No. 2 Ohio State is in the driver's seat for a Big Ten title, and the Buckeyes will look to extend their winning streak to 13 games when they travel to Penn State on Thursday.
The game will be played at the historic Rec Hall, which opened in 1929 and was the home of both basketball teams until the Bryce Jordan Center was built in 1996.
The Buckeyes will have had more than a week off when they face the Nittany Lions. Ohio State last played on Feb. 14 in a 80-47 win over Nebraska.
Cotie McMahon reached double figures for the 19th time this season and finished with 20 points against the Cornhuskers. She added 10 rebounds for her fifth double-double of the season. It was her sixth 20-point performance of the season.
Rikki Harris recorded her fifth double-figure game of the season by tying her season-high 11 points.
The Buckeyes were stellar defensively and forced more than 20 turnovers for the 17th time this season.
Ohio State's 12-consecutive Big Ten wins is the program's most since the 2006-07 season, when the Buckeyes won 13 in a row.
Penn State is still playing to get into the top half of the conference standings. The Nittany Lions are coming off a disappointing, 77-62 loss to Maryland.
