It must feel nice to play close to home.
After a slate of tournaments that took the men's golf team up to New York and down to Delaware this fall, the Quakers will get their only chance to play in the Philadelphia area.
Penn will tee up at the Philadelphia Cricket Club for the annual Big Five Classic on Saturday and Sunday.
The best finish the men have pulled out this year was a sixth place finish at the Duncan Memorial Invitational.
Junior Michael Blodgett has contributed strong performances for the Quakers this year, finishing in the top 20 in each of the two tournaments Penn has attended.
Last year at the Big Five Classic, the Quakers tied for second.
Blodgett tied for fourth place and Dean Merrill, who qualified for the U.S. Amateurs this summer, also chipped in a top ten performance at the competition a year ago.
