UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Thanks to a late rally in the tug of war battle, the Nittany Lion offense edged the defense, 31-30, in a six-event, head-to-head strength and conditioning competition to benefit the Kidney Cancer Association through Penn State's chapter of Uplifting Athletes.

For the fifth-straight year, the funds raised at Lift For Life were on pace to reach new heights following another superb event on Saturday. With donation figures still to be finalized, the 2015 Uplifting Athletes fundraising efforts have lifted the 13-year total well above the $1 million mark.
