Well, it was rockin' here at Penn State on the first day of the Big Ten Championships. We had a very nice showing up and down the board. We head into the second day with many advancing to the finals in their track events, and several strong field events yet to come.
We are currently first in the team scoring with 47 points, while the Badgers are not far behind with 36. Indianna is third with 27, while Michigan sent several through to the finals tomorrow as well... they are in fourth with 19 points.
I'll continue to update tomorrow! Go Gophers!
