Penn State Basketball seniors lead slugfest 55-50 over Maryland
By Evan Smith
John Harrar and Jamari Wheeler ring the victory bell!
This one is a draw between the two seniors, John Harrar and Jamari Wheeler.
Neither lit the box score on fire, but when you score nine points (Harrar) and 11 points (Wheeler) and your team only scores 55 points, every bucket was crucial.
Harrar finished with nine points and 12 rebounds as he continues what is really a redemption story in B1G play. And when Jones and Lundy combine to shot 2-17 (0-7 from 3), how BIG were Jamari Wheeler’s three 3 point shots?
And of course, Wheeler made two clutch free throws late to keep a two possession lead.
Neither Wheeler or Harrar are playing in the NBA next year, but dang they both dug deep to get us this victory.
