UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. (AP) - Rebel freshman Jarvis Summers scored a career-high 27 points and Ole Miss pulled out another close victory with a 72-70 win at Penn State on Sunday.
Dundrecous Nelson added 14 for Ole Miss, which claimed the program's first road win ever over a Big Ten opponent.
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 Ole Miss 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.
Murphy Holloway posted his third straight double-double with 10 points and 11 boards. He has four double-doubles in eight games this season.
Penn State committed 15 turnovers but outrebounded Ole Miss 34-30.
