Penn State football freshmen, early enrollees dance at Thon 2019 pep rally

Rising redshirt senior Garrett Taylor hoped on Saturday afternoon that the football team’s 2019 Thon dance would live up to his freshman year’s showing, a pep rally-winning performance. Instead, the men’s gymnastics team took home the title for the third straight time.

But the young Nittany Lions still brought life to an already amped Bryce Jordan Center on Saturday night.

As is tradition, freshmen represented the Penn State football team, coordinating a dance that featured 2018 contributors PJ Mustipher and Jahan Dotson and a handful of early enrollees. The team danced to a mix of Chris Brown’s “I Can Transform Ya,” Joe Budden’s “Pump It Up” and NSYNC’s “Bye Bye Bye”.
