The road to NCAAs runs through Princeton.

Although they’ll be under the sun, there will be no break for Penn women’s tennis over the next week. The Quakers will be heading to Texas for four matches against tough opponents, such as UT-Arlington and UT-Austin, spanning the week of spring break.

This spring break, Penn men’s lacrosse will be jetting off to the beautiful, warm, tropical ... Pennsylvania. Facing off against Penn State, Lafayette and Villanova before classes start up again, the Red and Blue do indeed have a busy week ahead of them.

Over spring break Penn men’s basketball will be seeing many ends.

When Penn women’s lacrosse plays fast from the second the opening face off is won, its chances of losing are pretty remote.

But now, following a nationwide change in the structure of the Uplifting Athletes organization allowing teams to raise money for multiple rare diseases, Penn will be taking its fundraising efforts to the next level.

The Red and Blue will start off a slate of eight games over spring break when they travel to take on North Florida this Saturday.

Setting career-bests in nearly every statistical category imaginable, the 6-foot-4 junior has seized a central role for Penn, leading a team already surpassed last season’s win total in both conference play and the regular season as a whole.

Last week, at their annual meeting, the Ivy League’s eight head football coaches unanimously made an unprecedented decision to eliminate tackling from all regular season practices.

Like a late-night trip to Wawa, it was a satisfying, though not perfect, finish. It was one last hurrah for the Red and Blue in Maryland this weekend as most of the swim team went to the Eastern College Athletic Conference championships hosted at the U.S.

Penn track and field traveled to Cornell over the weekend to compete in the Ivy League Heptagonal Championships, with the men’s and women’s teams placing fourth and seventh, respectively.

The key to success is no days off. Penn fencing, competing for the third weekend in a row, hit the road for the United States Collegiate Squad Championships, held at rival Princeton's Jadwin Gym.

After coming agonizingly close to winning his first Howe Cup championship, Penn squash coach Jack Wyant couldn’t help but be pensive after the women's team lost, 5-4, to the defending champion Harvard. 

Penn basketball learned who they are last weekend at the Palestra. More importantly, they learned what they must do to get to where they want to be.

It’s Penn vs. Penn. Sunday afternoon, Penn men’s tennis faced off against No. 21 Penn State at the Hecht Tennis Center, dropping its last home match before heading into Ancient Eight play, 5-2.

With 21:16 to play in the second half, senior attacker Iris Williamson fired in a free position shot — her fourth goal of the game — to bring Penn’s deficit down to just one, 7-6. However, that would be the closest No. 13 Penn women’s lacrosse would get down the stretch against No. 10 Duke as the Blue Devils closed the game on a 5-0 run to cap off a 12-6 win.

The phrase, all time best, gets tossed around a lot in sports. However no other phrase better captures Penn’s Mens Swimming and Diving team performance at this year’s Ivy League Championship meet. Penn claimed a school-record six individual Ivy League titles en route to an program record of 1,213.5 points at the championships.
