Before the women's tennis team took on Marshall and William & Mary this weekend, senior co-captain Julia Koulbitskaya predicted that her team would have to be "well-prepared at the bottom of the lineup." Her words proved prophetic. On Saturday, the Quakers lost the top two singles slots, but victories further down the depth chart propelled them an upset over No.

Before too long, we won't know our way around campus at all. That's because Penn has a proud tradition of renaming anything and everything in response to large sums of money. In the latest demonstration of that tradition, Logan Hall will be re-christened (or de-christened, perhaps) Claudia Cohen Hall to honor the late ex-wife of Ronald Perelman (perhaps you've heard of his Quadrangle).

Harvard goalie Joe Pike entered Saturday's game leading the Ivy League with a 4.29 goals against average. By the time he left Franklin Field, that number had ballooned to nearly six.

A new course-planning tool seems to have made it easier to plan for advanced registration, which begins today for fall classes.

Two of Penn's student government groups need to sit down and discuss their differences - perhaps over a glass of wine. This year, the Undergraduate Assembly cut funding for the Student Committee on Undergraduate Education's preceptorial program, in hopes that the organization would then limit funding for its popular - but expensive - wine-tasting preceptorial.

Tracy McIntosh, the former Penn neurosurgery professor who was resentenced last month for a 2002 sexual assault, is now challenging his new sentence.
