Wafle appeared in nine games for Penn State in 2025, mostly in a special teams capacity. He recorded a tackle against Villanova, Iowa, Rutgers, and Clemson.

Wafle transferred to the Nittany Lions from Michigan in January as Penn State’s fifth transfer commit of the cycle. The Princeton, New Jersey, native was ranked as the No. 75 edge rusher in the transfer portal at the time of his commitment, per 247Sports.
