All going to plan this weekend ...

MBB loss
GYMNASTICS 4th out of 4
Wrestling losing
WBB losing

Hope the WBB pull it out.

Not a total loss as RU beat Brown.

 

[MADHAT1]

NEED TO TURN THIS AROUND
PSU 27- ru 19

 

[ScarletDave]

Refs took over in first quarter, penn state shot 15 free throws of their 21 it feels like. Penn State the worst 3 point shooting team in the league, is 4-6 from 3 so far. We have bricked all of our 5 or 6 threes. That’s the story so far

catching up 31-28 PSU BY 3

Any word on where Calhoun is? Not even on the bench

Just tuned in to the radio coverage. Anti-jinx anonymity: Someone appears to have come out of her slump.

 

[ea_1]

I don´t remember Mack getting so many rebounds in the previous games this season.

 

[ea_1]

54-44, oops 56-44 RU. Keep it going Scarlet Knights!

 

[RUTrack94]

Wrestling won 2 bouts late to make the score respectable (don’t expect to beat MN and looked like it would be a route). Great to see the women grab the lead!!!!!

 

[Abro1975]

End of 3, RU up 56-46

OT: Indiana squeaked out a win at home against MSU; they are now 3-0 in B1G.

She’s a fighter. Love her to pieces

19 points now no one else in double figures
Cryor with 9 but 6 assists and 4 steals to her credit

edit: Guarantees breaking out of her slump in spectacular fasion

Is this a new nickname? Let´s hope it applies the rest of her RU career.

OT #2: LSU beat #21 TAMU. Good for our team sheet come selection time--not that I´m looking ahead (of course not). Also VaTech lost a 2-pt OT game to #14 Syracuse. Our RPI should continue to rise.

4 min to go, RU up 69-59

A heck of a bounceback game for her, she was very cold against Brown. She is very skilled, now just has to be consistent.
I think Criani Cryor has been the biggest difference since she returned from her 'layoff'.

Zippy is still finding her groove, and will learn from Cryor.

 

[RUTrack94]

Thanks, ladies! Always great to PSU!!!!!!

OT #3: Illinois dominates 4Q to beat #12 Minnesota in MN.

I like to see the rest of the B1G beat itself up - keep us towards the top

 

[APKnight]

Nice win ladies, again!

 

[RU MAN]

Way to go ladies! I wasn't able to follow the game, as I was bringing my son back to college today out here in Southern California. Great win and I believe we will be ranked tomorrow. Great win!
