Sagel Finds New Home After Transferring to Penn State

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.- Although this is Robby Sagel's first year wearing Blue and White, he's fitting in perfectly with the Penn State men's soccer team.

This year's squad is especially unique since Sagel is one-of-seven transfers in the 2015 season. Before his move to Happy Valley he played at Temple University for his freshman and sophomore year. With Penn State being a much larger school than Temple, Sagel has no regrets on his move.

"I really wanted to take the next step and challenge myself, overall Penn State is a much bigger environment than Temple,"said Sagel. "It's a bigger program, bigger fan base, and with higher expectations, it's a bigger challenge,"

Not only did he want to challenge himself in soccer but in his academics as well, Sagel mentions although deciding to transfer was difficult, he enjoys the challenge.
