Second place would be fine for most programs in most years, but not these ones. Expectations are high, and justifiably so. At least one of these programs will win the conference.

The bar for success, having been lowered so demonstrably by the previous week’s outing at Columbia, was surpassed despite the final score. 

Penn football has 18 Ivy League titles, tied for the most with Dartmouth. They will not win a 19th this season. 

Paying college athletes isn't as simple as it sounds, though. First of all, where does the money come from? The way I see it, there are multiple ways players could be compensated, but each comes with its own caveat.

Beneath all of this lies a simple theoretical doctrine at the core of the economic system we’ve all been taught to love: capitalism’s insistence that the work you do must be compensated with a wage. 

In their home and Ivy League opener, Penn football failed to muster much offense against Dartmouth before losing, 28-15. 

The fact that the Red and Blue were in that position, where a single play could give them a great chance at a win, should be viewed as a positive moving forward. 

I don’t think Penn football will be particularly good this year. I also hope they prove me wrong. 

Penn women’s soccer lost their opener, yet this game may have been the next big step towards national relevance for the program.

If Penn Athletics has a goal to increase student attendance at basketball games, this season’s schedule is a major swing and miss.

When you play a sport, you know how much time, effort, and passion go into it. On the flip side, you also know how many people think you just show up and play.

At this point, there is nothing stopping Penn men's lacrosse from winning the NCAA Tournament.

With all the excitement this past weekend, Penn men's lacrosse's Ivy League title clinch might have flown a bit under the radar.

Sports have the amazing ability of fostering a greater sense of community, irrespective of individual backgrounds. A sense of community has valuable implications for mental health.

There are several things I’d like to note in the recently published DP articles which argued for and against the compensation of collegiate athletes. 

The Red and Blue didn’t show their wear and tear, getting off to a hot start against the visiting Eagles.

Why are class absences due to varsity sport competition not recognized under school policy as excused absences?
