In Case You Missed It...


...and most of you probably did, Penn State won it's second men's volleyball national championship on Saturday night! Please hold a second while I swell with pride........okay, I'm good. Just a couple of tidbits for you to share with all of your comrades at work who are dying to hear this info:

  • Penn State is the only program outside of the state of California to have both it's men's and women's programs win volleyball national championships (the men have now won it all in 1994 and 2008, and the women won it in 1999 and this past fall in 2007).
  • Penn State is just the second school to win the NCAA men's and women's volleyball national title in the same academic year, joining Stanford in 1996-97. The NCAA began sponsoring women's volleyball in 1981.

And, on a final "oh how sweet it is" note, Penn State beat Ohio State in the national semifinal....for the third time this year! Not that I'm counting or anything.

For the Glory!
