Jamari Wheeler rings the victory bell … Takes down Huskers

Only one Nittany Lion really showed up in the first half.

So, Jamari “Rang the Victory Bell” tonight, keeping Penn State Basketball in the game.

The senior stepped up, and appeared to be the only player not afraid of the tournament atmosphere.

Wheeler had 10 points, an assist, one rebound and a steal in the first half, including 4-9 from the field (2-4 from 3). Without his offensive in the first half, this game may have been over. Wheeler finished with a game high 19 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and a steal.
