🏀 The Nittany Lions roared to the program's first NCAA Tournament victory in 22 years. MarchMadness
Texas A&M had won 10 of 12 as it entered its first NCAA Tournament since 2018. The seventh-seeded Aggies lost in the first round for only the second time in nine appearances since 2006.
“As yucky as this game was, I think we will look back at what has transpired the last 75 days with great memories,” coach Buzz Williams said. “What has transpired since then has been so good. As time goes, we’ll look back at that.” Pickett played another strong all-around game with 19 points, eight assists, no turnovers and seven rebounds.
The Lions' offense ran just the way Shrewsberry likes it, with the threat of 6-foot-10 Kebba Jjie in the post creating space on the perimeter for Funk, Dread and Seth Lundy to do what they do best. Dread and Lundy had two 3s apiece and Penn State finished 13 of 22 from long distance.
