Senior Casey Kent picked up his fourth win of the year, one of few bright spots for the Quakers on Saturday. 

You can’t achieve greatness without a bit of humility, and Penn wrestling just picked up its fair share of the latter this weekend. In their opening dual meet of the season, the undermanned Quakers were outmatched by a strong Rider team, losing seven of ten individual matches en route to a thorough 32-10 defeat at the hands of the Broncs.


The Latest

With 8:42 remaining in the second half, junior guard Darnell Foreman’s jumper put Penn within two points of George Mason at 57-55. Between that moment and senior guard Matt Howard’s free throw with 3:07 left, the Quakers scored zero points on nine missed shots and a turnover.

It was poetic, almost, the transfer of dominance. After senior guard Matt Howard lit things up in the first half, scoring 12 of Penn’s first 15 points, freshman forward AJ Brodeur took over in the second period, tallying 16 of his 22 after intermission.

Before this season, junior forward Matt MacDonald hadn't played a second in a Penn uniform – but that wasn't enough to stop his teammates and coaches from voting him as a team captain in 2016-17.

Penn basketball juniors Matt MacDonald and Caleb Wood are wearing the Red and Blue for the first time this year — but that’s about all they have in common. Despite their age, the two juniors are in their first year on Penn's men's basketball team after they both arrived via transferring from other schools.








Despite a team-leading 19 points from senior forward Matt Howard, Penn men's basketball failed to complete the comeback against Temple, falling to the Owls 70-62.

PHILADELPHIA — Penn basketball fought hard after falling behind big early, but fell short in a 70-62 loss against a superior Temple team on Saturday at the Liacouras Center. After falling behind 21-4 early in the game, the Red and Blue (2-4) rallied and had it within two points in the game's final minute, but were unable to complete the comeback against the Owls (6-2).
