Penn State wrestling coach Cael Sanderson was quite the grappler in his day. During his time at Iowa State, he won four straight national championships and did not lose a match, going 159-0. He went on to win the gold medal in the 2004 Olympics in freestyle wrestling. After his Nittany Lion team won the Big Ten Tournament earlier this month, Sanderson has forced to uphold a promise he made to his men by competing in the USA Wrestling Northeast Senior Freestyle Regionals which took place this past weekend. Even though he hadn't wrestled in a official match in seven years, he didn't seem to miss a beat.

He's also listed as a freshman wrestler for Cael Sanderson's national championship team.

There wasn't any monkey business for Jane Goodall at her visit to Penn State yesterday as part of SPA's Distinguished Speakers Series. To my personal disappointment, there weren't any monkeys at all. In fact Goodall studies chimpanzees, which aren't even monkeys. Her message was clear as she spoke a stirring proclamation of hope to the next generation of young activists. The Eisenhower Auditorium was all ears as she shared her vision of a more compassionate human race that focuses on the welfare of nature, animals and mankind.
