The Quakers may no longer be looking to finish the Ivy campaign undefeated, but a league title is still very much within reach after a 76-56 win over Yale.
Penn (14-8, 8-1 Ivy) rebounded from a loss at Brown to jump on the Elis early, taking a 42-32 lead into the intermission. The Quakers kept up the pace to finish 20 points ahead Yale, a team that has notched only two Ivy wins this season.
Senior Jewel Clark led the way for the Red and Blue with 23 points on 8-for-15 shooting.
Penn retains sole possession of first place in the Ancient Eight, a game ahead of Dartmouth in the loss column.
Saturday's Ivy League scores: PENN 76, Yale 56 Brown 59, Princeton 39 Harvard 68, Cornell 55 Dartmouth 81, Columbia 68
