State College DB Keaton Ellis receives Penn State football scholarship offer

One of State College’s own Little Lions could eventually become a Penn State Nittany Lion.

Rising junior DB Keaton Ellis camped at Penn State on Friday and impressed the staff to earn a scholarship offer as a 2019 football prospect. Ellis announced the offer on Twitter late Friday night.

According to ESPN’s recruiting database, Ellis is the first State College football player to receive a scholarship offer since Alex Kenney, a three-time all-state football athlete who graduated from high school in 2010.

“Incredibly blessed to have received an offer from” Penn State football, Ellis wrote.

Ellis also boasts offers from Buffalo and Syracuse.
