They got just what they needed. In a pair of duals at Brown and Harvard on Feb. 6, Penn wrestling swept the competition. After taking down the Bears, 25-9, in Providence, Ri. the Quakersmade the trek to Cambridge, Ma., and dealt the Crimson a 26-9 beatdown.









It was early March when Jake Silpe, in the midst of his second semester as a senior in high school, received some very unexpected news. Jerome Allen, the University of Pennsylvania men’s basketball head coach, had just been fired, with several games still left to play on the Quakers’ schedule. Allen had recruited Silpe to Penn, and once he signed his letter of intent, Silpe was fully under the assumption Allen would be his coach for his college basketball career.


Penn women's basketball has gotten a boost from Monmouth transfer Kasey Chambers this season, who sat out the 2014-15 season before being named a captain prior to her first game suiting up for the Red and Blue.

Better late than never. For Penn Athletics, the timeless idiom has never been more true, as several transfer students have found their respective ways to 33rd Street and quickly made an impact on the Quakers’ athletic program.







Freshman Justin Yoo, who finished 12-3 on epee, and the rest of the men's fencing team were unstoppable on Saturday, going 5-0 as a team.

The final tune-up before the battle for the Ivy League saw Penn pitted against some of the best the rest of the nation has to offer. The Red and Blue trekked to South Bend, Ind., on Saturday to compete in the Northwestern Duals. On the men's side, the No. 3 Quakers dominated, going 5-0.


Sophomore Hayes Murphy was one of three members of Penn men's squash to sweep his opponent as part of the Quaker's decisive 8-1 win over Princeton on Saturday.

You win some and you lose some, but sometimes you just win them all. Last Saturday, for only the second time in school history, both the men and women’s sides for Penn squash topped Princeton in the same season. The wins against Princeton are just the most recent pieces of evidence for why this season is one of — if not the — the Quakers’ best. Historically, Penn-Princeton matchups have typically not gone in favor of the Red and Blue. Corey Henry contributed reporting.
