The Penn State Nittany Lions proved that their run to the Big Ten Tournament title game was not a fluke with a 76-59 win over 7th-seeded Texas A&M on Thursday night. The Nittany Lions shot lights-out from 3pt range, hitting on nearly 60% of their long-range attempts. The win was the first in the NCAA Tournament for Penn State since 2001. The veteran Nittany Lions squad was led by a record-setting night by senior Andrew Funk. Funk hit eight three-point field goals in the game to break the school record for three-point field goals in a game. Funk finished with 27 points overall, the most ever by a Nittany Lions player in the NCAA Tournament. All-American Jalen Pickett had another stat-stuffing performance with 19 points, seven rebounds, and eight assists in the win. Pickett played the entire game and failed to commit a turnover.
“I thought our attention to detail on defense and offense was really good, and that' s the benefit of having an older group of guys that can execute a scouting report on offense and defense, and we did that. We played hard and we gave ourselves a chance to win.” PSU head coach Micah Shrewsberry said after the win.
