STATE COLLEGE — Jarvis Summers scored a career-high 27 points, and Dundrecous Nelson added 14 to lead Mississippi over Penn State 72-70 on Sunday night.

The Rebels (7-1) used a 12-5 run over the final 4:14 to seal it. The lead switched three times in the last 1:36, but Summers’ three-point play with 34 seconds remaining put Mississippi ahead for good.

Tim Frazier tallied 17 points and Sasa Borovnjak added a career-high 15 off the bench for the Nittany Lions (6-3), playing at home for the first time in 11 days.

Down 35-34 at the break, Penn State began the second half on a 14-5 run.

The Rebels, who entered the game shooting 20 percent from 3-point range, were 11 of 24 (45.8 percent) from beyond the arc.

Penn State committed 15 turnovers but outrebounded Mississippi 34-30.

The Rebels had the size advantage, with all but one player on their roster standing taller than 6-foot-4.

“I just thought (Penn State was) tenacious,” Mississippi coach Andy Kennedy said. “That was strictly effort and being tenacious and throwing bodies.”
