📈 STOCK UP

🔺 Crown Him. Penn State linebacker Kobe King has been named to the Butkus Award Watch List!

King was an Honorable Mention All-Big Ten selection last season with 59 tackles and six tackles for loss.

🔺 Hyped Up. The Big Ten has released its women’s soccer preseason coaches poll, and Penn State has been picked second in the conference, behind only Big Ten newcomer UCLA!

On top of the coaches poll, Olivia Borgen, Kaitlyn MacBean and Mieke Schiemann were named Players to Watch in the conference.

🔺 Coming To A Tee Box Near You. Mark those calendars — Penn State men’s golf has announced its fall schedule, including the inaugural Canadian Intercollegiate on Sept. 16-17 at Oviinbyrd Golf Club in MacTier, Ontario, Canada, which the Nittany Lions will co-host with Kent State.

🔺 Match Up. Patrick Sheehan is through to match play at the U.S. Amateur after shooting 1-under through two rounds at Chaska Town Course and Hazeltine National Golf Club!

🔺 Get Your Popcorn Ready. We’re only three days away now from Films on the Field — who’s planning on heading to Panzer Stadium this Saturday to watch Despicable Me?

🔺 Always Open. Only 17 more days until Penn State football is back on the field!

Allen Robinson was one of the most electric wide receivers in Penn State history, catching 177 passes over his three seasons in Happy Valley for 2,479 yards and 17 touchdowns!

🔺 Even Dozen. We’ll admit, this week hasn’t been quite as exciting without Penn State athletes competing in the Olympics. A school-record 12 former Nittany Lions won medals in Paris, including two gold, three silver and eight bronze!
