Checking in with coach Jeff Cook on the state of Penn State men's soccer, plans moving forward

The men’s soccer team sheltered in place after spring break with many players thinking they would return to campus after just two or three weeks.

Now 10 months removed from their last game, the Nittany Lions will go at least another four months before returning to competition no sooner than Feb. 3 after the NCAA Division I council’s vote to approve moving fall sports to the spring.

Amid the pandemic, and with his team thrust into much different circumstances, second-year coach Jeff Cook stressed how it's important to keep the right perspective.

"To be honest, it's been a challenging time," Cook said.
