A Team Effort Sends Nittany Lions to NCAA Regionals

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Behind a balanced offense and a valiant team effort, the Penn State women's volleyball team defeated Dayton (25-17, 13-25, 25-14, 25-17) in the NCAA second round on Saturday night in Rec Hall."[Dayton] entered the match with the longest winning streak in the country," said head coach Russ Rose. "We knew that it was going to be a tough match...Dayton is a terrific opponent, and we feel fortune to advance. We know it's never a given. It's always hard. Every match has its challenges and this one is no different. I'm really thrilled with our effort tonight, how we competed, especially after playing as poorly as we did in the second game.
