Mike Wallz may well be one of the biggest, and busiest, personalities on campus. During his constantly moving life, he managed time to take a short break from his former group, Primary Element, to make his solo album The Free Life. Read Onward State's review after the jump.
It was not all positive as two of the most prominent Penn State athletes suffered injuries over the weekend, but overall, it was another memorable weekend in Penn State Athletics with several sports teams playing important games. All of the action is recapped below.
Kelly Burns, a Penn State alumnus, has put together an event called Morale For Mauti, an effort to boost Mauti's spirit as he deals with this injury, whatever the extent of it may be.
It was the perfect storm for irrelevance. A meaningless game in the national scene, a noon kickoff, and the weekend before Thanksgiving break had many people writing this game off. But as it turned out, it was one of the most newsworthy games of the year after senior leader Michael Mauti went down with a season ending injury. Here are my observations from the stands.
It was fitting that a quarterback and wide receiver who have had such a strong connection all season long would both reach milestones on the same day. Matt McGloin and his number one target, Allen Robinson, both set Penn State records in today’s game against the Indiana Hoosiers, treating those that stayed for the game to an explosive offensive performance in a 45-22 Penn State victory.

It was emotions and words that put things into perspective as players and coaches felt the pain of Michael Mauti's injury.
