Penn State was hardly ready for Texas’ stamina and attack in its second NCAA Tournament match.
The Nittany Lions failed to take advantage of their first set win, losing the next three in a row as their postseason experience came to a close.

But Sunday night, the blue and white’s takeoff took longer than usual and the Nittany Lions and Longhorns matched each other blow for blow.
