Incoming Penn State recruit dominates Big 33 Classic all-star game for Pennsylvania
20 of Penn State’s 25 incoming freshmen in James Franklin’s 2024 recruiting class enrolled early for the winter semester and were in Happy Valley for Spring Football. Corey Smith, Dejuan Lane, Donovan Harbour, Kenneth Woseley, and Tyseer Denmark however, graduated from high school in the spring and on Sunday night Denmark dominated his final pre-collegiate football showcase.
In the Big 33 Football Classic, which pits the top players from Pennsylvania against the best high school talent from Maryland, the three-star wide receiver from Imhotep Charter caught four passes for 95 yards and three touchdowns in the 31-7 PA victory and was named the game’s MVP. It was Pennsylvania’s fifth straight win over Maryland.
On depth throws down the sideline, the 5-foot-11 future Nittany Lion dominated Maryland’s defensive backs at the catch point, even shedding a defender after coming down with a jump ball on a 52-yard catch-and-run touchdown. Even with the constant stream of elite wide receiver talent from the high school ranks into college football, no Penn State freshman receiver caught a pass in 2023, only redshirt freshman Kaden Saunders contributed with six grabs for 56 yards and a touchdown.
Denmark wasn’t the only future Nittany Lion on Pennsylvania’s roster at Cumberland Valley’s Chapman Field. Woseley, a three-star cornerback and Denmark’s high school teammate from Imhotep Charter made two tackles.
Woseley isn’t likely to make a big impact in his first year on campus, but with snaps up for grabs at wide receiver, Denmark could find his way into new offensive coordinator Andy Kotelnicki’s short and long-term plans. Ohio State transfer Julian Fleming and redshirt junior Harrison Wallace III are almost guaranteed to nab the top two spots on the depth chart but after last year’s leading receiver KeAndre Lambert-Smith left for Auburn in the spring portal window, there are snaps open in the slot for the No. 3 wideout.
While Denmark was a candidate for snaps even before his Big 33 standout performance, redshirt junior Liam Clifford has the inside track for the most snaps aligned in the slot and junior Omari Evans could be in the mix as a deep threat. Three-stars Josiah Brown and Peter Gonzalez are the other two incoming freshman receivers.
Success in a high school all-star game isn’t necessarily indicative of college football impact or an NFL career, but the Big 33 Classic is a bit different. At least one alumnus of the game has appeared in all 58 Super Bowls, including former Nittany Lions Kevin Givens in Super Bowl LVIII and Miles Sanders in Super Bowl LVII. The 2022 MVP was current Penn State linebacker Keon Wylie, and other notable Nittany Lions to appear in the game include Kerry Collins, LaVar Arrington.

Model Dayle Haddon dies after suspected carbon monoxide leak in Pennsylvania home
Model, actress and humanitarian Dayle Haddon died Friday after what police believe was a carbon monoxide leak at a Bucks County, Pennsylvania, home.
Police from Solebury Township in Bucks County, which is in the Philadelphia metropolitan area, began investigating a property at 6:30 a.m. Friday, after a resident called 911 to report a 76-year-old man was lying down, passed out on the first floor of a detached “in-law” suite.
The man was taken to Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick, New Jersey, according to the police report. His condition was not immediately available. A second victim, a 76-year-old woman, was found dead in the detached suite’s second-floor bedroom.
Eliot Gross, the deputy coroner of Bucks County, confirmed to USA TODAY that the female victim was Haddon. Toxicology reports to determine the cause of death are expected on Saturday, according to Gross.
Volunteer firefighters on the scene detected a “high level of carbon monoxide” in the property, according to the police report. Two medics were transferred to the hospital for carbon monoxide exposure, and one was treated on the scene.
CBS News reported that the home is owned by Haddon’s daughter, former journalist Ryan Haddon, and Ryan’s husband, the actor Marc Blucas.
The Canadian-born Haddon was one of the top models in the 1970s, posing on the cover of the 1973 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue. Haddon starred in the 1973 Disney movie “The World’s Greatest Athlete” and in Hollywood films such as 1979’s football satire “North Dallas Forty” along with Nick Nolte.
Haddon worked as L’Oréal spokesperson and was the author of “Ageless Beauty: A Woman’s Guide to Lifelong Beauty and Well-Being.”
Haddon traveled the world as an ambassador for the humanitarian aid organization UNICEF. She is also the founder of WomenOne, a charity focused on creating educational opportunities for girls and women, according to her website.

BioNTech settles with U.S. agency, University of Pennsylvania over Covid vaccine royalties

BioNTech has entered into two separate settlement agreements with the U.S. National Institutes of Health and the University of Pennsylvania over the payment of royalties related to its COVID-19 vaccine, the company said in filings.
The German company, which partners with U.S. drugmaker Pfizer for its COVID-19 vaccine, said on Friday it would pay $791.5 million to the U.S. agency to resolve a default notice.
Separately, the company will pay $467 million to the University of Pennsylvania (Penn), which has agreed to dismiss a lawsuit brought against the vaccine maker accusing it of underpaying royalties.
BioNTech said partner Pfizer will reimburse it for up to $170 million of the royalties payable to Penn and $364.5 million of the royalties paid to the National Institutes of Health (NIH)for 2020-2023 vaccine sales.
NIH and Penn did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The U.S. government is owed royalty payments under the terms of the license BioNTech has taken for certain patents owned by the NIH, among other entities.
Penn’s lawsuit had said BioNTech owes the school a greater share of its worldwide vaccine sales for using “foundational” messenger RNA (mRNA) inventions developed by Penn professors and Nobel Prize winners Katalin Kariko and Drew Weissman.
The company also amended its license agreements with both NIH and Penn, agreeing to pay a low single-digit percentage of its vaccine net sales to both the entities.
Both settlements include a framework for a license to use NIH and Penn’s patents in combination products.
The agreements do not constitute an admission of liability in either case, the company said.
