📈 STOCK UP

🔺 Goooooooooal (x5). No. 3 Penn State women’s soccer cruised to a 5-0 victory over West Chester on Sunday, thanks in large part to freshman forward Aubrey Kulpa’s first collegiate brace.

Kaitlyn MacBean, Rowan Lapi and Elle Kershner also found the net for the Nittany Lions in the win.

🔺 Sunday Funday. Penn State men’s soccer picked up its first win of the season on Sunday, defeating Army 2-1 at Jeffrey Field.

The Black Knights struck first in the 16th minute, but back-to-back goals from Matthew Henderson (48th minute) and Caden Grabfelder (82nd) minute gave the Nittany Lions the come-from-behind victory.

🔺 Cheer ‘Em On. Penn State Athletics will host its second-annual Nittany Lion Fan Academy on Friday, Sept. 6 at 6:30 p.m. at Medlar Field!

The event is completely free and will be a chance for fans to get game day ready, learning traditions, chants, cheers and songs they will hear in Beaver Stadium and at all Penn State sporting events during the 2024-25 athletic year.

🔺 Pack Of Lions. Penn State cross country toes the starting line for the first time this season in less than two weeks — get to know this year’s group of runners!

🔺 Statsheet Stuffer. Only 5 more days until Penn State football is back on the field!

Cornerback Cam Miller will wear No. 5 again this season for the Penn State defense, after appearing in all 13 games last season and accumulating 24 tackles, three sacks and an interception.
