"We're really excited to be going back to the nation's capital and having one of our conference games this close to home for so many of our fans," said Tim Curley, Penn State Director of Athletics. "Our strong alumni base throughout the mid-Atlantic region -- really New York through the Carolinas -- makes FedEx Field a very attractive destination. We also have had great success recruiting top-level student-athletes for all of our sports in this region. We're looking forward to a great trip to Washington."

Nittany Lion Club members will have the opportunity to purchase tickets based on priority points. Different minimum point total levels have been established for each weekday from March 15-26. The cumulative point for the 2009 membership year will be used for determining the respective sale date.
