The rain showering down onto Ohio's Pruitt Field yesterday served as a fitting portrayal of not only the No. 19 Penn State (5-10, 2-3 ALC) women's lacrosse team's season, but also of the game. With the weight of the entire offense on their shoulders, the Penn State pitchers were bound to collapse under the pressures of pitching in one-run games with no margin of error. Late in yesterday's women's tennis match, Penn State junior Maaria Husain repeatedly yelled "come on!" to herself as her lead slipped away in singles play. The Penn State men's tennis team (13-9, 4-6 Big Ten) must have taken to heart the words Nittany Lions coach Jan Bortner used during practice last Wednesday. At the 2000 World Golf Championships Tiger Woods hit his famous "shot in the dark" on the 18th hole at the Firestone Country Club in Akron, Ohio. Don't tell the Penn State women's golf team that home-course advantage is overrated. Rarely has the Penn State club baseball team been challenged this year, much less pushed to the brink of extra innings. This weekend the Penn State men's track and field team participated in the festival of spring. After last Wednesday's season-ending press conference in which Penn State women's basketball coach Rene Portland indicated that changes would be made to the coaching staff, the resignation of assistant coach Rick Hall was announced on Friday. Four former Penn State football players got phone calls with good news from NFL teams this weekend. One down, four more to go. Nothing says spring in Philadelphia quite like Saturday at the Penn Relays. Fans, West Philly neighbors, and Penn students pour into historic Franklin Field to watch the marquee day of competition featuring the greatest track and field athletes in the world. It's hard to believe that in a team game like lacrosse one player can dominate an entire game. Anyone at Jeffrey Field on Saturday now knows otherwise thanks to Rutgers sophomore goalie Greg Havalchak. Paul Posluszny had a none-too-pleasant odor Saturday afternoon. As Joe Paterno will tell you, he is not often wrong. Condolences to those of you who purchased No. 22 jerseys last fall. And, Austin's Alliance, it looks like last year's shirts have to be scrapped. The four-game weekend looked like it was about to start out the right way for the Penn State women's softball team. My Opinion: Wade Malcolm Feature Photo
