Nittany Lion basketball wins 4th straight, 84-52

STATE COLLEGE — Penn State coach Patrick Chambers says the depth of his squad is improving so much that he doesn’t quite know how to handle it.

The Nittany Lions (5-1) won their fourth straight game Tuesday night, defeating Monmouth 84-52 with another balanced scoring attack.

Tim Frazier scored 19 points and Allen Roberts added 17 as the Nittany Lions held Monmouth to 22 second-half points and upped their record to 5-1. D.J. Newbill added 15 points and Ross Travis 11.

12 Penn State players saw playing time and 10 scored.

“I’m still getting used to it,” Chambers said. “For two years I played six guys.”

Roberts, who was the second man off the bench, complements Penn State’s established backcourt duo of Frazier and Newbill. He was 6 for 6 from the foul line and 3 for 5 from 3-point range.
