This game was all Penn, with only a small side of State. The No. 6 women's lacrosse team turned in its most dominant performance of the season, using a 12-0 run to handily defeat No. 19 Penn State 14-7. Although the Nittany Lions were able to answer the Quakers' first two goals, the third launched an offensive explosion that would not cool down until midway through the second half.

After months of hard work and preparation, the bracket has been announced, teams are traveling cross-country and a national championship is on the line. It's time for a collegiate tournament in March. Yes, the NCAA Wrestling Championships are here. Today through Saturday, the Scottrade Center will host the Division I Wrestling Championship in St.

Since January, Penn gymnastics has battled its way through four dual-meets, two tri-meets, two tournaments and one quad-meet without ever coming out on top. And now, in the last regular-season meet of the year, the Quakers finally picked up that elusive win.

The Penn men's tennis team dispatched Navy 7-0 last year, but with injuries and losses piling up over the past two weeks, this year's matchup figured to be a struggle. The Midshipmen swept the doubles point to take an early lead, and five of six singles matches went to three sets, but the Quakers managed to grind out a 4-3 overall victory to snap a six-match losing skid.

The Ann Arbor News, a paper with a modest circulation of 50,000, published an ambitious, four-part series this week detailing the dirty administrative tricks that the University of Michigan used to keep its athletes eligible and functioning. A refreshing piece of reporting, the series has since endured the wrath of dozens of angry Wolverine lifers, excusing the inexcusable.

There are some 700 golf courses on the continent of Australia, all of which golftoday.com deems "prestigious" and "picturesque." Meg Bender didn't want to see even one of them. "I've been playing golf since I was five or six," the women's golf team senior said.

This year's men's golf team has an opportunity to do something that it has only had a chance to do once before: defend the Ivy League title. But the 2008 Quakers squad will have to find its own way to win because only two of the five starters from last year's championship lineup return.

If Marissa Rosen keeps this up for two more years, she will earn her place in Quakers history as one of Penn best gymnasts. As a freshman, Rosen won an Ivy Classic individual title on the beam, a performance she followed this year by claiming an individual title on the vault.

Too much sun is bad for you anyway, right? After an uneven 10-day, seven-game swing in Boca Raton, Fla., the Penn baseball team is heading north of Philadelphia - to Ambler, Pa. - for its first showdown back in the northeast. There, the Quakers (3-5) will meet Temple (7-7) at the Owls' Skip Wilson Field this afternoon.

One of Penn's winningest teams, No. 6 women's lacrosse, will finally play its first game in front of a home crowd, as the squad suits up at Franklin Field tonight against its intrastate rival, No. 19 Penn State. The Quakers (4-1, 1-0 Ivy) will have their work cut out for them against the Nittany Lions (2-3), whose losing record is misleading.

At the U.S. Amateur Championship this past summer, a very familiar face was there to support senior men's golf captain Dean Merrill. And if onlookers couldn't tell golfer from caddy, they couldn't be blamed. That's because Dean's younger brother Ross, a freshman and Penn golf teammate, was the one lugging his bags.

It has been a painful month for the men's tennis team - in more ways than one. Not only have the Quakers lost six consecutive matches, they have also suffered a litany of injuries to several top players. The Quakers (7-7), who are hoping to reverse their fortunes and get their season back on track, will travel to Annapolis, Md.

With Cornell returning nearly every player from this year's undefeated squad, you would have to be crazy not to pick the Big Red to repeat as champions. Call me crazy, or call me partial, but Penn will win the Ivy League next season. The Quakers finished the season with six Ivy League losses; to contend for the title next year, that number will probably have to fall to no more than one.

Sunday marked the end of a season for Penn fencing and the end of an accomplished career for men's captain Ron Berkowsky. In front of a hometown crowd, Ohio State's Andras Horanyi permanently dashed Berkowsky's hopes of a national championship for the second year in a row.

Led by senior runner Jesse Carlin, four Penn women entered the history books when they were named All-Americans at the NCAA Spring Indoor Track & Field Championships this past weekend. Carlin advanced to the 800m finals at the University of Arkansas track on Sunday, finishing with a season-best time of 2:06:48.

Coach Glen Miller said that, at Penn, "it's first place or last place." But with two straight wins to close the season, the Quakers at least avoided their first losing Ivy campaign in 17 years. After losing a heartbreaker to Cornell, Penn defeated both Columbia and Princeton to finish with an 8-6 league record, good enough to stand alone in third place.

Thus far, the men's lacrosse team has seen its share of ups and downs, and its spring break road trips proved to be no exception. At the two-day Pioneer Faceoff Classic, hosted by Denver, the Quakers dispatched Air Force 13-10 on March 8 before failing to upset the host school, losing 12-11 in overtime.
