Each Nittany Lion player and staff member was paired with a local child for the shopping trip and helped each child fill up their shopping cart with everything from toys, to clothes, to televisions and video game consoles.
 
Each child received $250 with which to shop thanks to generous contributions from local companies.
 
This is the third-straight year that the Nittany Lion basketball program has teamed up with Centre County Youth Service Bureau to help provide a holiday shopping spree for local youth.
