the best pitchers ever to perform
for Penn State.
On the high school gridiron he
was a quarterback, but the second
string quarterback. The first
string signal - caller was Don
Stickler, of Penn State baseball
fame.
Bruce didn't see much action

After trying to beat Stickler out

he had found his sport. After
playing for the Penn State fresh
