And we had a big bump in readership when George Brose featured my story of the 24-Hour Relay "24-Hours in Hell" on his Award-Winning Track and Field Blog. I would love to hear any more stories of that event from everyone! Thanks, George!
*Although not an ex-Nittany Lion, Ryan is an Assistant Coach and has trained in Happy Valley for many years, grooming several big guys to prominence.
Nice to see Cas dip under 1:45 and go after it in the final! Congrats to Darrell for making the final and hitting his all-time #2 throw, and major kudos to Joe for winning the whole darn shooting match! 19 points for PSU alumni at Nationals.
