BLOG: From My View: Penn State Tune Up

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -

Saturday started off with a motivational quote from Coach [Patrick] Ebel, "Believe in yourself and let's get it done today.

This quote set the tone for the day whether it was in the circle, on the runway, or on the track. I think that today was definitely a tune up to say the least. We had many outstanding performances that will set us up nicely for the upcoming Big Ten Championships. The atmosphere today was great, like always. Everyone was engaged in all of the performances.

I think that many Penn Staters took huge steps today. For example, Jon Yohman throwing a season-best of 55-9.75 in the shot put. While warming up for shot put, it was nice to be able to cheer on Matt Fischer as he raced the clock in the 5k.

As Penn Staters, we definitely showed our pride as well as passion for each other. Across the board there were many improvements, personal bests, season bests and better performances overall.

As we enter the Big Team Championships, many were able to tune up or work on things that will help them later on in the week. What time is it? It's Big Ten Time!

We Are... Penn State
