Paternoville quiet so far

The scene at Paternoville is relatively quiet tonight as people take advantage of the warm weather by sitting outside chatting, doing homework and throwing around footballs and Frisbees.

While the scene may be quiet, people are getting excited for the rest of the week and the upcoming Penn State - Michigan game.

"I'm so freakin' pumped. I'm really excited. This game is going to be amazing, I'm calling it now," Kristina Borneby (sophomore-division of undergraduate studies) said.

Borneby was sitting in front of a giant puzzle of Wrigley Field as she did homework on her laptop.

"The whole compound works on it. For the weeklongs we get a 1,000 piece puzzle and it usually gets done by Saturday morning," she said.

For a lot of people in attendance this is their first Paternoville.

"I figured I had to experience Paternoville before I graduate," Zack Kosslow (junior-mechanical and nuclear engineering) said.

"Obviously, it's Michigan, it's the biggest game. It just seems the most hyped of the home games," he added.

For Brad Lieberman (junior-crime, law, and justice) the atmosphere of his first Paternoville is exciting.

"I look around, I kinda realize it's something cool to be a part of ... I want to be able to come back with kids and say 'yeah, I did that' ... I'm pumped. It was kinda chill but it's really cool. You hear Penn State cheers at 3 a.m. and it's great," he said.

The Roster

Travis Johnson Mug

Travis Johnson is a senior majoring in journalism and political science and a football reporter for the Collegian. He's previously covered the wrestling, baseball and women's golf teams. Travis loves to drive fast with the windows down and the rock 'n' roll blaring — even in the winter.

Josh Langenbacher Mug

Josh Langenbacher has written for the Collegian since his junior year and covered the women's track and field team. He's hoping he doesn't have to rescue any colleagues from telephone booths in the HUB — or anywhere else, for that matter.

Andrew Wible Mug

Andrew Wible is a junior majoring in journalism and a football reporter for the Daily Collegian. He has also covered the men's and women's basketball teams. A confused soul, he listens to rap, plays golf and hunts. And like any true Pennsylvanian, he treats the Monday after Thanksgiving as a national holiday.
