Over a decade and a half later, Doktor is readying for his senior season wearing the Red and Blue and leading the offense for Penn men’s lacrosse. The memories of 15 years ago remain salient in the attacker’s mind as he readies to turn a new chapter in his career in the sport.

Penn men’s lacrosse had an up-and-down season in 2015, failing to defend the Ivy League Tournament Championship it had earned the year prior.

Penn isn’t going to win the Ivy title. It was fairly apparent from before the season even started, and halfway through the Ivy slate it’s even more apparent.

With the calendar barreling towards the College Squash Association Nationals, Penn Squash’s two squads find themselves heading in opposite directions.

Until this weekend, Penn men’s tennis had yet to play a tournament in the 2016 season at full strength. Its veteran star, senior Vim De Alwis, was recovering from knee surgery after getting injured late in the 2015 season, and rookie sensation Dmitry Shatalin was stuck sorting through NCAA clearance bureaucracy.

Rest is for the weak. That has been Penn wrestling’s mantra as of late. And, after a weekend consisting of several closely contested and grueling dual matches, the Quakers have certainly earned a respite.

This past Friday at Staten Island was one for the books for Penn track and field. Returning for the second time this month to the Ocean Breeze Complex in New York, the Red and Blue broke records and brought the heat to the highly competitive Fastrack National Invite.

ITHACA, N.Y. — Steve Donahue went back to Newman Arena on Saturday and walked away with another win — this time for a different team. The first-year Penn basketball coach returned to his old stomping grounds at Cornell as the Quakers handed the Big Red a 92-84 defeat just a day after falling at Columbia, 63-53.

In the first-year Penn coach’s return to Cornell, where he coached for a decade, Penn defeated Cornell, 92-84, to give Donahue his first win against his former program.

NEW YORK – Midway through the second half on Friday, despite having gone down by 11 after halftime, Penn basketball managed to whittle its deficit against Columbia down to a single point. That’s as close as the Quakers would get.

After a busy season filled with plenty of ups and even a few downs, the Penn squash teams will end their regular season schedules with red and blue opponents of their own. On Friday, both second-ranked squads will have their final home match of the season against Columbia at the Ringe Squash Courts.

Things seem to be falling into place this weekend for Penn men’s tennis.

For Penn track and field, the importance of Friday’s Fastrack National Invite is crucial.

There’s nothing quite like catching up with old friends. This weekend, Penn basketball coach Steve Donahue will face off against Cornell — a team he coached for a decade — part of a back-to-back road set also featuring a trip to Columbia, which will be the Quakers’ third Ivy weekend of the season.

This summer, however, three members of the men’s lacrosse team will add white to their color scheme and play for a different and perhaps more meaningful purpose.

As the winter sports start to head down the final stretch, we discussed which Penn Athletics team has the most critical games this upcoming weekend.
