Byron-Bergen product Alyssa D'Errico and her Penn St. volleyball squad just keep on winning.
The Nittany Lions have won 52 consecutive matches and are the defending national champions.
D'Errico is featured in a preview of the Ohio St. match, which was won by her squad. While a senior at Byron-Bergen, she received a phone call from coach Russ Rose after the last loss by Penn St. in the Big 10.
"It's kind of devastating to hear because you know the tradition to be the top team in Big Ten and play like you expect to win and play to win," D'Errico said of the phone conversation with Rose back in 2006. "It's kind of a mindset we have that we have to keep the tradition alive of not losing to [Big Ten] teams."
The Nittany Lions have a tough weekend coming up, playing games at No. 17 Illinois and No. 18 Purdue.
