Talking Penn State Football History: Tom Donchez

Tom Donchez unfortunately passed away on August 28, 2024.  He not only was one of Penn State’s best fullbacks in their stored history, but was also an ambassador for Penn State University.  We are airing this episode in honor of him:

We are privileged this week to interview Tom Donchez, who was one of Penn State's best fullbacks in their history. Tom also was PSU's leading rusher in 1974 and starred in the 1975 Cotton Bowl against Baylor. Tom sheds insight into that great 1973 undefeated Penn State team where he shared time with Bob Nagle at fullback blocking for John Cappelletti. Sit back and enjoy this look back to Tom Donchez's career and the 1975 Cotton Bowl.
