OL Alex Gellerstedt becomes Penn State’s 12th confirmed transfer of offseason

Penn State’s confirmed transfer count continues to rise.

Offensive lineman Alex Gellerstedt announced Sunday evening that he will finish his career at Virginia. The rising redshirt junior, who graduates with a degree in finance in May, will have two years of eligibility and can play immediately in Charlottesville.

He was previously reported two weeks ago to be in the transfer portal, so his move isn’t a surprise. It just became official Sunday.

“I would like to thank Coach (James) Franklin for giving me the opportunity to be a part of this great program. I want to thank Coach (Matt) Limegrover for helping me to develop as a player,” Gellerstedt wrote in a statement on Twitter.
