Penn State pulled away from Bucknell with a strong second half, and forward Lamar Stevens was the big star for the Nittany Lions!

After Bucknell kept the game close with a three-point deficit at the break, Penn State exploded for 53 points after halftime. Stevens set the tone the whole way, finishing with a game-high 27 points to go along with eight rebounds, three steals, an assist, and a block.

It was also one dunk by Stevens coming out of halftime that sparked Penn State. He made a nice baseline cut and blew past his man with the ball. Bucknell was late to rotate, leaving Stevens a clear path to the hoop.

He went up and threw down a vicious reverse slam with authority:
