🔺 In-State Battle. It’s a battle for Pennsylvania this afternoon in College Park, as No. 22 Penn State women’s lacrosse hosts Pittsburgh at 4 p.m. at Panzer Stadium.
The two teams have played twice before, with the Lady Lions taking both contests in 2022 and 2023.
🔺 Program Pillar. Penn State mourns the loss of former baseball coach Joe Hindelang, who passed away on Friday night at the age of 78.
Hindelang served as head coach of the Nittany Lions from 1991-2004, compiling a program-record 389 wins and a 1996 Big Ten regular season championship.
🔺 Maloney The Man. Penn State catcher Matt Maloney hit .625 with a home run and 11 RBI on opening weekend.
So yeah, he’s the Big Ten Player of the Week!
