New additions to Penn State football roster arrive on campus

Penn State football is welcoming nearly a dozen roster additions to campus ahead of the summer. This weekend, ten new Nittany Lions were added to the Penn State student directory before the university’s first summer session, which begins on Monday.

The additions include the Nittany Lions’ two major pickups from the spring transfer portal window, wide receiver Trebor Pena and linebacker Amare Campbell. Both arrive in Happy Valley looking to become plug-and-play pieces for what is being touted as a championship-caliber roster this fall. Their decision to join Penn State football is a significant reason why the program is garnering national praise as one of the winners of the offseason.
