🔺 In The Backfield. We have 43 days until Penn State football is back on the field for its season opener at home against Nevada on August 30!

Brandon Short, who wore No. 43 for the Nittany Lions in the late 1990s, was a First Team All-American in 1999 and was one of three finalists for the 1999 Butkus Award. Short collected 51 tackles for loss during his Penn State career.

🦁 ONE BIG THING

🔺 Must Watch. Penn State women’s volleyball head coach Katie Schumacher-Cawley continues to inspire us each and every day!
