This drop in the rankings came after Penn State suffered its first defeat of the season against then-No. 21 Virginia on Thursday. The Nittany Lions lost 2-1 against the Cavaliers, who have risen to No. 7 in the latest rankings. However, Penn State responded by beating West Chester 5-0.
The Nittany Lions will return to action at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 29, to take on West Virginia at Jeffrey Field. This game will be the last home game of their five-game homestand before they hit the road for the first time this season on Sunday, September 1, to take on Saint Louis.
