Jay Paterno Promoting Penn State Lacrosse

Bookmark and Share Printer Friendly Feb. 21, 2013

Jay Paterno has become a big fan of Penn State Lacrosse. Here is part of what he had to say in his recent article on StateCollege.com ...

I have my plans set for Sunday. Penn State’s men’s lacrosse team is off to an impressive 2-0 start with wins at Michigan and over top-10 ranked Denver in Jacksonville last Sunday. Anyone who watched that game on NBC Sports Network realized how dominant Penn State was in that contest.

The win vaulted Penn State to a No. 8 national ranking under third-year coach Jeff Tambroni. After legendary long-time coach Glenn Thiel retired, former athletic director Tim Curley heard from lacrosse people all over the country that Tambroni was the guy to get. Now in his third year with his system fully in place, the wisdom of that hire is now bearing fruit.

I am urging as many people as possible to get there on Sunday. Lacrosse is the fastest growing NCAA men’s sport in the country, and Penn State’s men’s program is well positioned. With the first phase on the new stadium facility done, a huge show of support for the program can spur it to a win Sunday. But in the long term, the support will encourage the current athletic administration to follow through on the next phases of the stadium project.
