Iowa 68, Penn State 51: Hawkeyes Pull Away Late, Sink Nittany Lions Back to .500

Anyone who tells you they are not impressed with what Micah Shrewsberry and the Nittany Lions have done thus far this season is lying. Even after a tough loss in Iowa City on Saturday afternoon the Nittany Lions still find themselves with a .500 record at 8-8 (3-5 in Big Ten play).

Saturday’s 68-51 final did not do the game justice. With 11:13 remaining in a game that had been close throughout, Myles Dread hit a three to cut Iowa’s lead to 44-41. Following this the Hawkeyes would finish the game on a 24-10 run to make the final score look more lopsided than the game itself was.
