Coming off an encouraging showing in Florida, Penn State struggled to get anything going against Miami Wednesday night and lost 63-58 at the Bryce Jordan Center.
The Lions trailed 29-23 at the half, and although they led at multiple points in the second half, they could never pull away from Miami. A three-pointer by Miami’s Kameron McGusty with 38 seconds left put the Hurricanes up 63-58 and proved to be the dagger.
John Harrar led Penn State with 16 points and 12 rebounds for his fourth double-double in seven games. Seth Lundy added 14 points. For Miami, 6-10 Sam Waardenburg led the way with 14 points, and McGusty, Charlie Moore and Isaiah Wong added 12.
