Women's volleyball clinches Big Ten title

The Penn State women's volleyball team won its 94th consecutive match on Saturday, sweeping Indiana, and in the process clinched its seventh-consecutive Big Ten crown.

Head coach Russ Rose has stressed all season that he wants junior middle hitter Arielle WIlson to get more involved, and she did so on Saturday with 13 kills and a .667 hitting percentage.

Alisha Glass led the Nittany Lions with 39 assists, but perhaps more impressive, the senior setter tallied four kills without committing an error.

The Lions won 25-22, 25-16, 26-24, the day after dropping their first set in over a month to Purdue.

The win this weekend, in all likelihood, clinched a pair of home games for the Lions in the first round of the NCAA tournament.
