For many of the teams at Penn, postgame tailgates provide a space for friends and family to congregate after a match or meet.

In the 2018 season, the Schwenksville, Pa. native started 13 of the team's 17 games, playing every minute against 10 opponents.

With a number of Penn teams starting their respective seasons this weekend, here are three pressing questions that will be answered by next week.

Competing for one’s national team is not only a badge of honor, but also the very ingredient needed to influence the next era of the program’s history.

This weekend, Penn tennis, rowing, and golf will continue their seasons against Ivy League opponents. Here are three questions for the upcoming competitions. 

The Quakers walked away with a pair of championships in the Varsity 8 and the Second Varsity 8.

Coming off a 5-2 record in Ivy League play and placing second in the conference, Penn looked to clinch the title this weekend. The squad took home a third place finish for the best finish in Penn squash history. 

As Penn men's and women's basketball continue Ivy League play against Brown and Yale, several other Penn Athletics teams will look to find success in competitions across the country. 

With the loss of several key seniors, the introduction of a new freshmen squad, and the departure of senior Justin Yoo for a shot at the Olympics, both Penn men's fencing and the rest of the Ivy League will look far different from last year. 

This Saturday, Penn men’s and women’s fencing will head to Ohio State in Columbus, Ohio for its second tournament of the season: the Elite Invitational. The Quakers will face Ohio State, Penn State, Notre Dame, North Carolina, and Northwestern (women only).
