With only seven contests determining the Ivy League champion, every match is crucial. But the Penn men's tennis team will have more than just capturing the league crown on its agenda this weekend - they'll be seeking revenge. Last spring, the Quakers were left to wonder what could have been after they lost in a one-match playoff against Brown to determine the league's automatic NCAA tournament bid.

It's been two years since Lenka Snajdrova played competitive tennis, but she hasn't needed nearly that long to find her stroke again.

Three weeks before the internationally acclaimed Penn Relays take place at Franklin Field, the men's and women's track and field teams are looking to break in the home turf a bit at this weekend's Penn Invitational. The men's team will certainly want to defend its home turf coming from last week's disappointing third-place performance in Annapolis for the Navy Invitational.

Just over halfway through the 2007 season, the Quakers have ridden their revamped pitching staff to the best overall record in the Ivy League.

On a six-game winning streak and at the head of the Ivy pack, the Penn women's lacrosse team can continue its roll tomorrow at Harvard. And no one's guessing as to why.

Ever taken a three-year test? Most likely not, but Ivy League fencers are currently in year two of their three-year-long evaluation. Two years ago, the Ivies agreed to implement a new schedule format on a "trial basis," as Associate Director of the Ivy League Chuck Yrigoyen described it.

During his high school career, Penn midfielder David Cornbrooks had one chance to compete against his younger brother in lacrosse.

Why Harvard's search for a new hoops coach should be about more than finding a winner.

Now that Joe Scott has left Princeton for the clear skies and lower expectations of Denver, athletic director Gary Walters and the Tigers are left with a monumental decision: Should Princeton maintain the coaching lineage of Pete Carril or should they focus solely on winning?
