That's more like it, now get that indoor record...
Senior co-captain David Pell led the way with a seasonal best in the high jump, equaling his indoor PR and the #3 performance in school history with a clearance of 6-11 (and an IC4A qualifier). He led a 1-2-3-4 Big Red sweep of that event as sophomore Garrett Huyler (6-7), sophomore Jim Smith (6-7) and freshman Jay Pierce (6-5) also scored.
MUCH BETTER GUYS!

track is upon us
so track season is just about to start for us old people. my first meet was supposed to be last week, but UH decided to cancel the meet due the account of them being retarded. im looking forward to the cornell cali trip. for now, im lifting/running as much as i can.
by the way sorry pete. apparently my source for the psu results, rayon, cannot convert from metric to feet.

The Wonders of Water
I am a bit skeptical, about the "follow your thirst" part, as I've always figured that if you're already thirsty, it's too late...

New Tagline...
Since we've been "Stingin' it since '04" that officially makes us 3 years old...and I think Paddy said it best...
"Yes that's an S cuz we Sting it when we Bring it"
Hence the new slogan "Sting it when we Bring it" I'm working on a new logo, as Poomps the Taco, our beloved mascot, may have been lost in a hard-drive failure...
*sniff, sniff*

Don't worry about that meet. No jumping for a few weeks, coming off a 10 hr drive. Good news was I opened at 6'7 no problem, bad news I didn't go any higher. A week back with the HJ and I should be back to form.
Basically what I'm saying is forget about this weekend and keep your eyes peeled for Penn St results. It's always interesting going against Fritz...
