Unhappy valley for Colgate
No Colgate players managed to reach double figures in Sunday's 66-48 loss at Penn State.

Kendall Chones led the Red Raiders with 9 points. Chones was 4 for 12 from the field, which was pretty reflective of the way Colgate shot the ball. As a team, the Raiders, the Patriot League's top shooting team, went 20 for 57 (35.1 percent) from the field. Ranked fourth nationally in three-point shooting percentage coming in, Colgate was 4 for 14 from the arc. The Raiders shot 6 free throws, making 4 and turned the ball over 19 times.

Kyle Roemer, Colgate's leading scorer, was 1 for 9 from the field, 0 for 4 on three-pointers, finishing with 5 points, 13 below his average.

Penn State didn't shoot a whole lot better. The Nittany Lions went 24 for 63 (38.1 percent) from the field, 6 of 18 from the arc. But the Nits were 12 for 18 at the foul line and held a 42-34 edge on the boards, with 16 offensive rebounds.

Willie Morse, Colgate's State College product, was 2 for 4 with 4 points in 16 minutes in front of the folks in his hometown.
