Penn State 58, Pennsylvania 47
: Jermaine Marshall scored 18 points, making 9-of-10 free throws, as the host Nittany Lions held off the in-state rival Quakers.

Marshall was 4-for-4 from the foul line in the final 2:12 while D.J. Newbill and Brandon Taylor added 13 and 11 points, respectively, for Penn State (4-3).

Tony Hicks led Pennsylvania (2-6) with 10 points. The Quakers shot just 21.7 percent (5-for-23) from 3-point range.

Marshall scored five points during a 9-1 run as the Nittany Lions opened up a 23-16 lead with six minutes left in the first half. After entering halftime with a nine-point advantage, back-to-back dunks from Newbill helped to push the lead to 35-23 just 3:23 into the second half.

Six straight Pennsylvania points halved the deficit and two free throws from Dau Jok pulled the Quakers within 43-39 with 7:26 left, but three straight baskets by the Nittany Lions and Marshall’s four free throws down the stretch sealed the victory.
