Players Go to Trial Facing Campus Fight Charges

Defensive tackle Chris Baker and backup linebacker Navorro Bowman will face trial next year on misdemeanor charges stemming from an on-campus fight. More serious charges were dismissed at a Wednesday hearing at Centre County, PA distric court.

20 year old Baker of Windsor, Connecticut and 19 year old Bowman of District Heights, Maryland are both still on the team, though it’s not known whether they’ll start against Texas A&M in December 29th’s Alamo Bowl. Both sat against Michigan State in the November 17 regular-season finale.
