With every season comes a set of new faces eager to translate their athletic achievements in high school to the collegiate level.

It wasn’t the ending anyone had hoped for. Three games into the Ivy League season last year, everything was looking up for Penn men’s soccer.

Penn men’s soccer is entering unique territory in the program’s history.  Two years removed from an Ivy League title, gone now are graduated mainstays like Duke Lacroix and Kamar Saint-Louis.

Hurricane Erika may have skirted Florida last week, but a new storm is heading south this weekend.

In preseason practice, Penn football wide receiver Christian Stapleton broke his finger, sending him to the trainers.

It is by no means uncommon for a weekend doubleheader to feature clear high- and low-water marks. Only this weekend for Penn men’s soccer, the high point found them threatening to summit the pinnacle of the collegiate landscape, and the low point featured a team that was almost unrecognizable from earlier.

Professional basketball player. Ivy League graduate. Philanthropist. Sock lover. Not exactly the bio one would expect to find for the typical Penn graduate.

Earlier this month, Penn squash assistant coach Gilly Lane coached the US men’s team to a bronze medal at the 2015 Pan American Games in Toronto. Lane, who graduated from the College in 2007 after earning All-America, All-Ivy and team MVP honors all four years at Penn, served as a player-coach for the men’s team last year in the 2014 Pan American Sports Festival, where the men qualified for this year’s event by placing third. The head of the US national teams, Paul Assaiante, wanting to maintain continuity between the 2014 and 2015 events, offered Lane the men’s head coach position if he did not make the team as a player. “I jumped at the chance when they put it out there to me,” Lane said.

With dual-threat quarterback Alek Torgersen back for more in 2015, along with a healthy and reloaded supporting cast, Penn football’s offense could once again be among the Ivy League’s best. After finishing sixth in the Ancient Eight in points per game in 2014, Torgersen and the Penn offense will enter their first season under the direction of Offensive Coordinator John Reagan, who spent the last four years in the same role at Kansas (2014) and Rice (2011-2013). Reagan, a former three-year starter on the offensive line at Syracuse who has coached the college game since 1994, is seeking a quick turnaround for an offense that was young last season but enters 2015 with experience and poise. Reagan and Torgersen did not wait long to get to work, spending time together throughout the spring and part of the summer.

The Boston Celtics announced this week that former Penn men’s basketball coach Jerome Allen will join the team in an assistant coaching role.
