Penning Makes Panther Draft History

The NFL Draft began Thursday and a couple of in-State schools had reason to be excited about offensive linemen being taken. At pick 19 in the first round UNI’s Trevor Penning was selected by the New Orleans Saints. The Clear Lake native who prepped at Mason City Newman is the first Panther to ever go in the first round. Iowa center Tyler Linderbaum was taken 25th by the Baltimore Ravens.
