For the first time since 2013, Penn State has a men’s soccer Big Ten championship. The Nittany Lions clinched the Big Ten’s regular-season championship and the top seed in the upcoming Big Ten men’s soccer tournament with a victory over the Wisconsin Badgers on Sunday afternoon.
Senior Seth Kuhn scored two goals in the win for the Nittany Lions. After scoring a goal early in the match, Kuhn gave Penn State some late breathing room with his second goal of the game with just under 10 minutes to play in regulation time.

βThis was a well-earned championship that required us to show our resiliency, our determination, and our commitment to achieving our goals,” Penn State head coach Jeff Cook said in his postgame comments. “We look forward to the upcoming Big Ten Tournament at Jeffrey Field, but can enjoy this Big Ten championship for a few days now.β
