A strength coach will normally fly under the radar. They rarely do conference calls during a season and will never be mentioned the day after a loss for making a bad play call or not being prepared; however, when it comes to off-season conditioning, it is their time to shine.
With THON 2012 now two days behind us, we can once again say that THON 2013 is tomorrow. But before diving head-first into next year's preparations, we'd like to present you with a slideshow with some of Onward State's finest pictures from this weekend.
I had the opportunity to dance in THON 2012 this past weekend. For those who didn't see our post on Friday, I did so in memory of my uncle, Mark Tecce, who passed away at age five from a rare form of childhood cancer. This is what I want to tell him about my experience.
I think one of my favorite parts about THON is that when the weekend passes, and we all wake to a well-risen sun, whether we are alone, with a friend or a few, we are all thinking about the hours that just passed. Far too often, life is heavied by the constant pressure to always get more, veiling the world about us. THON Weekend elevates life absolute.
Are you a wanna-be politician? Does the idea of getting to play around with $120,000 excite you? Do you have an a wrinkly suite or a collection of repulsive ties? Are you a registered student at Penn State - University Park and free on Wednesday nights from 8-10 p.m.?
If you answered yes to any of those questions, perhaps you should consider running for a position in your student government, the University Park Undergraduate Association.
The Penn State women's basketball team clinched at least a share of the Big Ten regular season title for the first time since 2004 with an 84-66 win over No. 8/11 Ohio State on Monday night. Three Lady Lions had double-doubles in the dominating victory. Penn State plays its final game of the regular season on Sunday against Minnesota.
