Every time the Penn State football team's offense seemed to put the team in peril Saturday, the defense seemed to be there to bail it out.

The weekend started with a crushing loss.

There is one thing that is certain when the Penn State women's soccer team plays at Jeffrey Field -- it will win.

You never know what is going to happen in the Big Ten women's volleyball conference and Penn State found that out this weekend in two matches at Rec Hall.

Fans at the Greenburg Ice Pavillion rarely had to turn their heads to the right to follow the action during the first period of the Penn State Lady Icers' contest against Drexel Saturday night.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- After Saturday's win against Penn State, no one asked Ohio State running back Lydell Ross if he'd be challenging the NFL's policy about entering the draft.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Under Chris Gamble's entry in the Ohio State football media guide, it says the sophomore wide receiver "could play cornerback in an emergency."

No one was supposed to be able to do this to the Penn State offense.

It shouldn't be this easy.

"Wall, Wall, Wall" is just one of the unorthodox chants that can be heard coming from the mouths of the infamous fans from Section E. While most of the Penn State student body's attention is directed towards the football field, these proud supporters of the Penn State Icers have remained faithful.

The conditions at Jeffrey Field on Friday night were much like the bleachers -- freezing cold and wet.

Just when everyone thought the Penn State men's soccer team's season was over, that it faltered too much too early to really make a run at a national championship, well, think again.

Penn State women's swimming coach Bill Dorenkott summed it up best after losing Saturday's season-opener against the University of Florida at the McCoy Natatorium.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Being a Nittany Lion fan in Columbus Saturday was rough and hostile to say the least.
