UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - No. 9 Penn State defeated No. 19 Ohio State in straight sets (25-21, 25-20, 25-17) Wednesday evening in an atmosphere that isn't typically seen in Rec Hall.
Pink shakers and pink t-shirts covered the stands. The wRECking crew and Pep Band sported pink hard hats. The Nittany Lions warmed-up in light pink jerseys and wore black and pink socks as well as pink bows in their hair throughout the match. Head coach Russ Rose pinned a pink ribbon to his polo shirt. Ohio State even wore pink-colored jerseys.
In total, Penn State's annual 'Dig Pink' match raised more than $4,000 for the Side-Out Foundation for breast cancer awareness.
