Junior Michael Blodgett will always remember the 2008 men's golf Ivy Championship at Galloway National Golf Course in New Jersey. Blodgett dominated on the renowned course, winning Penn's first-ever Ivy League individual championship by three strokes. He also tied Brown's Larry Haertel for a new course record of 67.

COLLEGE PARK, Md. - On Saturday in College Park, Md., the men's lacrosse team did everything right. Players won faceoffs, defended physically and got off plenty of shots. The one thing they could not do was score. Against the No. 7 Terrapins, Penn's offensive futility continued, resulting in a scoreless streak of over 51 minutes and another lopsided loss, this time by a 9-4 margin.

Thanks to a disagreement with his coach, Joseph Lok's tennis career ended one match early. Lok skipped the match and the team's Senior Day ceremony in protest of coach Nik DeVore's decision to bench him. The California native says that because of an ankle injury, he struggles to cover the court in singles, while he is fit to play doubles.

The Penn women's tennis team suffered its biggest loss of the season to Yale this weekend - without even playing the Bulldogs. After winning both matches against Cornell and Columbia to finish the season with a 6-1 Ivy record, the Quakers had done everything they could to defend their Ancient Eight title.

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." The Quakers have to finish on the greens at the Atlantic City Golf Club in New Jersey in order to beat the six other Ivy contenders and win their first league title.

Whenever Penn suits up against Maryland, it seems like a lost cause. Over the past four years, the Terps have outscored the Quakers 60-25. Still, Penn remains optimistic of its chances to upset the nation's No. 7 team when it travels to College Park, Md., for a showdown tomorrow at 1 p.

Well, the hard part is over now. The No. 6 Penn women's lacrosse team upset its chief Ivy rival in No. 2 Princeton to clinch at least a share of its second-consecutive Ivy title. All that's left for the Quakers is beating middling Brown tomorrow at Franklin Field to win the regular-season championship outright.

Three out of 51. That's Penn's record against rival Princeton since 1982, the year that the teams began playing one another. If there was ever a time to begin making up such a monstrous deficit, this weekend's back-to-back doubleheader against the Tigers would be it.

All spring long, the men's golf team has worked to prepare for this final weekend. The Quakers have had an up and down season, but they have kept their eyes set on the tournament that truly matters: the Ivy League Championships. The two-day event will take place this weekend at the par-72, 6,900-yard Galloway National Golf Club in Absecon, N.

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.

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. It was a tough way to go out," he said. And while the Quakers (12-9, 3-2 Ivy) may be effectively out of the Ivy League championship race this year, those losses are plenty of motivation when they finish the season at home against the Lions on Sunday.

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. Instead, it's Tyler Bernardini, the streaky but smooth scoring guard who ended his freshman campaign as the highest-scoring rookie in Penn history.

Anyone who has ever played baseball will tell you that playing on a warm, sunny day is one of the best feelings there is. Heck, it's enough to make even the four-game Ivy weekends palatable. But for the woebegone Penn baseball team - who dropped an 8-2 contest to lowly La Salle on Wednesday after three losses to Cornell over the weekend - the playable conditions may be, first and foremost, a source of frustration.

"Come on now, you're better than that!" bellowed a voice from the corner of the Penn dugout in the bottom of the fifth inning. The play itself was inconsequential - merely an ugly hack by sophomore Matt Toffaletti on an off-speed pitch. But the sentiment was significant.

Sometimes Diana Ark just wants a breather. Yes, Wharton keeps its freshmen busy with a steady diet of group meetings and projects. But, unlike her classmates, Ark has to juggle two additional commitments: She's found time to play on both the varsity softball and fencing teams.

Whether it be the Atlantic 10, Big 5, Sonny Hill League or Portsmouth Invitational, Mark Tyndale and Pat Calathes have always been in the same league. This upcoming year, they're hoping to make it to just one more together. Tyndale and Calathes, seniors at Temple and Saint Joeseph's, respectively, are starting their bids to play on the ultimate level in October.

PRINCETON, N.J. - For the women's lacrosse team, déj… vu has never been sweeter. As they did last year, the Quakers beat Princeton by four goals to clinch at least a share of the Ivy League title and the league's automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. No.
