Never in the 12 seasons since Penn State joined the conference has the Big Ten wrestling tournament been so wide open or hard to predict. AMES, Iowa - Senior forward Glenn Zuck's head dropped. Penn State Icers head coach Joe Battista slumped off the front of the bench, his arms crossed, shaking his head in disappointment. Penn State men's basketball coach Ed DeChellis got the type of gritty performance necessary to win on the road, but Marlon Smith's career-high 26 points still left the Nittany Lions a little short in a 71-64 defeat last night at Ohio State. It wasn't supposed to be a spectacular season for Big Ten basketball. But it wasn't supposed to be this weak either. Seeding in the NCAA tournament is important in every sport, but it is a lot more important in men's volleyball because the tournament begins with the Final Four. With a loss, the No. 10 Penn State men's volleyball team (10-5) has hurt its chances at earning a high seed come May. No 15 Ohio State (10-6) swept Penn State in its final match before spring break in three games (25-30, 23-30, 28-30). Topped by No. 2- and 3-seeds Purdue and Ohio State, the bottom bracket of the Big Ten women's basketball tournament will not be lacking in excitement as Purdue will be on a mission for redemption, while Ohio State will look to continue rolling. As Penn State is in the top half of the bracket, only one of these teams could potentially face the Lions again, if they make the title game. Freshman forward Rochelle Johnson, who was not on the bench during the Penn State women’s basketball team’s 69-60 victory against No. 6 Purdue Sunday, will not be with the team for the post-season play, Penn State women’s basketball coach Rene Portland indicated Tuesday. Penn State Athletic Director Tim Curley has been selected to participate on a special NCAA task force that will review Div. I recruiting bylaws. 
Proposed U.S. bill opens door to drawn-out, personal politics My Opinion: Kris Ankarlo Letters to the editor
In preparation for its annual Earth Day festival, Penn State Eco-Action is sponsoring a fund-raising event featuring live music at 7:30 tonight at Webster's Bookstore Café, 128 S. Allen St. Imagine a Penn State student who, in addition to finishing his academic career with a degree in sociology, is also launching his own record label and releasing his first solo album. If money really does make the world go 'round, what are the chances of the stereotypically poor college student being able to afford a round-trip ticket to paradise this spring break? Spring break. According to a press release from the United States Hot Rod Association, Monster trucks are more than 10 feet tall, 12 feet wide and weigh as much as 12,000 pounds. They cost an average of $150,000 to construct, and their tires are nearly as tall as the average man. When they soar off a ramp, monster trucks fly up to 25 feet into the air and can travel as far as 130 feet. When I was six, one of my friends and his parents dragged me to a monster truck rally. This weekend, Jim Donovan, drummer for the Pittsburgh-grown band Rusted Root, will bring his knowledge and skill to Centre County. For anyone needing a good shot of culture, tonight's concert could be worth checking out. Northern California is not exactly known for churning out country and bluegrass bands. Neither is Germany. If you want the best -- and I mean the very best -- coffee in town, there's only one place you can go. It isn't Starbucks. It isn't Daily Grind. It isn't even Irving's Bagels. Sometimes you just need to play Tecmo Bowl. Goodbye, obscure emo tunes and angst-ridden alternative songs of yesteryear. The Bryce Jordan Center (BJC) is the largest venue within a hundred miles of State College. Every year, it hosts 36 performances, in addition to numerous athletic and academic events. But under this sizeable schedule is a lot of sweat and tears. Tickets are now on sale for the 2004 T.J. Maxx Tour of Gymnastics Champions live at the Bryce Jordan Center at 7 p.m. on Sept. 25. Gilbert and Sullivan’s comedy classic The Mikado arrives at 2:30 p.m., March 18 at Eisenhower Auditorium. My Opinion: Jay Barimani
