Meet Penn State's 2021 freshmen class: BWI Photos
Penn State’s football program opened up its gates Wednesday, allowing the media to meet with last year’s freshman class for the first time. Like so many college football programs, freshman aren’t made available to the media their first year on campus. That meant that Wednesday was our first opportunity to chat with players like QB Christian Veilleux, cornerback Kalen King, offensive lineman Landon Tengwall and so many others.
Below is our photo gallery from Wednesday’s media availability.
