After a convincing 5-2 victory in game one of Saturday's doubleheader at Meiklejohn Stadium, Penn seemed to be rolling. The Quakers had weathered the excessive rain delay, and after taking a 6-1 lead in the first three innings of game two, they looked to be on their way to an easy sweep.

For the second-straight year, the men's golf team used the Princeton Invitational as its final tuneup before the Ivy League Championship. And for the second-straight year, the host school defeated all of the participating Ancient Eight foes. "If there's such a thing in golf as home-team advantage, then Princeton had it this weekend," Penn junior Michael Blodgett said.

After much delay, the South Street Bridge Replacement Project finally appears poised to begin - but community members are still trying to assert their views about the project. Community members have been critical of the design put forth by the city, and last month the South Street Bridge Coalition commissioned urban planning firm Wallace Roberts & Todd L.

For the second year in a row, Penn gymnast Marissa Rosen will miss out on Spring Fling. Believe it or not, she has somewhere better to be. Tomorrow, Rosen will represent the Quakers at the NCAA Northeast Regionals at Penn State. Her qualifying score of 38.

This weekend will be a make-or-break moment for the women's tennis team. Though the Quakers (7-7, 2-1 Ivy) are officially in fourth place in the Ivy League, that's only because there's a three-way tie atop the standings. Penn sits just one game back, and this weekend it hosts Harvard (2-12, 2-0) and Dartmouth (14-1, 2-0) - two of the conference's three undefeated schools.

Rachit Shukla wanted to prove he could start a functioning company in 24 hours. So, he did it. Last week, Shukla, who graduated from Wharton in December, launched the humor T-shirt site StartupWear.com overnight, "just for fun," he said. At Penn, Shukla is not alone in joining the Internet start-up culture.

While Spring Fling might mean a break for Penn students, it means extra work for Penn Police. The Division of Public Safety plans to increase the number of officers on patrol this weekend because of the increase in guests for Fling, Capt. Gerald Leddy, special events coordinator at DPS, said.

The Trustees' Council of Penn Women presented their highest tribute, the TCPW Beacon Award, to Justice Sandra Day O'Connor yesterday in a presentation for alumni and students in Huntsman Hall Auditorium. O'Connor, who served as the first female member of the United States Supreme Court from 1981 to 2005, is the ninth recipient of the TCPW Beacon Award.

The Ivy League title may be practically out of reach, but when the Penn men's lacrosse team squares off against Brown on Saturday, the prospect of finishing with a winning record in conference play is enough to keep the Quakers (5-4, 3-2 Ivy) motivated. "It's important for us to have a winning record in the league," coach Brian Voelker said.

A generous-paying job offer can mark a happy finale to a Penn education, but at the Engineering school, making sure students are ready can be a difficult task. With zealous recruiters, job-hungry students and a field changing faster than ever before, SEAS administrators and professors are now questioning how much weight to put on career-training in the school, one whose curriculum has long been rooted in teaching students fundamentals.

Tonight at midnight, "hooligans and whores" will mingle with students. Reefer Madness, Quadramics' 35th annual Spring Fling musical, opened last night at the Iron Gate Theater. For the fourth year, the show will be performed tonight at midnight immediately following the Fling concert on Franklin Field.

For many Penn students, the perks of being a Resident Advisor are pretty obvious: free room and board, a meal plan with endless Dining Dollars, freedom from the tyranny of Campus Apartments and absolute authority over dozens of feeble freshmen. But as much as anyone would appreciate having rent-free housing, some students certainly need it more than others.

In softball, a game dominated by statistics, numbers can often be the most daunting aspect of an opponent. Cornell (25-7, 7-1 Ivy League) has won eight straight en route to its Ancient Eight-best overall record. Penn coach Leslie King is unfazed by the Big Red, whom her team will play in back-to-back doubleheaders this weekend.

Everywhere Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) goes, students seem to follow. In all but three states this year, Obama has won the youth vote and dramatically increased young-voter registration and turn out at the polls. But with the Democratic race unlikely to end soon, many are wondering what will happen with young voters in the fall, particularly if Sen.

Last year, the Penn women's lacrosse team beat Dartmouth for the first time in exactly 16 years. This year, as the No. 6 Quakers (9-1, 4-0 Ivy) try to win in Hanover, N.H. tomorrow for the first time since April 9, 1988, the stakes aren't quite as high as last year when the teams were first and third in the standings.
