🔺 In A Flash. Penn State baseball ran into a hot Kent State team on Tuesday, losing 10-3 to the Golden Flash in front of another record-setting crowd at Medlar Field.
There were 5,025 fans in attendance, the first time in program history the Nittany Lions have crossed the 5,000-fan mark at a home game.
🔺 Down Two. Penn State softball had the tough task of going on the road Tuesday for a conference doubleheader at Ohio State, and dropped both games to the Buckeyes.
