The Ivy League announced its women's basketball postseason awards on Wednesday, and a pair of Penn players took home two of the three main accolades.

Shock and disbelief swept through Penn's student-athletes, coaches, and training staff this week as the Ivy League announced its cancellation of the spring sports season due to coronavirus.

The decision was made unanimously by the Ivy League presidents and affects both practices and competitions. 

Basketball players, coaches, and fans have taken to the internet to express their disappointment and anger with the League's decision, hoping that collective action may result in a reconsideration from the Ancient Eight's governing body.

The teams knew that there was a possibility that the men's and women's tournaments would be played without spectators. Canceling the tournament altogether, though? No one saw it coming.

While the coronavirus is legitimately concerning, the logical jump from wanting to limit the size of large crowds to an outright cancellation of the tournament is not obvious when there were other options on the table. 

The decision occurred after Harvard, the host of the tournament, announced it was moving classes online following its spring break.

Some athletes arrive at the beginning of their freshman year and immediately rise to the top. For others, countless hours of hard work and commitment are required to claw their way there.

Sometimes the best decisions are the ones we never saw coming. For Penn senior Phoebe Sterba, this has proven especially true.
