Good morning, State College.
🏘️ Community
On Aug. 1, the State College Downtown Rotary held its 11th annual Ice Cream Fest on the 200 and 300 blocks of South Allen Street with local vendors and family-friendly activities; proceeds from sample tickets supported community grants awarded in May.
🏈 Sports
Penn State men’s basketball has lagged behind Big Ten rivals due to limited funding and low ticket sales; AD Pat Kraft said the team can win with more investment (NIL era challenges remain), while critics doubt it can match wealthier programs.
17-year-old Kohyn Eshkawkogan committed to Penn State hockey after a breakout season with the Ottawa 67’s, where he ranked among top OHL defensemen by assists (earning him a spot on the OHL First All-Rookie Team).
He will join the Nittany Lions in 2027 ahead of the NHL Draft.
