Twenty years ago, the Penn field hockey team won the Ivy League and defeated Penn State in an overtime thriller in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. On senior day this Sunday at Franklin Field, the Quakers will remember that squad with a pregame ceremony before hosting Brown at 1 p.

With the Phillies one out away from their first World Series title in 28 years - but one Tampa Bay Rays' hit away from yet another setback - the standing-room-only crowd at Cavanaugh's turned to alcohol to quell its anxiety. "Chug, chug, chug," screamed a pair of students near the door, as others prepared for one final "Let's go Phillies!" chant.

Please, for your own sake, don't pigeonhole Bobby Sewall. The Brown wide receiver is certainly good at his job - his eight receptions and 116.2 receiving yards per game make him the most prolific in the Ivy League. But if you ignore his other abilities, you're liable to get burned.

By HARRISON GARFINKLE Contributing Writer dpsports@dailypennsylvanian.com Men's fencing coach David Micahnik isn't losing any sleep over the May graduation of four-time first-team All-American Ron Berkowsky. Instead, he's comforted by the the return of two former All-Americans, juniors Jon Berkowsky - Ron's brother - and Andrew Bielen, who will provide the team with a boost of energy and some continuity.

Since Zeke Jones stepped down as the head coach of the Penn wrestling team on Sept. 27 in order to take the same position with USA Wrestling, the Penn reins have been up for grabs. But yesterday, Rob Eiter - an assistant under Jones for two years and the interim coach after his departure - was named the permanent head coach.

Everyone - except the guy who has to wear it - thinks the plastic visor is a cool accessory to standard-issue football garb. For senior defensive back Tyson Maugle, it's a pain, just like the broken nose he sustained three weeks ago, which forces him to wear the add-on to his helmet.

Penn students might know David Pottruck for the fitness center that bears his name, but they probably don't know much else about the member of the College Class of 1970. Pottruck was a two-sport athlete for the Quakers in football and wrestling. He was the CEO and president of discount brokerage Charles Schwab, a trustee of the University and has also been involved in a startup airline company and a sports retail network.

Wei-Hwa Huang has been haunted by his lack of nerves before. When the pressure is on, the 33-year-old Mountain View, Calif., native just hasn't been able to perform. No, Huang isn't an athlete, trial lawyer or surgeon. And unless there's something he's not telling us, he's never defused a bomb.

The wait is finally over. Since Zeke Jones stepped down as the head coach of the Penn wrestling team on Sept. 27 in order to take the same position with USA Wrestling, the Penn reins have been up for grabs. But yesterday, Rob Eiter - an assistant under Jones for two years and the interim coach after his departure - was named the permanent head coach.

Oh, those second-half woes. They've plagued the men's soccer team as of late. Consequently, coach Rudy Fuller's squad - which went undefeated through the first 10 games of the season - is just 2-2 over its last four matches. (The losses came against Lehigh and Columbia while the wins were over Dartmouth and Yale.

NEW HAVEN, Conn., Oct. 25 - For the first 16 minutes of Saturday's 9-7 win over Yale, the Quakers' offense was stagnant. Senior quarterback Robert Irvin showed an ability to roll right and hit tight end Josh Koontz on the run, but not much else, so coach Al Bagnoli decided to call on backup Kyle Olson early in the second quarter.

The losing streak, it seemed, would never end. But this weekend, after Columbia's 21-13 win over Dartmouth, the stench of the 13-game skid was washed away in orange Gatorade. The bath that Lions coach Norries Wilson received courtesy of safety Andy Shalbrack must have felt good - it signaled the end of the second-longest active skid in the Football Championship Subdivision.

Matthew Krentz's experiences growing up in St. Louis and playing basketball at junior college led him to craft a fictional account of his experiences. He wrote, directed and starred in Streetballers - the Philadelphia Daily News lauded his "chutzpah" - but he still couldn't get Hollywood to take note of the relatively low-budget Irish Urban drama.

The average College of General Studies class at Penn attracts a mixed bag of students. The College kid who's too lazy to take the 10 a.m. version. The stay-at-home mom who's finally getting her degree. And the senior citizen who has nothing better to do on a Tuesday evening.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. - It wasn't until the postgame press conference after Saturday's 9-7 win at Yale that Al Bagnoli finally showed the effects of being the longest-tenured coach in Quakers history. "I think I'm gonna go on the bus and fall asleep," he said, chuckling.

Penn men's soccer senior Omid Shokoufandeh had been here before. The Quakers' strong first-half play had disappeared, and with it, their one-goal lead. They seemed destined for a tie, or worse, another Ivy loss. That's when, with just under two minutes left on a rainy, windy Saturday night in New Haven, Conn.

Sprint Football can't upend Navy The sprint football team scored a touchdown as time expired in the first half to take a 7-6 lead, but from there it was all downhill against Navy. The defending champion Midshipmen for 20 third-quarter points en route to a 26-7 victory in Annapolis, Md.
