SPORTS BRIEF: Thursday, October 30, 1997

Field Hockey can't find net at No. 6 Penn State The No. 6 ranked Nittany Lions offense claimed a 1-0 lead only three minutes into the first period and never looked back. Penn St. goalies Julie Sposito and Jamie Smith did not have to deal with a single shot on goal all evening. The shutout dropped the Quakers' record to 10-5. In addition, the defeat marked the second straight year the Red and Blue have been shut out by the Nittany Lions. Penn plays again Saturday at Yale. -- Miles Cohen
