Huh. What do ya know. I was there for that 2008 match.
Unfortunately, this one could very well be more exciting than that one was.

The Ivies field good volleyball teams. PSU will be wise not to overlook them in the first stop of the tournament. But I know Penn state will come out on top. Let’s go, State!!

Interesting timing, but Penn State Football just poached Kansas' offensive coordinator a few minutes ago. Hope disgruntled Jayhawk fans don't take it out on our volleyball team.
