We’re happy to have been given access to the Penn State Nittany Lions halftime session from last Friday’s match at Purdue.

As part of a full day’s access to the #3 team in the country getting ready for a Big Ten road game (watch this space and our blog for many more videos), we got to sit in on the team’s halftime session in a meeting room last Friday in the Boilmakers’ soccer stadium.

Click the video above to see what head coach Erica Walsh and her staff (Ann Cook, Michael Coll and Tim Wassell) had to say to her charges during the halftime break. The team was leading Purdue 2-0 at the break, and that ended up being the final result.
