Ohio State at Penn State live score updates, highlights, how to watch Big Ten game

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — Ohio State will play a familiar foe in a different place.

Thursday night, the Buckeyes will take on Penn State inside Rec Hall. It’s the former home of the Nittany Lions, one they moved out of in favor of the Bryce Jordan Center in 1996. It’s the fifth game for the men’s basketball program since it moved to newer digs, and the first time since then that the Buckeyes have visited.

Ohio State has won two straight games, while Penn State has lost two straight and six of seven.

Follow along with our Columbus Dispatch live game blog below.

Ohio State leads Penn State 16-11 with 11:26 left in the half. The start of the game has been highlighted by this sequence from sophomore center Aaron Bradshaw.

Freshman guard John Mobley Jr. has five quick points and an assist for the Buckeyes, who lead 7-4 at the first media timeout. Mobley has handled the ball more than Bruce Thornton in the early going, continuing a recent trend of the Buckeyes playing the junior more off the ball.

Thornton had the ball stripped on the last possession and, although he maintained possession, came to the bench shaking his left hand and grimacing with 15:26 left in the first half.

Here are tonight’s starters.

Ohio State: Bruce Thornton, John Mobley Jr., Micah Parrish, Devin Royal, Sean Stewart

Penn State: Ace Baldwin Jr., Nick Kern Jr., Freddie Dilione V, Zach Hicks, Yanic Konan Niederhauser

Here are some in-arena thoughts as Ohio State prepares to play Penn State.

Colin White still out for Ohio State

Freshman wing Colin White will miss his second consecutive game for the Buckeyes with a right leg injury. White suffered the injury at Purdue on Jan. 21 and watched the second half of that game and all of Monday’s win against Iowa with a walking boot on his leg.

Meechie Johnson Jr. will also miss his 11th game as he remains away from the team.

Penn State will be without Puff Johnson, who is missing his third consecutive game.

After her son died in car wreck, Ohio mom fought for public records

After her son died in car wreck, Ohio mom fought for public records

A mom searching for answers about her son’s death in a car wreck won a victory on Dec. 19 when the Ohio Supreme Court ordered the Richland County Sheriff to release records to her.

The court ruled in a unanimous decision that Andrea Mauk is entitled to three sets of records withheld by the sheriff, with only Social Security numbers being redacted. Mauk will be awarded $2,000 in damages but will not receive attorney fees.

On June 23, 2023, 18-year-old Damon Mauk lost control of his 1998 Ford Mustang and slammed it into a tree. His mother wanted to piece together what happened, collect his belongings and grieve the loss of her child. She didn’t think she’d have to fight for public records and take her case to the Ohio Supreme Court.

Following the crash, Richland County Sheriff’s deputies, a township fire department and the Ohio State Highway Patrol responded.

During the investigation, a trooper told a deputy to leave Damon’s iPhone and wallet in the car, according to Mauk’s court filings. Instead, the deputy took the belongings to the hospital and handed them off to someone who said he was Damon’s dad.

Mauk didn’t understand. Damon’s father was largely absent from his life. How could he have been there to pick up the wallet and phone?

A few weeks after the fatal crash, Mauk asked for records, including: the sheriff’s report and inventory of items taken from the car, body camera footage from deputies who gave away the belongings, the report, photos and videos created by the patrol and more.

Mauk, of the Mansfield area, received some but not all of the requested records. Mauk hired attorney Brian Bardwell to pursue records she believes exist but weren’t provided or were improperly redacted.

The sheriff’s office claimed that some of the requested records were exempt from disclosure because they are confidential law enforcement records or personal notes. The court privately reviewed the records withheld from Mauk and determined that they should be released.

The decision in favor of releasing records runs contrary to recent rulings from the high court.

In 2024, the court held that the cost of sending troopers to protect Gov. Mike DeWine at a Super Bowl game weren’t subject to disclosure and that the Ohio Department of Health should redact from a database the names and addresses of Ohioans who had died, even though that death certificate information can be released on an individual case basis.

In 2025 the court ruled that police officers’ names may be kept confidential if they’re attacked on the job, giving them privacy rights afforded to crime victims.

Menards to pay 10 states, including Ohio, $4.25 million in rebate settlement

Menards to pay 10 states, including Ohio, .25 million in rebate settlement

COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — Ohio is part of a multistate lawsuit settlement against home improvement store Menards.

According to the state Attorney General’s Office, Ohio and nine other states reached the settlement with Menards, a Wisconsin-based home-improvement retail store, over allegations of deceptive rebate advertising.

The 10-state led investigation revealed that Menards would give shoppers the impression that they were getting an immediate discount while shopping through its advertising, when in fact, savings actually came in the form of a rebate or in-store credit.

The investigation raised concerns with Menards’ marketing strategy and sales practices, alleging the following of the company:

Advertised 11% off or 11% off everything that suggested an instant price cut, even though customers received only a rebate on future purchases.
Listed prices already at an 11% discount, reinforcing the idea that shoppers were getting an in-store discount.
Failed to clearly explain the important limits of the rebate program, burying key details in the fine print.
Tell customers that Rebates International was a separate company handling rebates, even though it is operated by Menards itself.

The settlement, announced Thursday, included an agreement by Menards that it would, in part, discontinue ads suggesting immediate discounts, clearly explaining the rules, limits, and conditions of its rebate program, and offer customers an easier path towards claiming rebates, both in person and online, among other changes.

In addition, Menards will pay participating states $4.25 million in fees, of which $365,173.05 will go toward the Ohio Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Enforcement Fund.
