surprise. He
handed them each a custom-made

himself with his name and bas

Right then, Linda teared up.
She knew her son had finally
accomplished his goal.
Colella transferred to Penn

sons for the Division 111 Lions, but
had bigger dreams: D-I ball.
So when he finally got an oppor
tunity, Colella worked hard
“harder than anybody else,” Linda
insisted and made it happen.
After open-tryouts last month,
Colella was invited as a walk-on
for the Nittany Lions this season.
He is now on their 15-man roster.
Colella’s parents attended the
team’s home exhibition against
East Stroudsburg on Sunday. And
though Nick didn’t get to play
he sat at the end of the bench
dressed in a shirt and tie Linda
didn’t care.
“We were just proud to see him
on the bench, on the floor, part of
the team,” she said. “I got teary
eyed again just seeing him there.”
Colella said it was always his
goal to transfer to University Park
after two years, as long as he kept
his grades up. He did, and made

Behrend coach Dave Niland
said he preferred not to talk about
Colella’s departure. The coach
hasn’t spoken with his former
player since he made the team at
Penn State, and said simply: “This
is a four-year program. If someone
leaves, it’s like it’s a transfer. If this
was one of Nick’s goals then I’m
happy for him.”
it was Colella’s goal in fact, it
was his No. 1 priority. So this sum
mer, he went through an extensive
training program to prepare him
self for the Nittany Lions’ tryout.
Colella had a summer job with
the New Castle Housing Authority.
Right when he got off work, he
would go straight to the gym, then
to summer league games.
“I got involved with every sum
mer league that I could,” Colella
said. “Played with a lot of guys, in
a lot of games. Then basically

became a gym rat. It was basket
ball 24/7.”
That work ethic extended to the
fall, when he enrolled in classes at
Penn State.
His freshman year, Colella
came up to the University Park
campus a couple times to visit
friends. Randomly, he met some of
the Penn State women’s basket
ball players and became friends.
“Then when I got here they told
me they have some guys who play
against them in practice,” Colella
said. “And right away, I was like,
‘Sign me up. I’m there.’ ”
So Colella became a women’s
practice player. And when he was
n’t with the Lady Lions, he was
doing one thing.
“Every time I called him this
fall, he was working out, working
out, working out,” his mother said.
“All the time.”
It paid off. Colella said he felt

He said he thought he did what he
needed to do, playing “good, fun
damental basketball.”
A couple days later, his phone
rang. Not surprisingly, Colella was
in the weight room when the
coaches called. They asked him to
come up for a meeting.
“I was at work that morning
when Nick texted me and said the
coaches v anted a meeting with
him,” Li! Ja recalled. “And I was
like, ‘Oh my god, this has to be a
good thing. It’s happening. All of
his hard work has finally paid off.’
