The Penn State Nittany Lions came off a record setting night in their season opener against Winthrop that saw them make 18 three point shots. On Thursday, Penn State nearly did it again, as they made 16 three en route to another 90-point outing, the second in as many games.
Early in the game, it seemed like Loyola would keep things interesting. After opening up an 11-4 lead, Penn State found itself only up four midway through the first half, as the Greyhounds closed the game to a 17-21 score. From there, there was a little big of give and take, but Penn State would close the half up 11, 40-29.
