The Big Ten Network recently announced that Penn State's home conference dual with Michigan State will be broadcast to a national audience live on Feb. 15. The dual had initially been changed to a 5 p.m. start, but scheduling changes with the BTN have allowed the match to be switched back to its original 7 p.m. start time.
Penn State's Jan. 4 home dual with Eastern rival Cornell will be televised live on WPSU-TV, Penn State's PBS affiliate. Action in Rec Hall begins at 7 p.m. as No. 3 Penn State hosts No. 17 Cornell in what should be a hotly contested dual. The event will also serve as a celebration of Penn State's first ever dual match, a meeting with Cornell 100 years ago. WPSU-TV serves a large statewide audience from Clarion to Williamsport and includes parts of southern New York and northern Maryland.
In addition, WHVL-TV, State College's new local television station, will follow Penn State to nearby Lock Haven University to televise Penn State's Feb. 23 road dual at Lock Haven live as well. In order to accommodate the live telecast, the dual has been moved back to an 8 p.m. start (instead of the original 7:30 p.m. start). WHVL-TV is serving a growing audience in the Centre Region and can be seen on seven regional cable systems. Check www.whvl.com for a complete list of local affiliates and channels.
The Nittany Lions, 4-0 overall, are currently ranked No. 3 in the country and will next meet No. 17 Cornell on Jan. 4 in Rec Hall. The dual will start at 7 p.m. All Penn State duals can be heard locally on WBLF AM (970) and WKVA (920 AM). Tickets for all regular season duals are on sale now at the athletic department ticket office in the Bryce Jordan Center. Single-dual tickets are $5 for adults and seniors and $3 for students 18 and under. Penn State students with a proper student ID are admitted free! Fans can call 814-863-1000 or 800-833-5533 to order single-dual tickets.
