🔺 1% Better Each Day. We would face-plant and have to go see a dentist immediately if we tried to run bleachers inside Beaver Stadium.

Penn State football players make it look easy, though!

🔺 The Week That Was. Penn State baseball alum Conor Larkin was dealing this past week for the Vancouver Canadians!

Larkin, a member of the Toronto Blue Jays organization, has earned a Player of the Week nod in the Northwest League. In eight July appearances, Larkin had a 1.50 ERA with 15 strikeouts in 12 innings.

🔺 World Games. Penn State has two men’s gymnastics representatives at the 2023 FISU World University Games!

Rising junior Josh Karnes will don the Red, White & Blue and represent the United States, while rising sophomore Ian Raubal will represent Switzerland.

Congrats to both!
