Having been on the brink of elimination from its tenth regular season conference championship in 11 years for more than a month, there’s been only one focus for Penn women’s lacrosse — staying alive. And behind a tremendously balanced offensive effort featuring a combined nine goals from senior Emily Rogers-Healion and freshman Gabby Rosenzweig, the Red and Blue did just that yet again.

The Latest

The women’s squad (10-8, 3-2 Ivy) rebounded from a 0-2 start in Ivy play and roared into impressive form, with a weekend sweep of Brown and Yale leading them to three straight wins. The men (14-9, 1-3) responded to a 3-0 deficit against Brown to complete an impressive 4-3 comeback. With this weekend producing some of the Red and Blue’s best tennis, it seems right to highlight some of the stars on the court this weekend.

To pick just one star from Penn baseball’s four-game demolition of bitter rival and defending Ivy League champion Princeton — a series that saw the Quakers take four wins by a combined score of 35-12 — seems like it’d be a crime. But even in a weekend full of standout performances, the consistent offensive dominance from senior outfielder Tim Graul stood out from the pack.


With a ridiculous stat line including ten hits, eight runs and six RBI in Penn baseball's four-game sweep of Princeton, senior outfielder Tim Graul is an easy choice as the Penn Athletics Weekend MVP.

With Penn women's lacrosse needing to win to stay in Ivy title contention, senior Emily Rogers-Healion certainly did her part, with five goals and one assist in a 17-7 trouncing of Columbia.

Junior third baseman Molly Oretsky has been on a tear lately for the Red and Blue, with hits in five straight games.

The bats are coming alive at the right time for Penn softball. The Red and Blue defeated Drexel 10-3 on Wednesday and can now shift their focus onto the weekend as they await Ivy League-leading Princeton for a crucial set of doubleheaders around the diamond.


This weekend at USTA Tennis On Campus National Championship, Penn club tennis will try to move into a top-20 spot in the nation.

Of the diverse myriad of club sports teams at Penn, club tennis can always count itself among the most successful in comparison to its yearly competition. Only the best are allowed the privilege to compete, a process that trims the team down to an elite group — a group which surprised no one when it announced that it'll be headed to the USTA Tennis On Campus National Championship this week.



Junior sprinter Taylor McCorkle is looking forward to hosting her counterparts from across the pond — but the Ivy League's second-seeded 100m dash runner will have to focus first on pursuing new personal bests. 

With the advent of Quaker Days, students from all over the world have come to Penn this week to see what the University has to offer. This weekend, we’ll be getting even more. Penn track and field’s annual Transatlantic Meet will take place at Franklin Field on Saturday, with Ivy League heavyweights Cornell coming to Philadelphia along with a pair of English powerhouses in Oxford and Cambridge.






Senior Sydney Stipanovich and junior Michelle Nwokedi were recognized for their stellar play this past season with Big 5 honors.

Penn women's basketball may have ended its season almost a month ago, but the awards haven't stopped coming in, recognizing the team's standout season. Junior forward Michelle Nwokedi was just named a member of the All-Big 5 First-Team of the season, while senior center Sydney Stipanovich picked up a Second-Team honor herself. 


Senior captain and defensive midfielder Austin Krienz has had a huge impact for the Quakers this season, but one that does not show up in traditional stats like goals and assists.

Operating from the defensive midfield, the senior might go unnoticed by the casual observer. For those interested in the Quakers solely for the highlight reel goals and doorstep saves, a player like Kreinz might not even be on their radar. He clears, he plays defensively, he scoops up ground balls, and he provides the occasional transition tally, but he’s by no means a goal scorer.
