Following a superb senior season, Penn State volleyball's Aaron Russell was named a first team All-American by the America Volleyball Coaches Association for the second time in his Nittany Lion career.
Penn State loves to play in Happy Valley, and its record shows. The Nittany Lions are 17-26 (5-12 Big Ten) and 13 of those 17 wins are in Medlar Field. The Lions were home one last time to face a Rutgers team that was just below Penn State in the Big Ten standings, in dead last. Penn State was able to sweep the series on a beautiful senior weekend 8-1, 12-10, and 8-5.
Penn State women's lacrosse claimed the inaugural Big Ten championship with a 13-11 win over Ohio State.
Penn State won its 17th-straight EIVA Championship with a sweep of George Mason (25-16, 25-17, 25-17).
For the second time in two weeks, No. 7 Penn State women's lacrosse defeated seven-time national champions and ninth-ranked Northwestern, as a trio of Nittany Lions scored a hat trick to defeat the Wildcats 13-10 at High Points Solutions Stadium in Piscataway, N.J.
The loss concludes Penn State's first season in the Big Ten with a 5-9 record, including back-to-back wins over conference foes Rutgers and Michigan to qualify for the tournament.
