Penn State hosted its annual Lift for Life event, supporting rare disease research. The team participated in several competitions, including tire flipping, bench press, and cone drills. The event was also open to fans, with children getting to interact with players on the field. Additionally, it was also the first time that the media had had a chance to see newcomers to the program since the start of the summer session.
