After a couple of exhibition games, the Penn State men’s lacrosse team thought they were ready for the real deal against Villanova in their season opener last Saturday.

The Wildcats proved to be just as ready as they pulled off an overtime upset in Happy Valley.  

Heading into week two of the season, leadership plans to rally the troops.

“As captains, it’s important for us to evaluate how we did as leaders, but also as a whole team just really getting together yesterday and evaluating how we did as a team. Ways we can improve and ways we can learn from the loss. Little bitter taste at the end of that game, obviously losing in overtime, but they’re a good opponent and we feel like we can learn from it. Go into this week and try to be one and oh this week against Hobart,” senior Tanner Peck says.
