YORK
Several college programs around the country have recently grabbed headlines by taking the facilities arms race to a new level: Central Florida plans to build a $25 million lazy river to lure recruits, for instance, and Clemson just constructed a $55 million facility that includes laser tag and mini golf.
Penn State Athletic Director Sandy Barbour said Monday not to expect those perks anytime soon in Happy Valley.
“That’s not who we are,” she said during a news conference at Penn State York on the first stop of the Penn State Coaches Caravan around the state.
