NEWS
[ Updated Monday, Nov. 13, 2006 ]

At 11 a.m. today on the HUB ground floor, the senior class gift was unveiled - a Celebration Garden at Rec Hall.

[ Monday, Nov. 13, 2006 ]

One man died and another was injured after their single engine, two-seat plane crashed Friday night in Snowshoe Township, north of Bellefonte, from undetermined engine problems.

The 38th annual Veterans Day Observance, hosted by the Penn State Veterans Organization, was held Friday afternoon as a way to remember and honor veterans.

The sound of "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" played as background music in the Nittany Mall's Bon-Ton yesterday afternoon as Penn State students tried to bring holiday cheer to local underprivileged preteens and teens.

The shrill squawks of cockatiels drift out of Wendy Cable's animal-filled basement as she completes the daily afternoon feeding of her many foster animals.

Staring intently at a table a few hours before Saturday's game, Penn State's players and coaches listened to the voice of their injured head coach. Joe Paterno, by way of speakerphone, had a message for his troops.

A juvenile has been arrested and charged for allegedly robbing the manager of a local restaurant at gunpoint in the business's parking lot at about 12:30 a.m. yesterday.

Wearing a rainbow-colored knit cap and holding a video camera, Christina Swomley approached two women heading into the Bryce Jordan Center and offered them a button reading, "I support student athletes."

On Friday night, Christina Talley took the stage in the Pollock Recreation Room and immediately insulted Carina Smith's mother.

The father of a Penn State student critically injured Oct. 28 by an alleged drunk driver said his son is slowly progressing and students are planning fundraisers to help with the medical bills.

SPORTS

After losing its second match of the season at Ohio State last Wednesday, the Penn State women's volleyball team returned home searching for its swagger.

Sarah Dwyer was at a loss for words.

As the 2006 season for the Penn State women's soccer team is coming closer and closer to the end, one player's own season seems to be just beginning.

Led by two top-20 finishes by freshmen, the Penn State women's cross country team finished in eighth place at the NCAA Mid Atlantic Regional this past Saturday in Lock Haven, the last team race this season.

Following the No. 3 Penn State ACHA Division I Icers' narrow 4-2 victory at Duquesne on Saturday night, it was safe to say that head coach Scott Balboni was not in the best of moods -- and rightfully so.

In reality, it was an intra-squad scrimmage, but every part of yesterday's Wrestle-Offs made it seemed as though that was not the case.

Old habits die hard.

Prior to Friday night's regular season opener against Morehead State, head coach Ed DeChellis told his players to play with energy, with a purpose, something he said the Penn State men's basketball team did not have in its two preseason exhibitions.

Over the past three seasons, many have become used to seeing Penn State's defense control the tempo of a game.

It was a dominating performance, a career day. But when Tony Hunt approached the media room, his on-the-field demeanor barely changed.

In 2004, freshman Mark Rubin was Penn State's most productive wide receiver. Two years and a broken collar bone later, Rubin is buried in the depth chart behind Derrick Williams, Deon Butler and Jordan Norwood.
