University Park, PA., Sept. 26, 2008. An ouch of a headline from gopsusports, but the #1 Penn State women’s volleyball team nonetheless opened up the Big Ten season with a win, defeating No. 19 Purdue in three games (25-12, 25-15, 25-21) at Rec Hall in front of a season-high 5,800 fans. “The Nittany Lions improve to 13-0 on the season and remain undefeated in individual sets (39-0). They also increase their Big Ten winning streak to 26 matches and their overall winning streak to 39 contests dating back to a five-game loss to Stanford in New Haven, Conn., on Sept. 15, 2007.”
