Field Hockey's heir apparent feeling the heat

Field hockey goalie Alanna Butera had only seen action in two games over two years, but after honorable mention All-Ivy goalie Liz Schlossberg graduated, the starting job was essentially bequeathed to her.

Pirates fire six goals on hapless M. Soccer

Even though the scoreboard read 2-0 for Seton Hall after the first half last night, Penn men's soccer coach Rudy Fuller "was looking forward to the second half." Unfortunately for him, he got more than he bargained for. The Pirates (2-0-0) netted four more goals in the latter 45 minutes to blow the Quakers (0-1-0) away 6-2 in their season opener in South Orange, N.


Facing a cupcake, W. Soccer leaves only a few seconds of doubt

There was a moment, perhaps no more than two seconds long, when Penn's fate seemed to literally hang in the balance during its 4-1 win over Robert Morris on Sunday at Rhodes Field. In the 55th minute, the Quakers were clinging to a 1-0 lead that by all accounts should have been larger.
