When it rains, it pours. In the final action of the season for both of Penn’s golf teams, a bottom half finish was unavoidable for both squads. Faced with the task of defending their 2015 Ivy crown, the men’s team found themselves in a similar situation to last year’s tournament.

On Friday and Saturday, Penn track and field competed at Princeton in the Larry Ellis Invitational.

Mother nature has not shone brightly on Penn track and field this season. The Quakers have been forced to embrace the elements at the vast majority of their meets. This weekend should be no different.

Penn golf will hit the road this weekend and compete for the Ivy League championship, with the men's team looking to defend its title in Greenwich, Connecticut and the women looking to win their first league title since 2010 in Jackson, New Jersey. The women's team comes in with momentum, having finished top-five in each of its first three tournaments this spring following a strong fall season.

After clinching a berth in the Ivy tournament, you might think that Penn's men’s lacrosse team has done its job.

As the spring season starts to wind down, there are a number of Penn teams in the hunt for an Ivy title and beyond.

After dropping three of four to Princeton this past weekend, Penn baseball needed a win. They got it.

Penn Athletics has a variety of varsity sports teams, but it also hosts a wealth of club sports. These club teams can even be surprisingly successful — the men’s club basketball team, for instance, had a record-breaking year. But for the best club athletes, just how easy is it — and how often does it occur — to move up to the varsity level? The latter question is easier to answer.

And that’s two. Late last night in good ol’ Baltimore, the Quakers were able to build on their Ivy win Saturday to defeat UMBC in a non-conference game 8-7. The Red and Blue got the first point on the board with an unassisted goal from midfield Tyler Dunn just 34 seconds into the game. But the Retrievers didn’t let Penn stay up for long.

While they may have been non-entities last year, sophomore right-handed pitcher Billy Lescher and junior southpaw Gabe Kleiman have become indispensable members of Penn baseball’s pitching staff this season.

All of Penn’s student body knows that “finals season” is approaching. But for a select subset of the school, the phrase is a bit of a double entendre.

If you asked most Penn students if they really enjoyed their toughest Pottruck workouts, the answer would probably be no. Hard runs or the dreaded leg days are often the things that — despite being sometimes necessary — they dread the most. Calvary Rogers, freshman track phenom, on the other hand, relishes the opportunity to have his coaches push him every day in practice.

Last Monday, Princeton announced that it was discontinuing its long-beleaguered sprint football team, effective immediately.

Less than a day after hundreds of students flocked to Franklin Field to experience the musical stylings of Chance the Rapper, Penn men’s lacrosse put on an equally compelling performance of its own. On Saturday, a crowd of 718 — which included a number of former players who returned to celebrate the team’s Alumni Day — took in an exciting, back-and-forth game.

When it comes to Ivy League baseball’s Lou Gehrig division, there’s a new sheriff in town.

Penn women's rowing tested its limits this weekend, and they did not come away empty handed. While in action at the Clemson Invitational in South Carolina, the Quakers secured the Class of '89 Plaque for only the third time in program history.

The slide continues. After opening up Ivy play with two key wins over Yale and Brown at the beginning of the month, Penn men's tennis has failed to find similar success in four conference matches.
