Defeating Colgate 14-9 on Saturday afternoon in Happy Valley, the Nittany Lions’ attackman took the spotlight to begin the season on a high note.
Penn State and the Raiders opened the game trading goals. In the second quarter, however, the blue and white stepped on the gas with eight goals to close out the first half leading 10-5.
