Notre Dame (21-14) vs. Penn State (25-11) – CDT
After a long and hopefully helpful rest, the Nittany Lions are back on the hardwood tonight at New York’s Madison Square Garden for the NIT semi-finals. They have not been since 2000, losing to tonight’s opponent Notre Dame in same round. The next year, Penn State made a Sweet 16 run in the NCAA tournament.
The Nittany Lions better not be in awe of Madison Square Garden because Notre Dame, a member of the Big East, is quite familiar with it — this year the Fighting Irish played there three times. Penn State did win in hostile Florida and I don’t expect the Garden crowd to favor either team overwhelmingly, so there is hope there.
And they’re off for New York – CDT
Twelve buses full of Penn State fans left for New York at noon today from the Bryce Jordan Center. I took that trip twice and had fun both times. It s shame we don’t have a railroad in Happy Valley, that would be even better.
