Alexa Schneck kept up her hot streak for Penn field hockey, finding the back of the goal twice and adding an assist in Saturday’s 3-2 overtime victory against Dartmouth. 

Penn’s double overtime 3-2 win in Hanover marked the Quaker’s fourth consecutive win against the Big Green, giving them a winning record in the Ivy League thus far. 

The Quakers put a display of defensive power and restricted a potent Columbia offense to only four shots on goal in a 1-0 victory.

Both the men and women of Penn cross country are very familiar with the Garden State, with double-digit numbers on each team representing the state to our east, totaling nearly half of each group.

The 2018 Quakers are a special team. And while week in and week out, they are playing 90 strong minutes of soccer, it is that latter 45 that sets them apart from the pack. 

In this week's edition of Is Stat So?, defenses across the board had an impressive weekend, and football gave up touchdowns to an unlikely group of players.

Penn field hockey finished with a split result, losing a tight conference contest to No. 12 Harvard 2-1 on Saturday before rebounding with a comprehensive 3-0 victory against crosstown rival Temple.

The Quakers lost to Brown in a tight five-set match at the Palestra after falling to Yale in straight sets the previous day. 

In its 2-0 victory, Penn held Cornell to just three shots on goal with the Big Red struggling to break down an organized Quakers' defense that has now kept a clean sheet for more than 360 minutes.

The Quakers went back to back this weekend, with some of the men's team competing at the Nuttycombe Wisconsin Invitational in Madison, Wis. on Friday and the rest of the men and women's team racing the next day at the Paul Short Run in Bethlehem Pa.

Last season, the team scored only 10 goals en route to a 5-8-3 record. This season, the team has already shattered last year’s mark, putting up 15 goals through half as many games

The Quakers are set to play against Yale and Brown this week at home, and the battles will each bring their own set of unique challenges.

After a scoreless tie against Harvard this past weekend, Penn is looking for its first win in Ivy League play. On Saturday, the Quakers will get the opportunity on the road against Cornell.

The Quakers will be split between two meets over the weekend: the Nuttycombe Invitational in Madison, Wis. on Friday, and the Paul Short Invitational in Bethlehem, Pa. on Saturday. 

No. 19 Penn will face an uphill battle against No. 8 Harvard, who crushed Yale, 6-0, in its Ivy opener this past weekend. The day after playing Harvard, the Quakers will look to get their fourth win in four years over Temple.

The Quakers were able to hold off Cornell in their Ivy opener on Saturday, winning 1-0. But the Red and Blue lost in a heartbreaking shootout against No. 12 Syracuse the next day, 2-1. 

In this week's edition of Is Stat So?, scoreless streaks were extended for Penn's two soccer teams, running backs kept the ball moving, and defenses came up strong.
