College Basketball: Lucas' 39 points lead Penn St.

 The odds weren't good for Maggie Lucas on the break against two backpedaling Georgetown Hoyas before one defender tripped and Penn State's prolific shooting guard stopped suddenly in the lane to create space for an easy jumper.

Whether wide open from the corner for threes or creating havoc in transition, Lucas, a Germantown Academy product, was a problem all day for Georgetown in the 10th-ranked Lions' easy, 97-74 victory Sunday afternoon in State College, Pa.

Lucas set a career high and Bryce Jordan Center scoring record - for men and women - with 39 points, backcourt mate Alex Bentley added 23, and Penn State's potent transition game throttled the Hoyas early.

Lucas had 26 points in a first half in which Penn State (7-2) led by as much as 34.

"I'm always like, 'More Maggie,' especially when she's hot," Bentley said. "The girl can shoot. I'm so happy when she gets nights like these."

Lucas was 11 of 21 from the field, including 7 of 13 from three-point territory. Five treys came in the first half, shattering the Georgetown zone.

Sugar Rodgers scored 24 for Georgetown (7-3), which had its three-game winning streak snapped.
