Here's a recap of last night's thrilling come-from-behind victory over Illinois at Rec Hall featuring quotes from Russ Rose, Gabby Blossom, and Jonni Parker. Both Blossom and Parker tallied double-doubles for the Nittany Lions, who improved to 15-3 (8-1 Big Ten). Blossom had a career-high 58 assists, 13 digs, four kills, and a solo block, while Parker tied Serena Gray with a team-high 17 kills and added 15 digs, three aces, and an assist despite being visibly under the weather. www.dignittanyvolleyball.com/penn-state-womens-volleyball-beats-illinois-3-2-with-post-match-quotes/

E! This is great. I really appreciate the color you added...Parker visibly under the weather; Blossom's growing confidence.
One question: How pumped were they?
One final thought: I remember back a couple years ago when Hambly brought the Illini in and IIRC we blew an 8-point lead in set 3 and lost the match. While I admire IL, especially this year, I sort of felt we owed ourselves this win!!

All I can say is wow, Down 4 match points in the third, and lucky Illinois was out of challenges, Because I really think that ball was in the net. But hey we can use a break once in a while. I am sure we got the short end once or twice, I am not referring to this match, Just the law of probability.
