NEWS

One of the only places where the Ohio State fight song could be heard this weekend was in HUB Heritage Hall as Penn State and Ohio State students joined forces to donate their time to the community.

Penn State football was on top of the world Saturday night as the Nittany Lions defeated longtime rival Ohio State -- and so were many of their high-flying fans.

Twelve hours after Saturday night's game, the stadium suddenly lost its sparkle.

Those who want to vote in the Nov. 8 municipal elections have to register to vote by tomorrow, and some local officials are encouraging students to register in their home counties, not in Centre County.

Thousands of Penn State fans turned Beaver Avenue into Beaver Stadium Saturday night after the upset victory over the Ohio State Buckeyes.

This time, as they exited the field, the question marks that had been tattooed to their chests were suddenly invisible.

About an hour after No. 8 Penn State had rocked the college football universe with its 17-10 victory over Ohio State, the Nittany Lions' fans were still rocking Happy Valley.

A staple at the top of the Big Ten standings for the better part of a decade, it appears that the No. 2 Penn State women's soccer team have taken the necessary measures for an eighth consecutive conference crown following a sweep of Illinois and Iowa this weekend.

Taking a break from rain-drenched Happy Valley, the Penn State men's golf team will enter the warm confines of San Francisco for the McKenzie Intercollegiate starting at 8 a.m. today.

The Nittany Lion football team isn't the only squad with a powerful defense and an undefeated record at Penn State. The men's rugby team remained unbeaten following a win over Indiana University (PA) on Saturday.

Miss Cleo may want to hire the Penn State field hockey team the next time her future prediction service goes bankrupt.

Penn State men's tennis assistant coach Bill Potoczny said any win for his senior co-captain Mark Barry this weekend would be a big one.

Coming into the weekend vs. Northwestern and No. 8 Wisconsin, Sam Tortorello knew she was going to see somebody special.

In what was supposed to be its stiffest conference challenge to date, the Penn State women's volleyball team made quick work of Wisconsin at the UW Fieldhouse on Saturday. The No. 4 Nittany Lions swept the No. 8 Badgers (30-21, 30-25, 30-22) to move into sole possession of first place in the Big Ten.

W-I-N spelled relief for the Penn State men's soccer team this weekend, as it swept its first back-to-back weekend games against two Big Ten teams since 2001 when the Nittany Lions did the same task against Wisconsin and Northwestern.

If the tale of the Penn State men's soccer season was told in book form, you could have the story of the underestimated or the team that persevered. Until yesterday's game vs. Wisconsin, the story of senior captain Brian Devlin's season may have been best seen in Where's Waldo form.

The concept of sharing is something taught to every kindergarten student. The Penn State's women's soccer team must have missed that lesson though.

After Friday night's season opening win against No. 14 Mercyhurst, freshman forward Lukas DeLorenzo said his team had a "pretty good chance" of beating NCAA Division I team Robert Morris the following day.

All last year, while it saw its hard work spoiled week in and week out by its offensive counterpart, the Penn State defense begged for just enough points to give it a lead to defend.

The Penn State offense was far from a masterpiece of football art on Saturday, but it scrappily got the job done anyway.

In a close game such as Saturday's affair, a play or two can make a world of difference. The two plays that ultimately were the most crucial may have been the instances when Penn State's defense forced timely turnovers in the first and second halves.

It's been nearly six months since State College scene-staple and The Bullet Parade lead guitarist Charles Ramsey released his solo debut, Something New.

Friday night, Ohio State fraternity band Of A Revolution (O.A.R.) took a few minutes near the beginning of their 90-minute set to let more than 7,000 fans get their chants and boos out of their systems.

Despite living on campus for three years, Jaime Segal said she didn't know about the cultural lounges in any of the housing areas.
