The Penn State women continue to assemble some valuable defensive building blocks.

Brittany Basinger, the FC Virginia back, has verbally committed to the Nittany Lions for the 2013 season when she will join fellow defender Jordan Meier. 
 
The Big Ten dominators are getting an ECNL standout who is athletic and tough. Our No. 97 ranked player in her class, Basinger has consistently competed against the top players from around the country and is a player who can immediately contribute.
