News in brief

There was a time when boxing was the No. 1 varsity sport at Penn State. According to the Penn State boxing Web site, the team reigned supreme at Penn State from 1923 to 1954.

There was one final thing Penn State men's basketball coach Ed DeChellis told his team before taking the court last night against Edinboro.

We've all been there -- well at least most of us have. You went to a party at some point during the weekend and went just a bit too far. That last Solo cup sat in your hand with undying temptation over you, like your little alcoholic angel. You can't just leave without finishing what you started, how uncouth. All this races through your head, and you couldn't help but take that last gulp. Well, you should have helped it.

In his newest venture, he's hosting NBC's new game show, 1 vs. 100, which airs Friday night at 8.
