This has been one lousy start to a season that was supposed to be — at least in the team's mind — a complete 180-degree turnaround from last year.

My opinion: Jeff Rice
The Nittany Lions will get a first hand look at many of their Big Ten rivals, and also see some of the Mid-Atlantic Regional competition.
Though the Boilermakers haven't defeated the Lions since 1987, Penn State woman's volleyball coach Russ Rose is fully aware that his team can not afford to be stuck thinking about their last game when playing a Big Ten team.
When you only get one home match in an entire season, you tend to look forward to it. So will be the case as the women's golf team tees up at this weekend's Nittany Lion Invitational.
If you want to be recognized as a good team, you have to beat lesser opponents.
On a night in which she surpassed the 1,000 kill plateau, Katie Schumacher looks back and recalls the one that got away.
After rain dampened the State College area earlier in the week, the women's rugby team is anxious and ready to get back on the field and finally play.

Letters to the editor
Toward the middle of Memento, one of the most involving and perplexing films in recent memory, the lead character is running but he has no idea why. He first assumes he is chasing after someone until he is shot at until he realizes he is the one being chased. Sound confusing?

Smells of incense and strains of a guitar waft through an open door at 216 Calder Way. The windows are a small museum. Sari skirts hang next to African carvings; wool sweaters next to gilded mirrors. And in front, a hand painted sign — Althea's Imports.

Karl is dead. This much we know immediately. Exactly who Karl is and why he has met such an unfortunate demise is the subject of the latest No Refund Theatre production, The Karl is Dead Show, a gleefully macabre musical-comedy from the quirky imagination of its writer-director, Nate Kushner (junior-English).
