"I wanted to commit to Penn State be- cause it just felt like home," he said at the time of his announcement. "Every time I'm there, the coaching sta, makes me feel like family and it really is just a special place." And that special place could hold some special moments for the Cli,ord family. Sean and Liam have long been playing with and against one another in informal sports around the house, whether it be football or something else. There's even an infamous anecdote involving a Little Tike basketball hoop. "I was so mad at him because he kept scoring on me," Liam said. "I turned my back and ran straight through the wall, so I put a huge hole in our wall." Despite the memories – and the home repair costs – that Liam and Sean have racked up playing sports, they've never actually been on the same team together. They will be this fall, and it's quite possi- ble that at some point, they'll combine as quarterback and receiver. "I feel so blessed – and he does too – just to have the opportunity to be in this position," Sean said. "We've thrown the ball together in the backyard and we've played the neighbors and we've done pick-up basketball and baseball. We've done all these things but we've never been on a true team together. We've always talked about how it would be so great to +nally play together on the same team, and for that to +nally be coming true this year, it makes me so excited." ■ CLIFFORD CONTINUED FROM PAGE 20
