When the second half began, the Quakers came alive, defeating the Hawks, 66-51, to end a two-game losing streak.

This season, the two schools will tip off for the 231st and 232nd time in the historic matchup on dates that are inconvenient for the majority of Penn’s student body. But that is this year. It absolutely shouldn’t become a trend, especially if you want students to be engaged with the best of Penn traditions.

No matter what Penn basketball accomplishes -- or doesn't accomplish -- this year, every single narrative surrounding the program will tie into the degree of proverbial heat underneath the chair of a certain coach in his fifth full season.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — The past two seasons, Penn basketball has come up short against Wagner when it mattered most, failing to execute with the game on the line and then coming up short in overtime. But this year’s 64-61 loss to the Seahawks hurts so much more. The Quakers came out like gangbusters in this one, shooting 11-for-18 in the first half.

In the final few minutes, the Quakers came undone, unable to come away from the road tilt with their first win of the year as the Seahawks took the victory, 64-61. Penn committed 22 turnovers, including a key turnover in the final minute of the game.

From the opening tip, Penn basketball was in an Empire State of mind. The Quakers came roaring out of the gate, going on a 14-2 run to start the game against Wagner.

Penn basketball has shaken off that Thanksgiving slumber and is taking Staten Island, N.Y. for the day.
