We are 29 days away from Penn State football.
We have spent a few of these days getting to know some of the current players on the roster. Today, we will talk a little bit more about two players that currently wear the number 29.
The first player is a redshirt sophomore Sebastian Costantini, a safety out of Collegeville, Pennsylvania. Costantini was recruited as a kicker. In high school, he was a punter, and he did very well, averaging 41 yards per punt and had a 70 percent touchback as a senior.
Costantini comes into this season as a cornerback. He played his freshman season as a kicker, but will be making the position switch this season.
The second player is a wide receiver out of Erie, Pennsylvania named Henry Fessler. He enters this season as a redshirt junior. He didn’t see any action last season, but has made a name for himself on the developmental squad, earning player of the week multiple times in his first few years with Penn State.
As a recruit, Fessler was not a highly touted player out of high school. Penn State was his biggest offer and he committed there in the class of 2018.
Both Costantini and Fessler are underclassman with lots of potential. Costantini has a unique story of a kicker who converted to a cornerback. Fessler is a player that has shown plenty of flashes on the developmental squad and has garnered attention from coaches.
They have 29 days to continue their legacies as a Penn State Nittany Lion.
