Sunday night Penn State kicked off conference play by welcoming the Ohio State Buckeyes to the BJC. Entering the game the Buckeyes were riding high after rallying to defeat top ranked Duke earlier in the week, a victory that saw the Buckeyes shut the Blue Devils out in the final 5 minutes of the game.
While the Nittany Lions battled on Sunday night, a poor stretch to finish the first half proved to be the undoing for Micah Shrewsberry’s crew. Ohio State out scored Penn State 36-18 to finish the first half which proved to be too much for the Nittany Lions to overcome.
