While the spring season is just getting started for Penn women’s golf, it’s been a journey long in the making, dating back to last year. The current academic year featured four fall tournaments — and they started with a bang.

Unlike other Penn sports teams, the golf teams do not have a course that they can practice on located on or very near campus.

What’s a team to do when it’s already reached the pinnacle of a conference? Reload, of course. Penn men’s golf will rely heavily on new faces if it is to contend once again in 2016.

In its final hurrah of the 2015-16 season, Penn fencing fought through four days of intense competition at NCAA Championships in Waltham, Mass., to take eighth and score 98 points.

While most of Penn’s campus was rejoicing over a beautiful spring weekend, Penn women’s tennis headed to Princeton, N.J., with the hopes of doing something they have failed to do since 2008: Beat the Tigers.

Perfection is hard to reach in sports. To be able to play an entire game without a single blemish is something that few can claim to do.

No matter the team, it is commonplace to worry about the potential for trap games. Regardless of the opponent’s record, an Ivy League contest is a battle with a rival, and wins never come easy.

Every senior hopes for a storybook ending when they get ready to compete for the last time, and that’s just what Penn men's swimming senior Chris Swanson got at this weekend's NCAA National Swimming and Diving Championship.

You should never dig a hole that you can’t crawl out of. Unfortunately for Penn women’s lacrosse, the hole that they dug for themselves in the first part of Wednesday’s game was just a bit too deep. The No. 14 Quakers squared off with the top team in the nation under the lights at Franklin Field, falling to Maryland by a score of 12-8 in a game that appeared to be a comfortable win for the Terrapins (7-0) until about 10 minutes in to the second half.

It’s championship season, and while most eyes are on the basketball this week, Penn has a chance to make the podium nationally in the pool.

They say the enemy of your enemy is your friend, but do not go telling that to either Penn or Princeton when they meet for Ivy openers this weekend.

There’s no other way of putting it — it’s the end of an era. Penn men's swimming legend Chris Swanson has one meet left to bear the colors Red and Blue.

While the season may be over for Penn’s basketball teams, the awards keep coming in.

Penn track and field has its fair share of stars, and in 2015 all of the stars aligned.

Historically in athletics, men and women of respective professional sports do not train with or compete against each other.

Five track and field freshmen to watch out for in 2016

For the second consecutive weekend, Penn track and field will host a meet at Franklin Field, with Saturday’s Penn Challenge against Army, Manhattan, Rider, Villanova and Connecticut just days away. While there will be some similarities between the Penn Challenge and last weekend’s Philadelphia College Classic, sophomore Jeff Wiseman says there is a key difference in the level of competition. “The competition is a lot stronger,” he said.
