Long drives turn heads, but it's putting that wins titles. If the Quakers hope to somehow do that this weekend at the Ivy women's golf championship, they'll have to improve on what coach Francis Vaughn calls "an Achilles heel."

Corey Fisher, a vital cog in Villanova's Sweet Sixteen run? Lavoy Allen, the frontcourt monster who helped muscle Temple into the NCAAs? Nope - neither are the Big 5 Rookie of the Year.

Men's tennis co-captain Brandon O'Gara still has painful memories of last year's heartbreaking losses to Columbia that kept Penn out of the NCAA tournament. "It was awful.

There is too much at stake for the women's tennis team to get sentimental now. Today's clash against Cornell will be the seniors' last home match. Going into the final weekend of play, the second-place Quakers (9-7, 4-1 Ivy) still have a mathematical shot at repeating as Ivy League champs.

Among college students, Sen. Hillary Clinton could use the "Colbert bump" right about now. According to a recent Daily Pennsylvanian/CBS News poll, Clinton (D-N.Y.) lags far behind Sen.

Among Penn students, 73 percent of registered Democrats favor Obama for the nomination, compared to just 26 percent for Clinton - who appeared in Colbert's show, filmed on campus, last night in an appeal to young voters before Tuesday's primary.
