Penn State went into halftime only down two points to #6 Michigan, but the Wolverines took “complete control” in the second half to advance in the Big Ten Tournament.

Trey Burke scored 21 points, while Nick Stauskas and Tim Hardaway Jr. both added 15 points in an 83-66 win over the Nittany Lions. The Wolverines led by as many 19 points at multiple points during the second half, as they outscored Penn State by a score of 48-33 during the final 20 minutes of play.

 The Wolverines advance to the Big Ten Tournament Quarterfinals, where they will get a rematch with the Wisconsin Badgers. Michigan lost the previous meeting between the two teams in overtime after Wisconsin’s Ben Brust hit a half-court shot at the buzzer to tie it in regulation.

Meanwhile, Penn State’s season has come to an end with the loss to Michigan. The Nittany Lions finish their season with an overall record of 10-21, with a conference record of 2-16.
