For the second time this month, Penn State men's volleyball had a title to celebrate.

The Nittany Lions claimed the EIVA Tournament Championship last weekend by besting George Mason in the title game, having already claimed the conference's regular season championship two weeks prior.

That was the highlight, but there's plenty to recap over the last week in Penn State sports, so let's get into it.

Penn State's 32nd EIVA Tournament championship came after the Nittany Lions handled No. 13 George Mason in the final. The Nittany Lions claimed the first two sets by the identical score of 25-20., but the Patriots fought back by winning a marathon third set 32-30 to keep their hopes alive. The Nittany Lions earned another decisive 25-20 victory in Set 4 to seal the win. Penn State bested Saint Francis 3-0 on Thursday to advance to the title game. Penn State will play Belmont Abbey College in a play-in match in the NCAA Tournament on Monday May 3 in Columbus.

The Nittany Lions followed up their overtime win over Michigan with an equally tight, 10-9 victory on the road against Ohio State last week. The Nittany Lions tied the game up at 10 with 1:08 left via Dylan Foulds, who then scored the winner with 23 seconds on the clock.

The Nittany Lions will welcome Michigan State to Happy Valley for a three-game set this weekend.
