Political Quotes

“On Monday, the members of the Penn State women's volleyball and the men's and women's fencing national championship teams were honored by the White House. They were two of the more than 30 National Collegiate Athletic Association national championship teams invited to the White House celebration by the President. Last season, the Penn State women's volleyball team won their unprecedented third straight NCAA National Championship. They have won a record 109 matches in a row. The Nittany Lions were a perfect 38-0 for the second consecutive season, and this was their seventh Big Ten title in a row. The Penn State fencers won their fifth national title in the last decade on March 28 and their second consecutive NCAA championship. These teams carried the mantle of Penn State from the court and the strip to the White House, and I could not be prouder of my alma mater and its sensational teams. I commend the President for his efforts to recognize the various championship teams and individual student athletes for their contributions to their communities and to their schools.”
