Caleb Dorsey came to Penn State following a successful high school career for The Hill School in Pottstown, Pennsylvania as Penn State looked to find some good recruits from within the state. Dorsey checked off that box, and his family has basketball in the veins. Dorsey’s father, Stephen Dorsey, played college basketball for VMI and Towson.

As a true freshman in 2020-21, Dorsey appeared in just five games for the Nittany Lions, in which he recorded six points and two rebounds off the bench. But Dorsey brings potential to become more of an option off the bench under new head coach Micah Shrewsberry.

Dorsey appeared in two games in the first couple weeks of the college basketball season in 2021, and he has contributed 10 points and a rebound in his time off the bench.
