Penn State Abington’s softball season ended Saturday after it suffered its second loss in the North Eastern Athletic Conference Championship Tournament. The team lost to Wilson College by a score of 4-1 in the weekend’s first elimination game at Penn State Berks.

Mike Colacci has been named the NEAC Men’s Basketball Student-Athlete of the Week. Colacci led Abington to two conference victories after averaging 25.5 points per game while shooting nearly 45 percent (13-of-29) from the field and hitting all 19 of his free throw attempts.

The Penn State Abington Nittany Lions soccer team could have easily overlooked last night’s match against Lancaster Bible College and come out flat. Facing a down-on-their-luck Chargers squad and looking forward to their game against the only other undefeated North Eastern Atlantic Conference (NEAC) team, Cazenovia, all the pieces were in place for a possible upset.

After 20 minutes of probing and deft passing in the offensive third, it was Penn State Abington (7-0, 5-0 …
