Less than a week after experiencing the joy of earning his first-ever win as Penn State’s head coach, Micah Shrewsberry experienced the brutality of an embarrassing beatdown at UMass for his first-ever loss as head honcho. Tonight’s game against St. Francis (Brooklyn) presented an opportunity to wash the bitter taste out of his and the rest of his team’s mouth and get back on the winning track.
It was a clunker early on as both teams struggled to hit shots from the floor, as the Terriers seemed to constantly hang around within 4-6 points for most of the half.
