In late November, the Red and Blue hit the road to take part in the Penn State Garret Open. But now, they have a long break before their next official event on Jan. 12.

A number of freshmen have joined the Red and Blue, and the transition to college fencing has proven to be a major change. 

Li, a junior from Palo Alto, Calif., began his fencing journey at the age of eight like many: through his love for Captain Jack Sparrow.

Coach Andy Ma's 10 seasons as the head coach of both the men’s and women’s programs have been exceptional.

This weekend, the Quakers stayed in state when they traveled to University Park, Pa. to compete in the PSU Garrett Open.

 With each competing against six schools, the women managed an overall record of 2-4, while the men split their results at 3-3.

Ahead of a jam-packed weekend, here’s what to watch for from Penn cross country, men’s soccer and men's and women's fencing.

As the leaves begin to fall off the trees, the fall sports begin to end. Here are major storylines to look out for as winter sports get ready to kick off. 

Here's a look at six impressive athletes who can make a big impact this upcoming weekend in their respective events. 

Spring break was an exciting time for Penn Athletics. With impressive wins from many teams, the Quakers had a lot of success.

The Red and Blue began the day strong with a dominant 23-4 win over Johns Hopkins. Their success continued with a 16-11 win versus St. Johns and a subsequent 17-10 victory against Princeton.

At this year’s Ivy League Championships at Yale, men’s fencing finished in fifth with a 1-4 record, only ahead of Brown. The women finished 3-3, tied for third. 

As Penn men's and women's basketball continue Ivy League play against Brown and Yale, several other Penn Athletics teams will look to find success in competitions across the country. 

The Red and Blue travelled to Evanston, Ill. on Saturday to compete in the Northwestern Duals.

Going to practice once a week, Vaiani never imagined that fencing would become a much larger part of her life. 

The Red and Blue ultimately saw competition on Saturday and Sunday from eight different teams, including Haverford, Duke, Brown, Sacred Heart, NYU, and Yale.

The day began with an early heartbreak for the Red and Blue against Duke, ranked No. 6 on the men’s side and unranked on the women’s side.
