Penn women’s basketball’s match-up against La Salle was a messy, messy contest.

Fall sports have ended, but nonetheless, these Quakers' outstanding seasons are ones to remember, ranging from veteran, senior captains to inexperienced freshmen.

Now that fall sports have come to a close, here's a look at how seven Quaker teams did this year. 

For Penn women's basketball senior guard Mia Lakstigala, the COVID-19 pandemic heavily affected what was supposed to be a collegiate career spent competing for the Ivy League title. Instead, the last time she played a full season of basketball was in the 2018-19 season — when she was just a freshman.

As the fall season comes to a close — the first since 2019 — we take a look at five interesting statistics from fall sports teams that were exceptionally noteworthy.

Penn women's basketball played close games against UCSD and Memphis, beating the former while falling to the latter in overtime in Los Angeles. 

With almost all of Penn’s usual starting lineup serving suspensions, save for sophomore forward Jordan Obi, the absence of Villanova star Maddy Siegrist due to injury still didn’t feel like enough for Penn to come out with a win against its strongest opponent thus far. And yet the team almost did, losing 66-63.

Penn men and women's squash had another four-match weekend after the team's season debuts last week. 

Penn women’s basketball dropped its first game of the season with a 66-63 loss against the Villanova Wildcats at the Palestra. Additionally, this loss marks their first in Big 5 play. 

Penn women’s basketball (3-0, 0-0 Ivy) capitalized on its momentum on Thursday evening, winning 63-46 on the road against St. Francis Brooklyn (1-3).

Penn women’s basketball match against the King’s College Monarchs was a tale of two entirely different offenses.

Winter sports are in full swing this weekend, as the last remaining fall sports see their conclusions.

After a 43-point victory at Hartford on Sunday, Penn women’s basketball returned to the Palestra for its first home game of the season, defeating King’s College 91-55. 

Penn men’s and women’s cross country team competed at the NCAA Mid-Atlantic Regional Championship hosted by Lehigh on Nov. 12. 

This past weekend marked the first official matches for Penn's squash teams since March 2020, which was before the COVID-19 pandemic shut down Ivy League athletics. The Red and Blue hosted Chatham, Drexel, Dickinson, and Franklin & Marshall at the Penn Squash Center for a two-day tournament. 

But for some fall sports in the Ivy League, the end of the regular season is just that: the end. Instead of preparing for a conference championship game or a conference tournament, these teams head into their offseason to prepare for the next year. 

On Sunday, the Quakers tipped off the 2021-22 season in West Hartford, Conn. against Hartford.
