The Nittany Lions were impressive in non-conference play, going 12-1 with the only loss being a double-OT loss to Charlotte on Nov. 20. In Big Ten play, PSU has had opportunities, as six of their eight losses have come by two possessions or less or in overtime, including a two-point loss at Illinois last Saturday and a 64-58 loss at Maryland on Wednesday. Penn State has won its last two home games, a 79-51 win over Rutgers and a 63-58 win over Minnesota on Jan. 28. Wednesday’s game at Maryland started a stretch where four of their next five opponents were against ranked squads. The Nittany Lions feature one of the top scorers in the Big Ten in fifth-year senior D.J. Newbill, who leads the conference in scoring at 21.3 points per game. The 6-foot-4 guard also tops PSU in assists with 3.1 per game and chips in 4.9 rebounds per game. Junior Brandon Taylor, who missed two games before returning to action against Maryland, is second on the team in scoring at 9.9 points per game and is tied with Shep Garner for the team lead with 37 3-pointers. Ross Travis paces PSU with 6.4 rebounds per game. Quote Link to comment
