Ohio State beats Penn State, 20-13, in a thrilling top-five matchup at Beaver Stadium.
UPDATE 3:30 p.m. Karageorge's sister, Sophia, told the Columbus Dispatch her brother was last seen at his E. 7th Avenue apartment at 2 a.m. Wednesday before leaving to take a walk.
“He had some extenuating circumstances that night that lead us to believe he was upset,” she told the paper.
Sophia Karageorge said her brother has suffered from a history of concussions.
“We’re very concerned that he’s not himself and that he maybe doesn’t know what’s going on,” she told the Dispatch. “Every time he’s had a concussion, he’s been evaluated and listened to his trainers. He’s been properly taken care of by OSU the entire time he’s been an athlete for them. But ... his repercussions from them have been long-term or delayed later after the factor.”
Ohio State walk-on defensive lineman Kosta Karageorge has gone missing, according to his parents early Thursday morning.
