The Penn State women's basketball team earned one of its most impressive wins of the season on Sunday against Nebraska, winning 93-73. All five starters for the No. 25 Lady Lions scored in double figures against the No. 23 Cornhuskers. Penn State's next contest at Illinois (6-11, 0-4 Big Ten) is next Thursday at 8 p.m. Despite their record, Illinois is proving a tough team to beat in its last few games, two of which were within three points, and one that went to overtime.
It's hard to believe it was only last week when Penn State (9-10, 1-5) dominated a solid Purdue squad. Ten days and three losses later, Penn State is once again struggling to find their identity and keep up with the size and talent of the Big Ten.

Many of you are now familiar with the Penn State and Philadelphia sports blog known as The School Philly. Founded in August 2010 by a couple of ambitious Penn State juniors, most know them for their tendency to use the word "fuck", or for their renown PSU's Dime-a-Dozen section that profiles Penn State's hottest girls.
But just what makes these wordsmiths tick? What goes on behind bulwark walls of "The School Philly House", a remote College Avenue edifice that the founders of The School Philly and fourteen other stalwarts call home? These are the answers I sought, and so I arranged for a historic meeting to be held.
Yesterday evening, THON Overall Elaine Tanella released a statement declaring announcing mandatory Canning Workshops for all students who plan to participate in Canning Weekend #3. From Monday, January 16 to Wednesday, January 18, students canning will have to attend one of the 30-minute workshops (times listed after the jump). Tanella stated that the workshops will "overview safe canning practices, travel safety guidelines, general courtesy, and THON information," so as to ensure that each student is aware of and understands all canning policies.
However, why has the Overall Committee decided to institute these workshops, and is it necessary? Find out more information on the workshops and my thoughts after the jump.
