📈 STOCK UP

🔺 Runnin’ Around. A trio of Nittany Lions advanced in the 800m at the U.S. Olympic Trials on Thursday — Isaiah Harris led the way with a time of 1:46.14, with Brannon Kidder right behind at 1:46.48 and Darius Smallwood just behind that at 1:46.68!

🔺 Fit Right In. Only 64 more days until Penn State football is back!

We’re throwing it back all the way to last year for this one — Hunter Nourzad last wore No. 64 for the Nittany Lions, earning second-team All-Big Ten honors by both the coaches and media in 2023 after starting all 13 games at center.

Nourzad, who transferred to Penn State from Cornell, was selected in the fifth round of the 2024 NFL Draft by the Kansas City Chiefs.
