The men's golf team traveled to Notre Dame over the weekend, but the Quakers didn't get any luck of the Irish. Everything about the one-day tournament challenged the Quakers, who carded a team score of 601. That put them in seventh out of nine schools competing.


The Quakers are getting used to playing in close games. They're almost getting too used to it. On Saturday afternoon at Dartmouth, the Red and Blue built up a six-goal lead in the first half, only to see the Big Green torch them for seven of the next eight goals, tying the game at eight and forcing overtime.

Penn coach Gwen Harris was cheering Shaunee Morgan right to the finish line in the 400-meter run. But with about 10 meters to go, Harris came to her senses. Harris's frantic "Come on!"s and "All right!"s gave way to a calmer "Relax, relax, relax." Relax, Shaunee Morgan.

Facing a Dartmouth team hitting over .320 on the season, the Quakers knew that keeping the ball off their opponent's sweet spot would have to be a high priority. But when you hand out 16 free passes in two contests, winning the hits column of the box score usually isn't enough.

The men's tennis team is now once again in control of its own destiny. Thanks to decisive 6-1 and 5-2 victories over Yale and Brown, respectively - paired with Princeton losses to the same two teams - the Quakers (11-8, 2-1 Ivy) catapulted themselves back into a tie for second place with four matches remaining.

San Diego may have been a pleasant respite from the dreary weekend weather in Philadelphia, but men's heavyweight coach Fred Honebein hopes that his team is "pissed off" after its trip out West. The team struggled, finishing 10th overall in the San Diego Crew Classic.

While most of his peers were playing little league baseball and Pop Warner football, senior Ben Nace was focusing on a more unorthodox athletic pursuit - becoming a world-class rower. Although he now hails from Dallas, Nace credits his family's northeastern roots for inspiring him to pursue his passion for rowing.

Before heading back on the road, the Penn's women's lacrosse team still has to tie up one loose end at home. The Quakers (8-1, 3-0 Ivy) look to extend their six-game win streak against Harvard at Franklin Field on Sunday. On paper, the Quakers should breeze to a win.

Tale of 2 teams for W. Tennis

In its second weekend of Ivy play, the Penn women's tennis team faces opponents at two ends of the spectrum Yale (5-8, 1-0 Ivy) has butted heads with a number of national powerhouses; Brown (9-5, 0-1 Ivy) is a middling team with a schedule softer than a Tempur-pedic.


Track | Penn Invitational: Look who's coming to town

Some of the country's fastest runners will meet tomorrow at Franklin Field for the annual Penn Invitational. Nearly two dozen schools - including strong Ivy foes Cornell and Columbia - will compete. On the women's side, Penn's four All-American runners - Jesse Carlin, Claire Kim, Stacy Kim and Shaunee Morgan - are top seeds in the events in which they will compete.


No dancing, but retribution and 5.59 ERA await

Two years ago, the Penn and Harvard softball teams used a rain delay to stage an impromptu dance party. But this year's Quakers will go to Boston on Sunday with a very different mindset: Revenge for their 2007 Ivy League Championship loss. Before Penn (16-8, 3-1 Ivy) plays two against the Crimson (7-14, 0-2), it will take a seven-hour bus ride to Hanover, N.



M. Lax | Brushing off a loss

As the Penn men's lacrosse team ran onto the practice field yesterday, shouting and cheering, it was clear that last Saturday's 13-5 loss against No. 8 Cornell wasn't on anybody's mind. The focus this week has been tomorrow's matchup with Dartmouth (4-4, 0-1 Ivy).


Baseball heads north for Ivy slate

Harvard's record is a measly 1-17 overall and 0-2 in the Ivy League. Dartmouth was dead last in the Rolfe Division last year. But Penn's top starting pitcher and captain Todd Roth is not looking forward to the northward road trip his team has on tap. "It's probably gonna be a really long weekend," he said.


HRs get glory, but small-ball's the story

In the fifth inning of yesterday's nightcap against Saint Joseph's, Penn's seemingly-safe 6-1 lead appeared to be slipping away. Paul Cusick walked two in the top of the frame and allowed the Hawks to pull within three runs before he stranded the bases loaded.

Scoring in the first minute, and going on a 4-1 run in the middle of the first half, the women's lacrosse team appeared to be running away with a victory against No. 15 Johns Hopkins last night. But the Blue Jays stormed back in the second half and scored five unanswered goals in the final 22 minutes.
