Curt Warner was always one to praise the blockers who helped him become Penn State's all-time career rushing leader and he did it again last Saturday night when he was enshrined into the College Football Hall of Fame. "I'm happy that a couple of my blockers, Bill Contz and Mark Battaglia, are here tonight," Warner told the crowd at the Enshrinement Festival Dinner in South Bend's Century Center.
