UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - With a new robust look fitting of an athletic program with 29 elite-level varsity sports, GoPSUsports.com re-launches with a new look, focusing on an enhanced user experience. The new design of GoPSUsports.com, the official source of news on Penn State's athletic department, will bring fans a top-notch platform that displays all the news, schedules, video and more on the Nittany Lion teams 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

"We're never satisfied when it comes to how we present Penn State's Athletic Department on the web," said Associate Athletic Director for Marketing and Communications Greg Myford. "Partnering with College Sports Television Online (CBS College Sports Network), we're constantly trying to look for ways to keep our users connected with Penn State by offering our fans with compelling videos and photo galleries as well as exclusive live audio and feature recordings. Of course, GoPSUsports.com will continue to remain the best source of Nittany Lion sports news, features and recaps just as it has always been, however we hope the new design packages this vast content in an even more user-friendly way."

GoPSUsports.com is every Penn State fan's first stop to stay up-to-date. The Official Home of Penn State Athletics, the site features rotating photos, video on every sport page as well as the homepage, exclusive audio, and current news and recaps. A newly-improved Fan Center gives Penn Staters a way to express their school spirit as well as free wallpaper downloads to show their pride in the Nittany Lions. The Nittany Lion Desktop Application is also free for download in this section and helps keep Penn State fans in touch through Athletic Department news sent directly to their desktop.

Fans will find GoPSUsports.com their one-stop shop for photos for their home or office in the Official Photo Store, Penn State video classics and collectables in the Penn State DVD Store , and media guides and game programs in the Penn State Publications Store. Exclusive items are up for auction everyday on GoPSUsports.com and the Official Online Store remains every Penn Staters' best way to get Nittany Lion apparel from the Official White-Out T-Shirt to authentic Nike jerseys to mugs and other items that make great gifts for any occasion.

"GoPSUsports.com is the one place you can get not only answers to questions like `What time does the game start?' and `How do I join the Nittany Lion Club?' but also to `What should I wear to the game this week?' or `Where can I watch highlights from last night's match?' Simply put, this site should provide Penn State fans with everything they want and need to stay in touch with their favorite teams," said Myford.
