In this story:


Lamar Wilkerson has only played at Indiana for one season, but the Sam Houston State transfer has etched his name in the program record books in several categories.

He already holds the Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall scoring record for his 44-point game on Dec. 9 against Penn State. And heading into Saturday's game at Ohio State, he's within reach of Indiana's single-season Big Ten scoring record and the single-season 3-point record.

Wilkerson needs 14 points againt Ohio State to pass Jimmy Rayl (1961-62) and Don Schlundt (1952-53) for Indiana's single-season Big Ten scoring record, and he needs seven 3-pointers pass Steve Alford's record of 107 3-pointers made during the 1986-87 season.
