    Stankiewitch graduated from Blue Mountain High School in Pennsylvania in 2008. Stankiewitch was a 2 time all-state football player after his junior and senior seasons. He started at left guard in the Under Armour All-America Game and started at center in the Big 33 Football Classic.

    College career

    At Penn State, Stankiewitch redshirted in 2008 before starting two games at left guard in 2009. In 2010, Stankiewitch played in six games before missing the rest of the season due to illness. He was able to remain healthy throughout 2011 and 2012, finishing his career having made 25 starts at center and 2 starts at guard, second highest among the 2012 senior class. The talented and tough Stankiewitch helped anchor a unit that led the Big Ten in fewest sacks allowed in 2011 (14 in 13 games). The physical and driven Stankiewitch led the Penn State Nittany Lions in snaps played in 2011 & 2012 with 966 in 2011. During the course of the 2012 season, Stankiewitch was awarded 5 game balls and was a finalist for the Rimington Trophy. He was a 1st team all Big Ten center. He was instrumental in helping Coach Bill O'Brien's Nittany Lions lead the Big Ten in total offense (437.0 ypg) in conference games and ranking second in scoring offense (32.6 ppg) and second in pass offense (283.1 ypg) against Big Ten foes. Stankiewitch helped the Nittany Lions gain more than 500 yards of total offense three times in conference play, topped by 546 yards against Indiana, its highest total against a Big Ten foe since gaining 557 yards against Michigan State in 2008. Lastly, Stankiewitch played the most plays on the Penn State football team during Joe Paterno's last season as head football coach. [1]
