The most interesting thing about this weekend’s Penn-Columbia football game is going to be the memories.

In sports, it is good to have a short memory. So far this season, Penn women’s soccer has shown that's exactly what they have, downing non-conference opponent Delaware State on Tuesday night, 4-0, following a heartbreaking 1-0 loss to Columbia over the weekend.

Penn’s sprint football team wrapped up its fourth consecutive win to start the season this past weekend to head into an off week still undefeated.

Penn football looks good right now. After the Quakers started off 0-2, the Dartmouth game was over before halftime, and Central Connecticut State proved to be the non-conference softie we suspected they might be. There are just six Ivy games left in the season, and it’s hard to imagine feeling as though the Quakers could realistically be in a much better spot than they current are.

If Penn football had two faces, they would be senior quarterback Alek Torgersen and junior wide receiver Justin Watson.

This was a rough one. Fresh off an impressive 5-0 drubbing of Cornell a week ago, Penn men’s soccer was dealt a crushing double-overtime loss in their second Ivy contest Saturday, falling 2-1 to Columbia.

The University of Pennsylvania men’s soccer team started off Ivy League play with a bang yesterday, defeating rival Cornell on the road in a back-and-forth overtime affair. Right from the opening whistle, the intensity and importance of the match was on display with fouls and cards being assessed evenly to both sides.

On a day when everything else in the Ivy League went right for Penn, one moment was enough to break the spirits of women’s soccer. 

Inside the Quakers’ locker room, there was only one focus: just win. Behind three total touchdowns from quarterback Alek Torgersen and a breakout performance from defensive lineman Louis Vecchio, the Red and Blue did just that, taking control early and holding on for a 28-16 win.

The Quakers knew they’d have to go after Navy for a full 60 minutes if they were going to come out with a win.

Former Penn football tight end Ryan O’Malley was added to the Oakland Raiders 53-man roster Wednesday, making him the second Penn alum on an active NFL roster. The move — first reported by Penn Athletics — clears the way for O’Malley to make his NFL debut this Sunday at home vs.

Until two weeks ago, Penn men’s soccer had drawn the most matches in the country. Almost entirely unbeaten, the Quakers were also winless.

It may just be Central Connecticut State, but the Quakers, who are reeling after taking down Dartmouth for the first time since 2013, are approaching Saturday’s contest like it’s any other game. “In our progression they’re game number four,” coach Ray Priore said.

The moment the whistle blew, it was off to the races for Penn women’s soccer. The Quakers managed to put up three goals in the first seven minutes while paying a visit to American on Tuesday in their 4-0 win over the Eagles.

You won’t find many sports where the league’s most important game happens halfway through the regular season, but for the Collegiate Sprint Football League, Friday night’s Franklin Field matchup pitting Penn against Navy will be just that.

Penn men’s soccer head coach Rudy Fuller has had dozens of assistant coaches in his tenure at the school since his arrival 19 years ago. And out of that cast, in a true testament to Fuller’s leadership and coaching prowess, four of them have become head coaches — either at other D-I programs, or professionally.
