In a historic afternoon in New Kensington, PA on January 24, Penn State Shenango (8-10, 4-6) delivered a masterclass performance, dismantling Penn State New Kensington with a final score of 100-74. The game was defined by two legendary individual achievements that rewrote the program's record books, as Shenango jumped out to a 56-39 halftime lead and never looked back.

The story of the day was Izzy Santiago, who put on an offensive clinic for the ages. Santiago shattered the program's single-game scoring record, pouring in a staggering 44 points. He was relentless from start to finish, shooting 18-of-31 from the field and connecting on five three-pointers. Santiago also added seven rebounds and three steals, putting together one of the most complete offensive displays in conference history. Matching that historical pace was Darius Williams, who orchestrated the offense with unprecedented precision. Williams broke the program's single-game assist record, dishing out a phenomenal 14 assists. His ability to dissect the defense and find open teammates was the engine behind Shenango's high-octane attack, ensuring that the offense remained in rhythm throughout the full 40 minutes. Williams also added eight points and seven steals, terrorizing New Kensington on both ends of the floor.

Beyond the record-setters, Shenango saw significant contributions across the board. Aidan Slocum was nearly perfect off the bench, scoring 16 points on 7-of-11 shooting while adding 10 assists of his own to record a double-double. Jordan Dotson provided reliable scoring with 15 points, and Devin Alston chipped in 11 points, including three makes from beyond the arc. Defensively, Shenango was just as impressive, forcing New Kensington into 31 turnovers and converting those opportunities into easy transition points. The team's ball movement was elite, tallying 33 assists on 42 made field goals—a testament to the unselfish play led by Williams and Slocum.

This record-breaking victory marks a major milestone for the program, showcasing the elite talent and chemistry of this year's squad. Shenango will look to carry this historic momentum forward as they continue their push through the heart of the conference schedule, with their next matchup on Wednesday at DuBois.
