Out of the Cold to Host First Foul Shooting Fundraiser

This story originally appeared in The Centre County Gazette . STATE COLLEGE — Out of the Cold Centre County is holding a new event this weekend designed to help support the organization ahead of the winter months. The organization, which works to combat homelessness through its shelter and services in State College, is holding a foul-shooting competition called “Free Throws for Matt,” honoring a longtime volunteer of Out of the Cold. The event takes place on the new basketball court the organization built over the summer, serving as a ribbon-cutting for the new court. “It took me two months of just digging out and hauling in gravel and compacting and pouring the concrete and everything,” Out of the Cold volunteer Steve McDonald said. “There were a number of the residents who came out and were right by my side the whole time through this project, and what an awesome way to get to know some of their stories.” “It’ll just knock you off your socks when you hear some of their stories,” McDonald said. “I mean, they were so helpful in building this basketball court, and it gets used. The one gentleman, Alex, who is a resident there, says, ‘Oh

James Franklin gets another shot at the problem that haunted his Penn State tenure

James Franklin has enjoyed considerable success over his 16 seasons as a head coach. He has lost just 62 games during that span, was one of the most successful coaches in Penn State history, and has already doubled Virginia Tech's win total from a season ago in the first year of his rebuild in Blacksburg, Virginia. However, the Achilles' heel of Franklin's career has long been his team's performance against ranked opponents. That shortcoming played a significant role in his firing at Penn State this time last year , a decision Franklin said caught him in "shock." It came on the heels of a three-game losing streak that also included back-to-back defeats to unranked opponents, after Penn State entered the season as the No. 3 team in the preseason US LBM Coaches Poll .
