[NU Sports] PENN STATE TO START VARSITY HOCKEY; BIG TEN TO FOLLOW?

[SjT (Stephen J. Truog)]

I believe PSU is doing mens and womens hockey.

I know it's just a pipe dream at NU, but with six (Minny, Wisky, MSU, UM, OSU and PSU), we'll have enough for a league.

I don't suppose Nebraska will be joining in on the ice, eh? :)

GO CATS!!!
