SPORTS

There's a formula to every Penn State women's basketball win so far this season. Ask Amanda Brown to define it -- she's a science major.

About 10 minutes after Joe Paterno said that hiring Rene Portland was one of the best things he accomplished in his tenure at Penn State -- and got the Bryce Jordan Center rocking by raspily imploring the Lady Lions to "Beat Michigan State!" -- it appeared as though Paterno's team's offensive struggles were contagious.

It was just another Penn State-Northwestern game.

Penn State's six-year win streak at the Nittany Lion Invitational Tournament (NLIT) may have been in jeopardy, but it responded with a game-winning goal in Saturday's championship game.

The Penn State Duals on Saturday did not live up to the name. It was as if Penn State was competing and the other teams were just sitting and watching.

Not only did the Penn State men's volleyball team defeat two tough opponents on its home courts this weekend, it prevailed over fatigue as well.

The give-and-take of the swimming season is embodied by the awards taken for effort given, the give of the water against strained muscles and the breaths inhaled to take another stroke.

The Penn State men's swimming and diving team defeated Rutgers, 143-99, Saturday, but not in the convincing fashion the Lions would have liked.

Penn State's women's indoor track took another positive step to defending its Big Ten championship Saturday at the Penn State Women's Open held at the Horace Ashenfelter III Indoor Track.

Home, sweet home -- a fitting phrase for the Penn State men's gymnastics team after cruising past Temple and Navy on Friday at Rec Hall.
