The Nittany Lions ended the season on a high note once again, topping the No. 15 Wisconsin Badgers on the road 31-24. The win clinched another winning season at 7-5 for Bill O'Brien in his second year as Penn State's head coach. Nobody -- including our staff here at Onward State -- expected or predicted an upset victory for the Nittany Lions in Madison on Saturday. After taking some time to digest what went down yesterday afternoon, we handed out some grades to the team for the last time this year.

Penn State battled back from a 3 goal deficit, but eventually fell to Union 4-3.

Maggie Lucas added one more accolade to her impressive pre-conference résumé and the Penn State Lady Lions defeated Illinois State 72-60 in Freeport, Bahamas to win the Freeport division of the Junkanoo Jam Championship.

Last night the No. 2 Women’s volleyball team continued their dominance and extended their winning steak to 19 consecutive matches in a 3-1 win over Nebraska.

Sometimes they say that you should save the best for last. Against the No. 15 Wisconsin Badgers on Saturday afternoon in Madison, the Penn State Nittany Lions did just that, pulling off a 31-24 upset win in the final game of the season to finish 7-5. For what seems like the first time all year, the team put together a complete game, succeeding on both offense and defense against one of the best teams in the conference and the nation to end the 2013 season on a high note with a shocking upset.
