Campbell had at least four tackles in the first nine games of the year. He also added a sack, four interceptions and seven breakups.

• The Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference announced an updated spectator policy for the upcoming swimming and indoor track and field championships.
In an effort to permit at least minimal fans, each participant of the 2022 PSAC ewimming and indoor track and field championships will be able to designate no more than two visitors for each day. Fans will also be required to wear a mask at all times at both championships.
Due to the recent increased risk cases of COVID-19, and the nature of the venues in which each event is held, the decision comes following a vote of the league’s athletic administrators.
Individuals will be turned away if they are not on the spectator pass list and/or if a team does not provide a completed spectator pass list to PSAC administration prior to the start of each day of the championships.
There will be a livestream of both championships available for free on the PSAC Sports Digital Network.
