JoePa moves to press box at halftime for Penn St.

Joe Paterno moved to the press box for the second half of Penn State's game Saturday against Temple.

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. —

Joe Paterno moved to the press box for the second half of Penn State's game Saturday against Temple.

The 81-year-old Paterno has complained of a sore right leg. He walked slowly along the sidelines in the first half as the Nittany Lions built a 31-0 lead.

A team spokesman said Paterno moved upstairs alongside his assistants at halftime.

JoePa complained of soreness in the leg after kicking a ball in practice several weeks ago. He was on the sidelines the entire game for the first three contests this season, but monitored practices this week from a golf cart.

Paterno also sat in the press box the final two games of the 2006 season, including the Outback Bowl, as he recovered from a left knee injury.
