LEWISBURG — It was easy for Penn State coach Coquese Washington to say good things about the series with Bucknell following her team’s win. As for good things about her team: Well, they’ll have to wait. Penn State struggled early to open a big lead and late keeping one as it defeated the Bison, 77-62, for the third consecutive season Thursday night in front of 1,847 fans at Sojka Pavilion. “I just think we didn’t come with the right intensity and the right energy,” Washington said. “Some of that is the bus ride. It’s a different day for us and that’s a very high school thing to do. We’re used to getting in the night before and shooting around. I think that contributed a little bit to our sluggish start and we got to come and start the games better.” And finish better, too. “I didn’t think we closed the game particular well, either,” the third-year coach said.
