Wolverine starting center, Molk, to play Saturday

10/19/2009

ANN ARBOR — David Molk, University of Michigan's center whom coach Rich Rodriguez has called one of the team's best players, will practice this week and is expected to play Saturday when the Wolverines host No. 13 Penn State.

Molk broke a bone in his foot against Eastern Michigan and missed UM's past four games. His return would fall on the short end of the initial four-to-six diagnosis.

In other news, Rodriguez said that Saturday's opportunity to evaluate several back-ups against Delaware State will not result in any changes to the start lineup.
