Pryce Sandfort Leads No. 9 Nebraska to Win over Penn State

Freshman guard Pryce Sandfort made eight 3-pointers and scored 33 points as Nebraska shot 51.6%, improving to 23-4 overall and 12-4 in the Big Ten.

  • On Saturday, Nebraska defeated Penn State 87-64, ending the Nittany Lions' bid to beat a top-10 team on the road since 2009.
  • After a Tuesday loss at Iowa, Nebraska, led by Pryce Sandfort, who kept his hot shooting streak, started 6-for-6 on 3-pointers.
  • Sandfort's hot shooting—eight 3-pointers—paired with Braden Frager's 15 points and Sam Hoiberg's career-high 10 assists as Penn State's 11 first-half turnovers and 33% shooting hindered any comeback.
  • As a result, Nebraska's next test is Maryland midweek while Penn State returns home for Iowa on Saturday.
  • The victory moved Nebraska to 23-4 overall and into a tie for third in the Big Ten, as the Huskers led by 28 in the second half.
