Penn State's Barkley Impresses in Winter Workout

STATE COLLEGE---Penn State running back Saquon Barkley set freshman records this past season for the Nittany Lions.

He didn't disappoint in Wednesday's final winter workout. Barkley tied a team record by squatting 500 lbs., seven times. He also bench-pressed 390 lbs. and ran a 4.38 second forty-yard dash.

"This kid is for real," Penn State Director Of Performance Enhancement Dwight Galt said after the workout.

The Nittany Lions open spring practice Friday March 18.
