UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa - The calendar has turned to 2017, and that means the Nittany Lions are finally ready to start their regular season. They open up this weekend at the West Point Open, an event they have won 18 times in 25 trips, and they appear locked in and cohesive as final adjustments are underway.
The Nittany Lions have won the event three straight times under head coach Randy Jepson, who liked to keep his message concise heading into the season-opening meet. He emphasized consistency and health as two of the major keys this weekend in order for the team to have success.
