The Centre Daily Times reported that a former Penn State wrestler was sentenced to one year in jail for sexually assaulting a sleeping woman.
Andrew Long, 23, pleaded guilty to aggravated indecent assault. He apologized in court to the victim, a mother who had been sleeping after moving her son into an apartment in State College in August 2011.
"My prayer is that you find healing and forgiveness for what I inflicted on your family," he read aloud in the courtroom.
Long, who was a key member of Penn State's wrestling team, has been in a treatment program in Iowa, according to his attorney. He left the wrestling team after he was arrested.
State College police said Long got in bed with the sleeping woman, took off her underwear and touched her. Long's attorney, Tony DeBoef, said his client was drunk and does not remember the incident.
