If Penn State’s three other seniors handle nostalgic moments with the same resolve as Dan Vallimont, the Nittany Lions could be primed for a better postseason showing than last year.

When the conference tournament begins at 11 a.m. today at Michigan’s Crisler Arena, the Nittany Lions are relying on seniors with conflicting postseason histories.

Vallimont and Cyler Sanderson are looking to return to the NCAA podium, a place they reached in 2008, but missed last season.

This could be his first — and possibly last — collegiate postseason.
