While every team has reason to miss its graduating class of athletes after a season ends, that loss can sometimes be less painful when countered by the promise of incoming new talent. And with the recruiting class that the program has pulled together, Penn men’s soccer has every reason to be smiling. Coach Rudy Fuller and his staff recently announced the Quakers’ group of recruits for Penn’s Class for 2019, and the eight men who will join the Quakers next fall represent one of the best classes the Red and Blue have put together in recent memory.

Don’t call it a comeback. But in the case of the men’s lacrosse team’s game at Saint Joseph’s last night, a comeback is exactly the right word to use. In the first two periods at Sweeney Field, the Quakers (2-0) allowed seven unanswered goals from the Hawks (1-2) before clawing back to win 11-10 in overtime.

Ariel Koren, president of the class of 2015, was selected to represent Penn as part of msnbc's Women in Politics: College Edition series meant to highlight female leaders in student government across universities throughout the country.  Koren's interview ranged from which female leaders inspired her to whether or not she would run for presidential office.  In response to what her biggest challenge as a leader at Penn was, Koren explained that her biggest challenge as a female leader in particular was "figuring out how to find the balance between celebrating [her] identity as a woman with being an effective leader in general." She emphasized the class' diversity and the "exciting challenge" it has been to be able to find ways to "be a voice for everyone." When asked what was the best piece of professional advice she had ever received, Koren cited motivation speaker Chade-Meng, who advised her on the importance of vulnerability.
