Some Pub for the Nits

We've reached the halfway point of the season and some Nittany Lions have garnered some recognition from collegefootballnews.com

Three Penn Staters were named to CFN's Midseason All-American first team.

C - A.Q. Shipley
KR - Derrick Williams
DE - Aaron Maybin

Also, CFN columnist Pete Fiutak named Maybin his national defensive player of the year, while CFN's Richard Cirminello named Penn State his biggest surprise thus far.

Finally, Fiutak added Daryll Clark to his Heisman list, but said Clark is, "on the radar, but the world is looking for more."

Obviously, there's still five regular season games to go, but this adds a little perspective to just how well the Lions are playing compared to the national scene.

The Roster

Matt Fortuna is a sophomore majoring in journalism and a football reporter for the Collegian. He has previously covered the men's tennis, soccer and basketball teams. A traditionalist, he would like nothing more than to see Joe Paterno throw it back to his Brooklyn days and install the single-wing offense this season.

Nate Mink is a sophomore majoring in journalism and a football reporter for the Daily Collegian and a 5-foot-10 sesquipedalian from Allentown who has tried to grow facial hair for 20 years. Sadly, he has been unsuccessful thus far. He is anxious to get a new driver's license in September and hopes the bartenders at Zanzibar in Ann Arbor believe he's 21.

Wayne Staats is a junior majoring in journalism and history and is a football reporter for the Collegian. He previously covered the baseball and women's basketball teams. He never made it far playing competitive football, unless Nerf football in grade school counts.
