"I look forward to building on today as we train for the next three weeks leading into our last fall tournament weekend."
The Nittany Lions are back in action from November 3-5 in the final tournament weekend of the fall season. The team will split between the Kitty Harrison Invitational in Chapel Hill, N.C. and the Hokie Invitational in Blacksburg, Va.
