UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.- In his first season as the head coach of the Penn State baseball team, Rob Cooper has continuously preached to his players about the process of becoming a winning team.

Part of that process is being able to stay focused and determined when things aren't going your way, and not just when things are rolling for you.

After a stretch in which they won 11 of 13 games from March 18 to April 8, the Nittany Lions rough spell against their Big Ten opponents continued this weekend against Minnesota, dropping three games by the scores of 2-1, 4-0, and 12-0.

"Winning is hard and it can seem easy when things are going good," Cooper said. "When things get hard a winning player will keep grinding away and I wouldn't change anything about our approach right now."
