Penn State avoids potentially devastating loss

March 1, 2009

UNIVERSITY PARK — As senior night performances go, it is difficult to imagine anyone topping Penn State’s Jamelle Cornley. Prior to Saturday’s game against Indiana at the Jordan Center, he enjoyed a standing ovation, a handshake and hug from head coach Ed DeChellis, and then a long, emotional embrace with his mom. During the game, he hit the final two shots, including a baby hook that gave Penn State a 59-58 lead and a dunk that accounted for the final score, 61-58. And after the closer-than-expected victory, he addressed the near-capacity throng of 15,035 that stuffed the BJC. It was PSU’s largest home crowd since 2001. ‘‘I want to thank you for your support and I hope you continue to support YOUR team,’’ Cornley said. On this night, however, it was clearly his team.
