Sue Paterno denied entry to PSU pool


A person close to former Penn State coach Joe Paterno’s family has told The Associated Press his wife was turned away from a campus pool.

Sue Paterno is an avid swimmer known for taking early-morning laps in the pool. The person who requested anonymity because of the sensitivity of the situation said Wednesday night the rejection left the family saddened.

University spokesman Bill Mahon told The Patriot-News of Harrisburg, which first reported the pool rejection, he was unaware of any directive. The school had said last week that Paterno still held tenure.
