Here's a look at how Penn women's basketball is doing compared to its Big 5 rivals so far this season.

With Penn basketball back in action after a year of inactivity, we preview the Big 5 and Penn basketball's chances to take home another Big 5 title. Four out of the five teams begin Big 5 play on Wednesday, Dec. 1.  

Despite a stand-out performance from Jordan Dingle, Penn couldn't manage to pull out the victory against No. 6 Villanova.

Penn women’s basketball’s match-up against La Salle was a messy, messy contest.

Fall sports have ended, but nonetheless, these Quakers' outstanding seasons are ones to remember, ranging from veteran, senior captains to inexperienced freshmen.

Now that fall sports have come to a close, here's a look at how seven Quaker teams did this year. 

For Penn women's basketball senior guard Mia Lakstigala, the COVID-19 pandemic heavily affected what was supposed to be a collegiate career spent competing for the Ivy League title. Instead, the last time she played a full season of basketball was in the 2018-19 season — when she was just a freshman.

Now, the team is back in the City of Brotherly Love for the foreseeable future, and it’s gearing up for the next chunk of its season: Big 5 play. On Wednesday night, Donahue’s squad will host the Jay Wright’s Villanova Wildcats, who will enter the contest ranked No. 6 in the AP Poll.

In a contest without the Red and Blue's leading scorer — sophomore guard Jordan Dingle — Penn dropped its ninth game of the year to No. 13 Arkansas, 76-60.

For a pair of Wharton undergraduate students, the fantasy of working for an NFL team became a reality last summer.

As the fall season comes to a close — the first since 2019 — we take a look at five interesting statistics from fall sports teams that were exceptionally noteworthy.

Penn women's basketball played close games against UCSD and Memphis, beating the former while falling to the latter in overtime in Los Angeles. 

The loss drops the Quakers to 3-5 on the season. Penn will look to get back in the win column this Sunday at nationally ranked Arkansas.

With almost all of Penn’s usual starting lineup serving suspensions, save for sophomore forward Jordan Obi, the absence of Villanova star Maddy Siegrist due to injury still didn’t feel like enough for Penn to come out with a win against its strongest opponent thus far. And yet the team almost did, losing 66-63.

Penn men and women's squash had another four-match weekend after the team's season debuts last week. 

Penn women’s basketball dropped its first game of the season with a 66-63 loss against the Villanova Wildcats at the Palestra. Additionally, this loss marks their first in Big 5 play. 

This downward trend begs the question, “What should Penn football do from here?” I’m here to stipulate what went wrong this season, and how Penn football might address these problems in the offseason and next season.
