Once again, Harvard ruined a perfect afternoon. In their first, last and only home meet of the season, the Penn men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams hosted Brown and Harvard for the final Ivy dual race of the season.

This one has been a long time coming. For the first time since 1989, the Penn men’s swimming and diving team defeated Princeton in a dual meet, handing the defending Ivy League champions their first loss of the season 192-108.

While it might be a new season for Penn men’s and women’s swimming and diving, the big names haven’t changed that much.

On a day when everything else in the Ivy League went right for Penn, one moment was enough to break the spirits of women’s soccer. 

After a demoralizing loss to Harvard last week, it was hard not to wonder if last year’s scoring draught had returned to haunt the Penn women’s soccer team.

If you got to Rhodes Field 10 minutes late for Sunday’s game, then you missed a couple of things. 

On Saturday, amid perfect conditions, Penn’s two track programs combined for 11 event victories and several personal best times at the Chester Quarry Classic, hosted by Widener University.

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.

Ten games in seven days. That’s how Penn softball spent its spring break, as the team kicked off their 2016 season with a week of training and competition in Clearwater, Fla.

The phrase, all time best, gets tossed around a lot in sports. However no other phrase better captures Penn’s Mens Swimming and Diving team performance at this year’s Ivy League Championship meet. Penn claimed a school-record six individual Ivy League titles en route to an program record of 1,213.5 points at the championships.
