It has been 1,070 days since the Penn State women's volleyball team lost to Stanford at the Yale Classic on September 15, 2007. Since that day, the Lady Lions have reeled off 102 straight match wins and have won three straight national championships.

It's not always the easiest to find out when stuff is going on at Penn State. While many organizations offer calendars of events, none of them are comprehensive, and you may miss out on a cool concert or exhibit if you're only checking one source.
OnwardState.com and The Lion 90.7fm are partnering to bring you PSUEvents.com. The new service will provide a centralized, open-source events database, free for media outlets serving the Penn State and State College communities. Student groups and other organizations will be able to submit their events on PSUEvents.com, and have them appear on any calendar using the service.
