In this episode, we chat with Mattie Leon ’09 A&A, a soulful folk singer-songwriter from Hamilton, Ontario, whose journey from student-athlete to musician has taken him far from the golf course and back to Penn State in an unexpected way.
Mattie shares what it was like balancing life as a student-athlete at Penn State, accepting a golf scholarship, and making memories that would stay with him long after graduation.
We also talk about his transition from competitive golf to a career in music and the stories, places, and experiences from his time at Penn State that inspired his newest album, 607 West College Avenue.
Listen to part one of the album!
