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.

'You don't want to get me in trouble, do you?" Obama Girl coyly whispers into the phone with a laugh and maybe a wink. If I didn't know any better, I'd think she's trying to flirt with me.
