We’re beginning to realize that Princeton may no longer be the Hobbes to Penn’s Calvin and the Tigers may indeed be for real

Given that the Quakers have really been living up to their name this season, it seems almost unfair to write a trash-talk column about them.

It may be the 229th meeting in the Penn-Princeton rivalry, but for Penn basketball, it is only game number one. Let the Ivy season begin.

Princeton women’s basketball came into the Ivy season as the definitive favorite to win the conference, but a new-look Quakers team seems poised to challenge the Tigers.

Penn women’s basketball traveled to Baltimore, Md. on Wednesday and handily defeated Morgan State, 85-51, pushing their record to 8-2 on the year.

It’s been more than seven weeks since Penn President Amy Gutmann announced that Athletic Director Steve Bilsky will retire effective June 30.

The Quakers arrived early in the morning but came out with energy from the opening tip, easily taking down the Spartans, 79-49, extending their winning streak to seven games.

The Red and Blue’s problems were on full display against the Explorers, leading Penn to an embarrassing 76-57 defeat.

It may be a new year, but Penn Wrestling’s performance at the Southern Scuffle was rather familiar as the squad achieved limited success up and down the lineup.

On a snowy Thursday evening, Penn dropped its sixth straight game, falling to George Mason at the Patriot Center, 80-77, after Tony Hicks couldn’t connect on a game-tying three-pointer.

After blowing a double digit lead in the second half, the Quakers were able to keep their win streak intact, pulling off a 67-66 upset over Miami.

Over the last six years, Penn basketball has taken on a losing mentality and that needs to change in 2014.

The Quakers let another game slip through their fingers, culminating in a game-winning three-pointer by Rider’s Anthony Myles with just 26.1 to go, finishing off Penn, 89-88.

After an embarrassing loss to a Marist team that started the season 0-9, Penn basketball is reeling. And looking at the way this season has gone, it wasn’t surprising.

Penn lost handily on the road against a lowly Marist squad, 76-62, extending its losing streak to four straight games and dropping its overall record to 2-7 on the year.

After falling behind by 19 points in the first half, the Quakers fought all the way back to topple Drexel in the final seconds at the Palestra, 46-44.
