Heading to Florida for some real spring weather

The Nittany Lions leave for sunny Florida tonight at 6, and I'll be following in the morning. Matt Brown here, getting ready to fly down to Florida to cover Tuesday night's NIT third-round showdown between Penn State and Florida in Gainesville.

I'm making the drive back home to Bucks County tonight and my flight leaves Philadelphia International Airport bright and early at 7:55 a.m. and should arrive in Orlando by 10:45. From there, it's about a 1 hour, 45 minute trip north to Gainesville and the University of Florida.

I'm hoping nothing too eventful happens in my trip, but I'll be posting regular updates on the Hardwood Hits Twitter, along with a live blog here of the game from press row at the O'Connell Center. Also be sure to check the Collegian for stories from the game Wednesday and Thursday.
