Penn State football commits Journey Brown, Zack Kuntz finish with gold, records at PIAA track championships

SHIPPENSBURG

A pair of future Penn State football players had golden days Saturday at the PIAA Track and Field Championships.

Meadville’s Journey Brown, who will be stepping on the Penn State campus in a few weeks, stamped his name in the Pennsylvania history books in a big way.

The incoming running back burned down the Seth Grove Stadium track in the 100-meter in 10.43 seconds. The time broke the state record set in 1985 by future U.S. Olympian Leroy Burrell when he was at Penn Wood.

Brown, who defended his Class 3A title in the event, hopes to run track for the Nittany Lions in addition to his offensive duties in football.
