College Football | 10 Penn St. players penalized for fight

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — Penn State disciplined 10 players for their roles in an off-campus fight in which at least two people were hurt.

University officials confirmed Monday that four players were temporary expelled from July 1 through the end of the summer semester in mid-August for their roles in the April 1 fight.

Players' names were not released because of federal confidentiality laws, Penn State spokesman Bill Mahon said.

But defense attorneys have identified the four as safety Anthony Scirrotto, defensive lineman Chris Baker, linebacker Jerome Hayes and cornerback Lydell Sargeant. The attorneys said last week that their clients had been expelled for Penn State's second summer session but would be able to participate when preseason practice begins in early August.

The discipline is separate from any punishment coach Joe Paterno might dole out.

Lawyers for the four players said their clients would be eligible to play when the regular season begins Sept. 1 against Florida International.

Note

• The Southeastern Conference will require its 12 schools to have some sort of attendance policy in place for the coming academic year — and ways to enforce the policy.
