Since 1997, 14 Pennsylvania College of Technology archers have been named all-Americans 30 times. Of those 14, five have earned all-American status three or more times, and, this weekend at the United States Intercollegiate Archery Championships at Sparta, Ill., Wildcat Michelle Wright will seek to become the sixth.

Ten Pennsylvania College of Technology spring and winter athletes have earned Penn State University Athletic Conference All-Conference honors, it has been announced. Named All-Conference from the championship women's softball team were freshmen Lisa Miller (Cogan Station), Samantha Mills (Harrisburg) and Michelle McNett (Canton).

A team of Penn College staff and faculty defeated its student counterpart, 15-12, in a softball game on the college's Athletic Field Monday night. The students jumped to a quick 2-0 lead at the end of the first inning on a two-run homer by Aaron Moyer, according to a game summary from Lisa J. Worth, athletic assistant.

A season of firsts for the Pennsylvania College of Technology women's softball team came to an incredible finish Saturday. Despite the fact that 13 of his 17 players were freshmen, the most he's had on any of his six teams, coach Roger Harris thought his team was going to be good this season, but he had no idea how good.

After going 19-5 overall and 18-2 in Penn State University Athletic Conference games this spring, the Pennsylvania College of Technology women's softball team is set for playoff action at University Park. The second-seeded Wildcats, who captured the North Division title, open play in the double-elimination PSUAC Final Four at 11 a.m.

The off-campus team wanted to set the tone early and did exactly that at Sunday's Powder Puff Football game against faculty/staff, according to a summary from Jeremy R. Bottorf, intramural/Fitness Center assistant: Liz Mast intercepted the first pass of the game, and the off-campus team drove downfield only to have Lisa Worth pick off an Amber Geckle pass at the 1-yard line.

Congratulations to the staff/faculty intramural volleyball team, which won 3-1 in the best-of-five series against a team of students Wednesday night. The staff/faculty team won the first two games (26-24 and 25-23), then in what some thought might be the turning point of the night the student team won the third game in impressive fashion (25-8).

The defending champion Pennsylvania College of Technology baseball team advanced as the top seed to the Penn State University Athletic Conference Final Four with a 15-0 win over Penn State Scranton on Tuesday, putting it into this weekend's double-elimination tournament at Medlar Field in State College .

The importance of each game just became more critical for Pennsylvania College of Technology's baseball team. It was announced by the Penn State University Athletic Conference Athletic Directors Council on Tuesday that, due to weather-related postponements and cancellations throughout the month, the rest of the regular season is being suspended and playoffs will commence this weekend.
