1 min read
UNIVERSITY PARK – The early morning workouts in the dead of winter, the informal summer workouts and all the hard work and efforts in between are over. On Thursday, the Penn State football team returns to the practice field to resume preparations for the Nittany Lions’ 124th season.
Joe Paterno welcomes 36 returning letterwinners and 13 starters for his 45th season as head coach and 61st year on the Penn State coaching staff. Ten additional players with starting experience also return for the Hall of Fame coach, who joined the Nittany Lions’ staff in 1950.
The coaching staff will schedule practices around the last seven days of classes and final exams for Penn State’s second summer academic session. Final exams are Aug. 13.
