Penn State may have saved its NCAA Tournament hopes with a huge road win at Northwestern on Wednesday night. Camren Wynter’s game-winning shot in the final second of overtime put a much-needed road win against a good quality opponent likely heading to the tournament on its resume and with just one game left to play in the regular season, Penn State still has a shot at playing its way into the big dance.
Penn State still has one final game left to play in the regular season before heading to the Big Ten tournament next week, but the win over the Wildcats kept Penn State out of the bottom four seeds in the conference tournament. Penn State will host Maryland on Sunday for the regular-season finale. A win at home against the Terps should have Penn State feeling a little more confident heading to the Big Ten tournament, but topping the Terps will not be easy for Jalen Pikcett and the Nittany Lions.
