UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.; Dec. 7, 2009 - The Nittany Lion basketball team looks to enjoy a return to the friendly confines of the Bryce Jordan Center on Tuesday when it takes on Maryland-Baltimore County in a 6:30 p.m. tip live on the Big Ten Network.

With the tipoff for Saturday's game against Temple imminent, Talor Battle, Penn State's all-Big Ten Conference guard, looked up at the small cluster of Nittany Lion fans in the upper reaches of the Liacouras Center and acknowledged them for escaping the central Pennsylvania snow to support his team.

Temple coach Fran Dunphy is starting to see that Ryan Brooks can be more than just his leading scorer.

Talor Battle dominated the second half and the Nittany Lion basketball team posted a Big Ten record third-straight victory in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge Monday as Penn State downed Virginia, 69-66, in Charlottesville, Va.

His jumper, by his own admission, was a line drive during his first two seasons at Penn State, when Jeff Brooks shot 25 percent and 26 percent, respectively, from 3-point range.

Ed DeChellis equates it to jumping off a high dive. When the five newcomers on the Nittany Lion basketball team hear their names called and step onto the court for the first time tonight, nerves and jitters are bound to accompany them.

It was a routine play in practice last Wednesday. Bill Edwards moved in to collect a rebound when Andrew Jones and Steve Kirkpatrick got tangled up under the net.
