This past Saturday, Penn State's boxing club held its first home show of the season, with hopefully more to come. Boxers representing Penn State faced many opponents from many schools, including West Virginia University and the University of Maryland, as well as independent boxers from the Altoona boxing club. Most impressive were the women representing Penn State boxing. They came out of the corner swinging and did not let up for all three rounds, surely impressing everyone in attendance.
You've probably already had your Twitter feed and Facebook page blown up by the countless Valentine's Day posts, so I'll promise you that this isn't a cheesy love song playlist to serenade your lady. While some songs may loosely relate to the holiday, let's be honest, most songs have some underlying love theme.
Whether or not you have someone to celebrate with, here is this week's top tracks to play to get a little post-VDay action.
With a playoff berth on the line, the Penn State Icers took on Robert Morris (Pa.) last weekend. After taking the first game on Friday night, the Icers fell in game two on Saturday. Next up for Penn State is a trip to Rhode Island to play in the ESCHL Tournament, where they will play Delaware on Friday.
THON would not be possible without the hardworking efforts of everyone who took to the streets to go canning. Braving the cold, soliciting drivers, and coming up with the perfect canning dance are all challenges that canners must face in the search for that $20 dollar bill. But with all the challenges come memories that you'll remember forever.
So now, with a week to go until we storm the BJC, we'd like to take a look back at this year's fundraising season. We want to know:
What are your favorite canning stories from this last canning trip, or from this year?
Share your most memorable, emotional, or funny moments in the comments (or, if you have a longer story, send it in to the Community section!). We'll feature the best stories in a post over THON weekend!
The Penn State women's basketball team needed a big comeback and late-game heroics to beat Indiana on Sunday. Nikki Greene scored with 40 seconds to go to give the Lady Lions their first lead of the game, and Penn State went on to win 80-77. Next up for the Lady Lions is Ohio State on Thursday at 7 p.m.
It's that time of year again. THON is just days away, downtown stores are stocked with green apparel for State Patty's Day, and spring break plans are starting to shape up. But alas, this is Penn State, where football may be out of sight in February, but certainly not out of mind. Last night, the Daily Collegian released the four finalists for the 2011 Whiteout t-shirt, which students can vote on starting today and ending on Thursday at 5pm.
Check out all of the designs after the break, and let us know which one is your favorite.
