Philly brought the energy.
Now it’s Pittsburgh’s turn.

Happy Valley United is coming to the Steel City for a one-of-a-kind Penn State Football fundraiser — and we’re calling on all Western PA Nittany Lions to show up louder, stronger, and prouder than ever.

Join us on June 11, right before the U.S. Open, for a night of team spirit, great company, and big-time support for our student-athletes. Let’s show everyone that when it comes to backing Penn State Football — Pittsburgh doesn’t play second fiddle.

We Are… in Pittsburgh. Let’s outdo Philly.

Bragging rights are on the line — see you there.

Check out our silent auction where you can win the opportunity to go to the US Open!

You do not have to be present at the event to bid or win auction items.

🔺 Game 1 Won. Penn State baseball picked up a win in the first game of its series against Xavier on Thursday, 7-1.

Matt Maloney contributed four hits, including a two-run double, and Penn State pitchers held Xavier to just four hits. The Nittany Lions and Musketeers are back at it today at 6 p.m. in Harrisburg.

🔺 B1G Race Day. The postseason has arrived for Penn State track and field, which is in Eugene, Ore., this weekend for the Big Ten Championships at historic Hayward Field.

🦁 ONE BIG THING

🔺 Stand Still. Who here remembers the mannequin challenge from 2016?
