He scored 42 points against Penn State that season, a performance that stood as a Bucknell modern-day record until broken by Hall-of-Famer Al Leslie in 1980. Wherry, who started for three years and co-captained the team in 1969-70, scored 1,346 career points. He was a graduate of Jeannette (Pa.) High School.Â
