After falling just short of a MAAC Tournament berth last season, the women's soccer team is out to prove their worth this year.

After his first losing season in a decade, coach Al Bagnoli knew some changes were in line for Penn's storied football program.

There's nothing like a fresh fall season to bring life back into the summer months vacant of collegiate athletic activity. Besides clearing the slate from the previous year, the most entertaining part of the new school year in sports is seeing how teams will deal with the loss of their key senior players and how the new freshmen will help to fill this void.

For the second straight season, Robert Irvin is battling back from severe shoulder surgery. And once again, the quarterback - who started all 10 games as a sophomore in 2006 - must vie for his old job.

Many at the College were stunned last year when beloved men's baseball coach Rick Dell headed east to serve as an ambassador for the game he's always loved. One year later, it looks like the move was a success for Dell, who was a major player at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, even tossing out the first pitch during an opening round game between the United States and Korea.
