Penn State football coach Joe Paterno will tell you it's still too early to get a grasp on the quality of this year's team. Posted: Saturday, Sept. 18, 2004 @ 7:50 p.m. Two games in two days against two different opponents in one location. That is exactly what the Penn State men's rugby team (3-0) will be facing when it goes up against Kutztown University and Radford University this weekend in Kutztown. The Penn State field hockey team is looking to carry over its momentum from Wednesday's victory against Temple into its two intrastate matchups this weekend. So, what was it last weekend? What needs to be fixed? Four games. Four double-overtimes. One win. Before this season started, there were some choice words Penn State coach Joe Paterno often used when he talked about the performance of his wide outs in 2003. With six straight conference titles under its belt, the No. 5 Penn State women's soccer team (4-1) is a target for the rest of the Big Ten. Alex Haynes walked onto the Beaver Stadium grass in 2002, finally used to his surroundings. In 1994 the Penn State's women's soccer team started its rather smooth transition from club team to the Big Ten. The No. 5 Penn State women's volleyball team (6-0) looks to extend its unbeaten streak tonight against The University of Maryland-Baltimore County. Some freshmen athletes report to college and it takes them some time to adjust to life on their own. They have trouble finding buildings and are worried about making new friends. Typically, the first sanctuary they find is on the playing field. In some ways, the Penn State football team is where it was this time last year -- it has a 1-1 record and is trying to rebound after an unexpected and disappointing loss to Boston College.

Those online quizzes are a great use of technology, eh? To say that Cellular is a terrible movie would be a lie, but to say it is a great movie isn't exactly the truth either. Listen up frat boys and professors who haven't had a date since 1972 -- this one's for you. TV Review Album Review It was a little more than 15 years ago when the now top-ranked business chain in the world first broke ground in State College. Back then Wal-Mart nipped at the heels of other chains, vying for its place in successful retail history.
