Dress appropriately: Penn State lacrosse calling for Whiteout conditions at the Linc this Saturday
The NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Final Four is coming to Philadelphia this weekend and a local university is calling for fans to white out Lincoln Financial Field. Penn State Men’s Lacrosse is making their first Final Four appearance in program history this weekend after a 21-14 win over Loyola Maryland Sunday.

Penn State men’s lacrosse will make its first-ever appearance in the Final Four of the NCAA tournament on Saturday. The game may be slated for the Saturday before Memorial Day, but the team still has one simple request for Nittany Lion fans who plan on attending the game at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia: Wear white.

The two teams with the most boys lacrosse state championships, the Cherry Creek Bruins (6) and the Kent Denver Sundevils (5) took the field in a rainy game that turned into a blizzard midway through. Neither team took the upper hand staying even through the first half and into the third quarter before the weather turned from rain to snow.

Ugg boots, rubber gloves and shorts are the only protection from freezing temperatures as cold as minus 200 degrees. Then comes the sensory deprivation of floating pitch black in 1,000 pounds of Epsom salt while meditation music plays. And that’s just at work. At home is a custom-made mattress designed to get just the right amount of sleep.
