From the outset, Penn (1-0) dominated the game in possessions and shots as well as shots on goal.

Shortly and sweetly revisit each game of the Quakers’ 9-6-1 campaign from a year ago.

Every year, Penn’s defense is up to snuff with the very best of them. Last year, though, Penn’s offense didn’t hold up its end of the bargain. This year, these Quakers are primed to put up a few more numbers that Ambrose can be proud of on the attack.

The Quakers’ defense lost Erin Thayer, Alex Dayneka and goalkeeper Sarah Banks, but a hallmark of the program that has shone through — especially in the early portion of the season — is the interchangeability of players in different positions and the flexibility that it has allowed coach Darren Ambrose to continue to mold the team.

Though brother and sister Kaitlyn and Ryan Moore are separated by more than 3,000 miles during the school year, they’ve found an interesting way to stay connected with one another: soccer.

With the departure of Erin Beck, the fulcrum of Penn women’s soccer’s attack for the last two years, the Quakers have had to search for a replacement for a two-year captain and one of the best players in program history.

Today, the women’s soccer season commences, and thus, it’s time for us sportswriters to get together and make predictions on matters about which we know not.

Shortly and sweetly remember each of the Quakers’ nailbiters from last year.

At the end of the 2012 cross country season, the Quakers’ future proved bright with several stellar performances by the team’s youth. And now coach Steve Dolan is gearing up to kick the sophomore slump altogether.

On Monday, the Quakers picked up their first commitment for their upcoming recruiting class in Mike Auger. We sat down with Auger to discuss why he chose Penn, his relationship with the men’s hoops coaching staff and his role on the basketball court.

So, you think you can run, huh? Come with us on a guided tour of the Lehigh University cross country course, where the Quakers will run on Oct. 5 for the Paul Short Invitational and Nov. 15 for the NCAA East Regional Championships.

Losing an impact player is never an easy adjustment, but losing one of Whit Shaw’s caliber means Penn’s receiving corps needs to step up. However, Nick Longtin and the rest of the receiving corps have the utmost confidence in the next crop of young pass catchers.

Youth will be no excuse for sprint football heading into this season. But, a bigger concern for Wagner is the loss of sophomore Mack Pierson with Pierson out for the season after suffering an upper body injury.

In 2012, Penn sprint football went through a roller coaster season filled with frantic finishes. Here’s the top three moments from last year’s 3-5 season.
