Quoting Erica Walsh: "Jenna caught our eye in our summer camp a few years ago and as we continued to track her, we became more and more impressed. A tenacious and fearless player, Jenna has the work ethic and all the tools to be successful in a number of positions here."
Quoting Kalwa: "I chose Penn State because I was inspired to look here by my great grandfather, who was to play football here. Before I even visited the school I had a feeling it was where I belonged, and once I did visit, I felt I couldn't go anywhere else."
