After a solid opening weekend at Vagelos Field, Penn field hockey will look to use two more nonconference games to shape into form ahead of Ivy play.

On the athletic field, however, there seems to be no need for a comparison or ranking:  The Ivy League schools play each other for Ivy titles, and the stats clearly say who is the best — after all, the Ivy League is primarily an athletic conference.

A few short days after a tough nonconference loss to Delaware, Penn volleyball will get a shot at No. 1.

Penn women’s tennis lost one of its all-time greatest coaches back in November 1996 when Cissie Leary died of scleroderma. This weekend, the team will once again uphold her memory.

By the end of the 2013 season, Penn sprint football thought it had found a gunslinger in quarterback Mike McCurdy. And as the 2014 campaign dawns, the time is now to develop the strong-armed sophomore into a pure passer.

On the first stop of their four-match road trip the Red and Blue (2-2) were beat down by Delaware (5-3) in three straight sets.

The countdown is coming to an end: Penn football is nearing a field near you? or your Florida relative. There is just a week and a half until the Red and Blue head to the Sunshine State to take on Jacksonville, a Pioneer League squad.

A year after both Penn and Princeton replaced their longtime athletic directors, another Ivy League school is about to begin the search for its next AD.

Though the Quakers were starting a few new players, the real fireworks started flying when the reserves started coming in in the early second half.

With a strong alumni game, a government shutdown and the mercy rule, Penn sprint football had an interesting 2013 to say the least.

In almost any sport, if you spend the fewest minutes on the field of anyone on the team, it makes you a scrub or a benchwarmer. In cross country, though, this same condition makes you something different entirely: a star.

Sometimes you just need to be in the right place at the right time, and with less than a minute remaining, that's exactly where Duke Lacroix was.

When Penn women's soccer faced Old Dominion over the weekend, they had one goal in mind: avoid deja vu.

On Friday, the Red and Blue overwhelmed Lehigh with six second half goals in a 9-1 triumph, before falling to Bucknell on Sunday in a defensive slugfest, 1-0.

Penn volleyball entered this weekend surrounded by a lot of questions. The team didn’t only answer these questions – they changed the entire course of the conversation.

In its opening match of the year, Penn took care of business in its season opener and first leg of the weekend’s Crowne Plaza Invitational, defeating Colgate in straight sets.

In their first game of the season, the Quakers took down cross-town rivals Drexel (2-1) in a 2-0 rout. Both of Penn’s goals came from first-year players as freshman midfielder Austin Kuhn and sophomore midfielder Levi Levenfiche scored their first career goals.
