Flingin’ in the Rain Last call: Harvest closes for good

Strobe lights lit up Penn park on Friday night as students danced in heavy showers to Fling performers Tinashe and Zedd.

The announcement ends months of speculation following a fire in January SYDNEY SCHAEDEL Senior News Editor

Harvest Seasonal Grill and Wine Bar will not be reopening, a Facilities and Real Estate administrator said Friday.

This confirmation comes after months of speculation about the popular restaurant’s future after its building on 40th and Walnut streets was damaged by a fire in January.

The CEO of the Harvest restaurant line Dave Magrogan wrote in an email in February that “at first [the damage] appeared minor but the combination of the fire and the efforts of the fire department to extinguish the fire caused substantial damage.”

By April, students told The Daily Pennsylvanian they missed the bar and restaurant, but were not hopeful that it would reopen.

Ed Datz, the executive director for Real Estate at FRES, wrote in an emailed statement Friday that “Harvest Grill and Wine Bar (200 S 40th Street) has been closed since January 2017 and will not be reopening.”

“The Real Estate Department of Penn’s Facilities & Real Estate Services is currently working with its retail broker to identify a new tenant for this restaurant space,” he wrote. “The goal is to find a tenant that will appeal to both the University and surrounding community — there is no timeline at this time for a new opening.”

Harvest’s official closure comes in the midst of another real estate battle across the street.

The University has announced that an Acme supermarket will replace Fresh Grocer at 40th and Walnut streets, but Fresh Grocer disputes Penn’s claim they did not renew their lease in time.

College students Paul Greenough and Ryan Berlin come from schools where similar spring fling events were only one-day long.

For some transfer students at Penn, Spring Fling evoked memories of their old universities.

College sophomore Paul Greenough spent his freshman year at George Mason University. He said Fling reminded him of Mason Day, a one-day annual event when the school sets up amusement park rides and holds a

concert on campus.

Last year’s performer at Mason Day was rapper Juicy J. Greenough said the event starts at 2 p.m., the concert begins at 8 p.m. and everything finishes by 10 p.m. He called this “low-key and underwhelming” compared to Penn, where Fling events happen throughout the entire week.

“Fling is part of the culture at Penn,” Greenough said. “Right when I got in, I started to hear, ‘you’re going to love Fling,’ and I just kept thinking, ‘what is SEE TRANSFER PAGE 3

Penn gathered in Houston Hall for their annual Fling Feast.

Held every year on the Friday of Fling, the feast serves as a way for the Orthodox Jewish community to come together and celebrate while honoring Shabbat — a weekly holiday where Orthodox Jews traditionally abstain from work and using electricity. The holiday starts Friday

evening and ends Saturday evening.

“It’s one of the few times of the year that our whole community comes together,” College sophomore and OCP Social Chair Jeremy Schechter said. “Eating is a huge part of our community, and as Sabbath observers, we wouldn’t want people to feel like they are missing out on the Fling experience or the

Shabbat dinner.”

The feast brought Fling revelry to a traditional Shabbat dinner — this year’s feast was carnival-themed, with streamers and popcorn centerpieces.

Foreign students debate applying for financial aid Int’l students do not get need-blind admissions KELLY HEINZERLING Staff Reporter

When Engineering junior Dhruv Agarwal applied to Penn, he thought for a long time if he should apply for financial aid.

Unlike students from the United States, Canada or Mexico, Agarwal, who was born and raised in India, knew that this decision would likely impact whether or not he would be admitted to Penn.

Agarwal said he ultimately decided not to apply for financial aid because he thought it would lower his chances of getting in.

Penn has a need-blind policy for admissions, but it only applies

not allowed to use technology during the event.

Wit hout m ic r ophone s, Simply Chaos — ­ a student standup comedy group — shouted out their jokes, keeping the atmosphere cheerful and relaxed.

Members said the chance to disconnect is one of the best aspects of Shabbat in general.

“We are able to enjoy people’s company and have fun while observing Shabbat customs,” Schechter said.

The event is open to everyone, no matter how strictly they observe Shabbat.

Jessica Griff, a College freshman who helped organize the event, considered the Feast

to domestic and transfer applicants.

Of the eight Ivy League institutions, four schools — Penn, Brown, Columbia and Dartmouth — do not apply the need-blind policy to international students, meaning that they take into consideration the applicant’s ability to pay for school when deciding admission.

According to Dean of Admissions Eric Furda, offering the need-blind policy to international students will lower U.S. applicants’ chances of receiving aid.

“They’re going to compete for the financial dollars that we have,” he said.

Agarwal, who is president of the Assembly of International Students, said most international students fear being rejected for

just one part of her Fling experience.

“I attended the Fling concert and the Fling Feast, ” she said. “People can have a typical Fling experience and come to the feast and feel no exclusion.”

The event is a communal effort: OCP members divided up responsibilities to create decorations, organize catering, curate entertainment and organize giveaways.

“I love to watch so many people come together with all of their talents to make an amazing event,” said Rebecca Slochowsky, a College senior and former OCP co-chair.

“It’s amazing to see how committed people are to making the event special,” she said.

requesting too much aid and often decide against applying for it or against applying to an American institution altogether.

“A lot of students back in their home countries can get tuition paid by the state,” Agarwal said.

According to Classbase, an online education database, students attending public universities in India pay approximately $50 each year. In contrast, attending Penn is said to cost close to $70,000 a year without financial aid.

There are some international students who have no choice but to apply for financial aid, even if that means risking a lower chance at admission.

“We got an email that said if we don’t apply for financial aid we had better chances of getting

in,” College freshman and Iraqinative Abdullah Noaman said.

He still decided to apply for aid.

“I did understand that my chances would be lowered,” Noaman added.

After spending a year at Penn, Noaman does not regret his decision. “[International] students who want to apply to Penn should be highly encouraged to do so,” Noaman said. “Penn has been extremely generous to these people who are admitted, it’s kind of humbling how generous.”

There are some programs that make applying to Penn easier for international students who need financial aid.

Kerry O’Neil, a College freshman from Scotland, was admitted to Penn through the

Sutton Trust Programme, a five-year-old program the helps students who come from lowincome backgrounds in British public schools get into American universities.

“I definitely was [scared to apply to Penn] until I found out they were need-blind for my program,” O’Neil said. “If money is the only reason I couldn’t go somewhere, that would’ve been awful.”

But O’Neil knows that her experience is not shared by all international students.

“Penn may be losing out on people who would apply if it was need-blind, but don’t because they’re scared about the money situation,” O’Neil said. “It’s really sad especially at schools like Penn that have such a big

endowment.”

Furda said that although he would love for Penn to be needblind for international students, the University lacks the resources to do so.

“Penn is the largest undergraduate institution with a grant-based financial aid policy,” Furda said. “Being need-blind even for national-based students as well as Canada and Mexico, we’re in a rare group there.”

O’Neil said that, regardless of costs, she thinks Penn should better address the issues that international students often face when applying to Penn.

“In a lot of countries people are looking to America to get a good education and I don’t think [their nationalities] should be a barrier,” she said.

Phila. university presidents join for panel Gutmann wants to keep college grads in Phila.

MANLU LIU Contributing Reporter

Five Philadelphia university presidents gathered in one auditorium at the Barnes Foundation last Thursday to discuss how their institutions relate to the city.

Sponsored by media organization The Philadelphia Citizens, the discussion included Penn President Amy Gutmann and the presidents of Drexel University, Temple University, Community College of Philadelphia and Thomas Jefferson University.

It was the first time all these presidents came together in a public forum to discuss what the schools could do for Philadelphia, given that only 27.4 percent of the city’s residents have a bachelor’s degree and only 64 percent of graduates of

Penn President Amy Gutmann claimed that many people in Philadelphia are “being left out of the American Dream.”

Philadelphia-area universities stay in the city.

During the panel, all the presidents stressed the value of keeping college graduates in the city.

Gutmann asked audience members to raise their hands if they spent most of their lives

outside of Philadelphia. When nearly every hand went up in the room, Gutmann said “this happens because a lot of people feel like they’re being left out of the American Dream.”

The panel started off with a discussion of how universities can merge the local and global in a world of rising populism.

Donald Generals, president of the Community College of Philadelphia, mentioned the college’s English as a Second Language programs for international students.

“We are serving an international community in this area,” he said.

Other points of discussion included the city’s low high school graduation rates, health disparities between different Philadelphia neighborhoods and changes each university

has made to be more inclusive.

Stephen Klako, president of Jefferson University and CEO of Jefferson Health, said the school is changing its admissions process for medical school to become more holistic.

Klako said they hope to change the fact that only 4 percent of matriculating medical school students are African American males.

Ariel Pechter, manager of the office space where The Philadelphia Citizen works, said that Gutmann’s message of “looking at the things that [Philadelphia] is doing well and not looking at [Philadelphia] as a tier two city” resonated with her.

Executive Editor and CoExecutive Director of The Philadelphia Citizen Roxanne Patel Shepelavy helped organize the event.

She said she “hoped to get a little bit of back-and-forth about what universities should be doing to include the city around them and what cities should do to propel that work.”

Maddy Weber, who works at a communications firm that assists universities, said she appreciated the “feeling of positivity about Philadelphia despite that they opened with this dirge of figures that are really depressing.”

“It seems that [the presidents] are in a position to make change and that they are willing to work together, which is exciting,” Weber said.

Pester said she left the Zedd concert early due to the rain. She also attended some of the student performances in the Quadrangle but ended up going inside as a result of the weather. She said that although the rain put a damper on her experience, she still enjoyed her first Fling at Penn.

Greenough said he noticed the effort that both student groups and the University put into Flingrelated festivities.

“Penn spent a lot more money all around,” he said. “It’s a big deal here.”

College sophomore Rachel Pester had similar experiences at Duke University before coming to Penn. Like George Mason, Duke holds an event on the last day of classes — fittingly called Last Day of Classes, or LDOC. This year’s LDOC, to be held this Wednesday, will feature Canadian hip-hop artist Tory Lanez, Daya and American band Panama Wedding among other acts. Pester remembers watching hip-hop duo Rae Sremmurd and pop band Saint Motel last year.

The event at Duke is free, Pester said. She added that although the event only spans one day, she appreciated that she did

not have class or work to do afterwards.

College junior Ryan Berlin transferred from the University of Maryland and said Maryland also organizes a daylong festival with a concert.

Called Art Attack, the event will feature Grammy-Award winning rapper 2 Chainz this year. Berlin said when he was a freshman at Maryland, Jessie J headlined the Art Attack concert.

“The concert is a big deal because they usually get really good people,” Berlin said. “Better people than Penn gets for Fling.”

Like the events at George Mason and Duke, Art Attack spans just one day. Even though students celebrate during the weekend, all school-sanctioned events are limited to a single day.

My thanks to the haters THE CONVERSATION | The necessity of opinionated criticism

CXXXIII, NO. 53 133rd Year of Publication CARTER COUDRIET President DAN SPINELLI Executive Editor LUCIEN WANG Print Director ALEX GRAVES Digital Director ALESSANDRO VAN DEN BRINK Opinion Editor SYDNEY SCHAEDEL Senior News Editor WILL SNOW Senior Sports Editor CHRIS MURACCA Design Editor CAMILLE RAPAY Design Editor JULIA SCHORR Design Editor LUICY FERRY Design Editor VIBHA KANNAN Enterprise Editor GENEVIEVE GLATSKY News Editor TOM NOWLAN News Editor ALLY JOHNSON Assignments Editor COLE JACOBSON Sports Editor

I’ve only been a columnist for a year and am not graduating, but nonetheless feel that some reflection is in order. Bear with me.

Over the year, I’ve written about everything from the Chicago Cubs to selfsegregation at Penn. In the process, I’ve had the opportunity to work with some extremely passionate and talented people. While the experience has been rewarding in many ways, I think the most valuable part for me was meeting people who disagreed with me and were not afraid to say so. Whether via email, comments or a response column, people wrote about perceived shortcomings in my logic, argument and style throughout the year.

While such reaction is obviously natural, I found that it was still hard to receive criticism, especially when I never got the opportunity for a last word.

Rarely in our lives do we receive such direct expressions of disapproval, in part

because we tend to surround ourselves with people who are unlikely to do so.

Even in our social, academic and professional interactions, we tend to be careful about such forms of speech lest we offend or hurt someone’s feelings. However, the anonymous nature of the internet means that people are less concerned about such matters.

One email sent from an anonymous address in response to an article I wrote on Donald Trump was titled “Poor Writing” and criticized my “vapid understanding of literature.”

I was told: “Get your facts straight. Read and study more before you write.”

Yikes. Tell me what you really think. This was on the more constructive side as far as criticism goes. Other fellow columnists, especially those whose works were picked up by bigger outlets, have sometimes faced racist and sexist comments.

Obviously, the latter holds little practical value.

But that is precisely our job — to make people understand. This is perhaps the most difficult thing in life, to make people see things from perspectives that they are not familiar with. In order to do that, we should strive for empathy by considering all

feedback was unavoidable.

Rationally, I understood this. However, I still found it difficult to receive such criticism, and found myself thinking about receiving such responses even before I had started writing. On some occasions, I decided not to write about certain

issues or I changed the tone of my argument in order to avoid controversy. This was something that I didn’t expect at all before the year.

I titled my column “The Conversation” because I wanted to start discussions about the things I wrote on.

I was surprised to find myself afraid of exactly that.

Intellectual courage, like all courage, is easier talked about than attained in action.

However, I believe that this consideration was ultimately beneficial and even necessary. The ultimate purpose of all published writing is social — reading is an inherently interactive act. If I wanted to avoid criticism of all kinds, I would stick to writing in a diary. I’m sure that there are people who believe that I should do just that. Yet, it is precisely because of those dissenters — at least those who genuinely disagree on the issues — that opinionated writing is necessary and possible.

JAMES LEE So to all who read and wrote, who engaged in this conversation with me, thank you. I am a stronger thinker and writer because of all of you. Even if we did not end up changing each other’s opinions, the ones we hold are more sound and valuable because they have encountered opposing ones.

My genuine thanks to the haters — see you next semester.

However, it is important to distinguish between such attacks and actual constructive criticism. It is much easier for us to dismiss all negative feedback as motivated by such irrational reasons, or by a lack of un-

On April 29, as part of the People’s Climate Movement, over 100,000 people will gather to march in Washington D.C. to demonstrate widespread and overwhelming support for immediate and drastic climate action. Participants will hail from across the country and around the world, traveling hundreds or thousands of miles to participate in this historic march. To end the march, this incredible mass of people will surround the White House and call on our president and government to take action now.

But what are these people really fighting for? What is motivating so many people to join this movement for climate action and justice?

Spoiler alert: It’s probably not just to save the polar bears.

Global climate change is already occurring at an unprecedented rate and is caused primarily by human activity; especially due to our unrelenting burning of

fossil fuels. Ice caps in both the North and South Poles are melting faster than ever before, and winter sea ice levels in the Arctic hit record lows almost every year.

Sea level has risen eight inches since 1880, but is expected to rise another two to seven feet by the end of the century without extreme action. Due to rising ocean temperatures and ocean acidification resulting from increased carbon in the atmosphere, over 12 percent of Earth’s coral reefs have disappeared in just the past year. Extreme weather will only get more extreme, with droughts becoming longer and harsher and storms increasing in strength and destructive force. That is unfortunate for the Earth, but so what? Why does that matter to me, a human? I should be fine, right?

Wrong.

In fact, climate change poses a catastrophic threat to humanity, both presently and in the future. Cli-

mate change does and will cause significant human death around the world.

166,000 people die each year from climate change related events. This rate will only increase, as cli-

ers committed suicide per day. In China, 4,400 people die every day from causes related to air pollution.

Climate change kills more people per year than war, murder and traffic accidents

We can no longer stand idly by while our reckless climate actions lead to the death and displacement of so many. We can no longer ignore the science and no longer downplay the catastrophic potential future impacts.” mate change is expected to cause 250,000 more deaths per year between 2030 and 2050. In the 2016 drought in India, which was influenced and strengthened greatly by climate change, nine farm-

combined. Climate change is responsible for far more deaths per year than terrorism.

Furthermore, climate change does and will displace a significant portion

of the human population around the world. The island nation of Kiribati will be completely underwater in 50 years, forcing each citizen there to find a new home. The United Nations estimates that there are currently around 25 million climate refugees worldwide, a number that is expected to double within five years.

The Red Cross estimates that there will be as many as 1 billion climate refugees by 2050. This will cause extreme strain on every world economy and create unprecedented and widespread poverty.

Marginalized communities and future generations will bear the brunt of this damage, but even we who live in the United States are not safe from the effects of global climate change. New Orleans, Los Angeles and New York City are all expected to be mostly or fully underwater by 2100. Where will these millions of displaced people go?

Immediate climate action is not just necessary to help the climate. Immediate climate action is necessary to help the people that climate change affects. We can no longer stand idly by while our reckless climate actions lead to the death and displacement of so many.

We can no longer ignore the science and no longer downplay the catastrophic potential future impacts. This is the message of the 100,000 plus people that will convene in Washington D.C. on April 29. Their message is clear. Immediate and drastic climate action is necessary.

Will you join us?

We will march together for justice. We will march together for our Earth. We will march together for our future. At the end of the day, it’s not about saving the polar bears. It’s about saving humanity.

REAL TALK | Why we can’t rely on the administration to reform campus culture A recent University task force on campus culture and sexual assault finally released a list of recommendations on Wednesday, but with one important issue seemingly excluded: sexual assault. Given that it was originally formed in response to the OZ email — that was accused of propagating rape culture on campus — one might have guessed that the task force would have addressed, or at the very least mentioned, the pervasive problem of sexual violence. Instead the primary focus was on creating a system to register off-campus groups with the University and thereby ensure that they follow Penn’s anti‐hazing and alcohol policies.

Ultimately the recommendations seem indicative of a university that is more concerned with regulating off-campus groups than combatting the sexism that has become associated with these groups. This lack of focus on the issue of misogyny is likely disappointing to many, especially since the task force was charged with “Fostering a campus climate free of sexual harassment, sexual violence, alcohol and other substance

abuse … ” But perhaps the lesson here is not that the administration isn’t doing enough to change campus culture but rather that it shouldn’t be relied on to do so in the first place. It was only because of the initiative of a few students that the OZ email became a campus-wide issue. And I’d argue that for any attempt at reforming campus culture to be successful it has to be similarly student-driven.

There is, of course, nothing misguided about calling on the administration to hold those who commit sexual assault accountable and support survivors — history has shown the tragedy that ensues if it fails to do so.

But when it comes to combatting the underlying culture of misogyny that generates assaults, there’s only so much that a top-down approach can accomplish.

When the administration gets involved in tackling a campus issue, its presence can often be seen as overbearing.

Administrators view problems as stemming from a lack of oversight and therefore believe that the solution is to expand University purview. But just as the strict drinking poli-

cies in campus dorms motivate freshmen to seek out off-campus parties, so too will increased regulations only enhance the incentive to skirt University supervision.

Many of the recommendations put forth by the task force seem designed to breach the divide between what constitutes on- and off-campus and thereby extend the University’s influ-

why any off-campus group would voluntarily subject their conduct to outside supervision, but we can easily envision the backlash that would ensue if they were made to do so.

Not only would these recommendations, if implemented, be widely unpopular it’s also unclear how effective they would be in deterring sexual assault.

Holding off-campus frater-

Ultimately the recommendations seem indicative of a university that is more concerned with regulating unaffiliated fraternities than combatting the sexism that has become associated with these groups.” ence. They include creating an “Identified Off-Campus Group” category for organizations like OZ and coordinating with landlords to better regulate their behavior. It’s hard to imagine

nities to on-campus standards would only alleviate the issue if they were the sole perpetrator. The underlying issue is not simply the copious amounts of drinking or the unsanctioned par-

ties but rather a culture that made the OZ email seem acceptable.

Tackling this issue requires an approach grounded more in student action than paternalism. It demands a conscious effort by every individual to own up to the ways in which they contribute to the overall culture.

I’m sure there are many students, even those involved in Greek life, who would admit that there are sexist aspects to the average frat party. But for those enveloped in these institutions, it’s easy to envision oneself as a passive actor, riding the tide but not starting the wave.

In order for fraternities to stay competitive and provide an attractive atmosphere for recruits — the thinking goes — they need to enact a ratio at their parties. And in order for freshman boys to enter those parties they need to use their female friends like currency, a payment for the toll.

We can tell ourselves that these behaviors don’t define us, that they’re just a product of the status quo. But the bottom line is that these actions, whether we intend them to or not, feed into the

CAMERON DICHTER same culture that produced the OZ email. They should not be overlooked.

As far as the administration is concerned the most useful approach would be facilitating change rather than trying to force it. Two of the task force’s recommendations — the creation of Peer Mediation Programs and a Chief Diversity Officer — seem like prime examples of the role the administration can play in influencing campus culture.

It’s not wrong to expect the administration to assist in reforming our campus climate. But true change will require students to be at the helm.

Furda not sure if travel ban will deter foreign applicants U.S. universities saw decrease in int’l applicants BRIAN ZHONG Staff Reporter

Penn administrators and alumni said it might be premature to make conclusions of the “Trump effect” on applications from international students.

A recent article from The New York Times cited a report by the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers that found nearly 40 percent of American universities have seen a decrease in international applications since Trump’s travel ban — an executive order prohibiting nationals of six Muslim-majority countries from entering the United States.

The study also found that 35

President Donald Trump’s executive order barring nationals from six Muslim-majority countries may limit international student applications.

percent of colleges have observed an increase in international applications, while 26 percent have witnessed no change at all.

Penn saw a 10 percent increase in the number of international

applications for the class of 2021.

Dean of Admissions Eric Furda said he “[doesn’t] see how the election in November is a cause for impact in applications this year.”

However, he added that while

this year’s application numbers have not been affected, the number of international students who choose to enroll this year and the applicant totals for future years could decrease because of Trump’s executive order.

1986 Wharton graduate Laurie Kopp Weingarten, co-founder and CEO of One-Stop College Counseling, recalled a conversation her colleague had with an international student who decided to attend a Canadian college because of Trump’s policies.

“A girl was deciding between two U.S. colleges and two Canadian colleges and she went to see the counselor today and said, ‘My parents want to me to go to one of the Canadian schools because it’s safer,’” Weingarten said. “The counselor asked, ‘What do you mean by safer?’ and she said, ‘Because of

Trump.’”

Weingarten said certain Canadian universities have witnessed an increase in applications, which could indicate a possible decrease applications to American colleges.

“McGill [University] applications are way up, and they have not given everyone decisions yet,” Weingarten said. “They’ve been saying since the day after Trump won, they’re getting a ton of inquiries, starting literally from Election Day, about coming to school in Canada.”

However, Weingarten also said the Times article was “sensational” in the way it reported the findings of the AACRAO study.

She said the travel ban “probably has had an effect” on applications from international students, but believes the Times’ headline — “Amid ‘Trump Effect’ Fear, 40% of

Colleges See Dip in Foreign Applicants” — is an overstatement.

In her view, more data is required to actually understand the implications of the “Trump Effect.”

Furda agreed, adding that it’s too early to jump to a conclusion. As of now there is not enough data to support a cause and effect relationship between application statistics and Trump’s policies.

“People like causality. It makes them feel comfortable. There’s a reason they can rationalize it, react to it and adjust to it,” he said.

“The year before Malia Obama decided to defer a year or take a gap year, Penn saw a spike in the number of students who requested a gap year,” Furda said. “If that had happened the year Malia Obama did a gap year, everyone would say there’s a ‘Malia Obama Gap Year Effect.’”

Need some ‘easy money?’ Participate in a psychology study

The Wharton Behavioral Lab offers $10 per study LEXI LIEBERMAN Staff Reporter

Ma ny st udents at Pen n choose to become lab rats — in exchange for money or course credits.

Penn has two main data collection services that students can participate in to help researchers: Sona Systems and the Wharton Behavioral Laboratory. Students often receive course credits or money for their efforts.

Sona Systems is typically

used by psychology researchers and most of the students who participate in the Sona experiments are students enrolled in psychology classes.

Wharton freshman Linda Zhang said she has participated in psychology experiments through Sona, but spends much more time participating in research experiments for the WBL. According to the WBL website, the lab “provides a variety of services that support data collection for behavioral research on business-related topics.

“I do the experiments because not only do you get paid,

but it feels like you’re contributing to future research and it’s helping out the faculty in that way,” she said.

Zhang said she appreciates how easy it is to participate in research at Penn through WBL. “I’ve done it like 10 times over my freshman year,” she said. “You can earn easy money — like if you have an hour in between classes, that’s usually what I do. If I have an hour break, I will just sign up for an experiment.”

The WBL writes that students can typically earn $10 for participating in a single experiment, but may earn more “for

studies in which payment depends on performance in some way.”

Zhang said she has made about $100 this year and plans to earn more in the coming years.

College freshman Wendy Yang took an introductory psychology course last semester and participated in three Sona experiments to fulfill the course requirements.

She recalled that in one of the experiments which took about an hour to complete, she had to distinguish between different language tones. She wore headphones and was in

a laboratory, which she said made her feel more involved in the research.

“I also fulfilled some of the credits by participating in online surveys,” she said. “I did this survey online about food and another one on decisionmaking that was cool.”

College freshman Gabrielle Fink participated in research through Sona, not for a psychology class, but for extra credit in a linguistics class.

Fink said it is a pretty straightforward process.

“Some were online, some were in a lab,” she said. “Each one was worth a different

number of points, and I did online surveys.”

Fink was happy to participate in the research, especially since it allowed her to receive extra credit in her course. However, she wished she participated in a lab experiment as opposed to one online.

“I enjoyed it, but I think it would have been more interesting if I had chosen to go to one in a lab because the online ones were very fast and very surface-level. But I heard from other people that some of the ones in labs were very interesting, but they also take a lot more time.”

Why the switch from heat to AC in dorms takes so long Temperature minimums are one of many factors KELLY HEINZERLING Staff Reporter

As temperatures hit 80 degrees and students start switching out their heavy jackets for jean shorts, residents in the Quadrangle have been left sweltering in dorm rooms without air conditioning.

“The aggressively heated Quad makes it impossible to live, study or generally function as a human being,” College freshman and Quad resident Ila Sethi said.

Every year, a team of administrators from Residential Services collaborate on which day they plan on turning off the heat and turning on the AC. Quad Building Manager Damesa Bennett said this discussion

began mid-March this year when the team began tracking the weather trajectory of the spring season.

The team shut off the heat in all buildings last Monday, April 17. For the buildings that have AC — all 13 Penn residential buildings, except Kings Court English College House, Gregory College House and Du Bois College House — the process of transitioning to AC began last Wednesday, April 19, a date that is typical for Residential Services, Bennett said.

She added that all buildings will have AC by this Wednesday, April 26, though larger buildings such as the Quad and the high rises should expect AC a little later than smaller ones such as Stouffer College House.

The impending arrival of AC has given Quad residents something to celebrate.

“I’m excited that AC is coming to the Quad,” Engineering freshman Colleen Campbell said. “Now I can sleep again.”

To turn on the AC, the heating must be fully off, the outside temperature must be 75 or above for three consecutive days and the nighttime temperature must remain moderate in long term forecast predictions. Residential Services needs to be sure of weather patterns before switching off the heating because the decision to do so cannot be reversed.

“We don’t have the ability to [switch back and forth multiple times],” Bennett said. “Once we make that switch from one to the other, that’s it for the season.”

This decision involves all 13 Penn residential buildings run by Penn’s two pipe heating system, not just the Quad. All of Penn’s residential buildings operate as a

unit on the same system, and the decision to switch to AC applies to all dorms.

“We’ve made the decision [to turn on AC] as early as the 10th of April and as late as the 2nd of May,” Business Services’ Director of Communications and External Relations Barbara LeaKruger said. “It really depends

on if we’re having a warm spring or a cold spring.”

Residential Services has been gradually adding AC into all dorms since the late ‘90s. Hill College House is the latest dorm to receive such an upgrade, and the building will now have AC when it reopens in the fall. The other three dorms without AC

will have to go through intensive renovation to install it, since the buildings were built before AC was created.

“We have been considering air conditioning when we’re redoing our buildings,” Lea-Kruger said.

“In 2002, AC was added to the Quad … the high rises had AC added in the mid-2000s.”

Rookie, two seniors lead Penn to pre-Relays success TRACK & FIELD | 17 new

Many of the usual suspects put up big days yet again, including junior Taylor McCorkle and senior Clarissa Whiting on the women’s side and senior Noah Kennedy-White and freshman Sean Clarke for the men.

Without further ado, here are the three biggest stars of the weekend: Isis Trotman The freshman thrower and sophomore Rachel Lee Wilson have been trading the all-time school record all year, and Trotman just stepped back into the lead. After Wilson overtook Trotman with a 55.90-meter throw a week ago, Trotman flung the hammer a full meter further to push the record to 56.96. Meanwhile, her discus throw, while not a school record, was enough to put her at seventh place in the meet.

Trotman is either the program’s record-holder or runner-up in both the hammer and discus — as a freshman. Her success this early

top-10 records were made

THEODOROS PAPAZEKOS Sports Reporter

Spring Fling has a very different meaning for freshman Isis Trotman.

For most Penn students, Fling weekend is a chance to forget about school, go to concerts and party.

For Trotman, it was an opportunity to rewrite the record book.

Led by Trotman’s record breaking hammer throw, Penn track and field shined in the final tune-up before Penn Relays.

The Quakers split up this weekend; with the majority of the team going to Princeton for the Larry Ellis Invitational, the sprinters turned south to the Virginia Challenge in Charlottesville, Va. Between the two meets, the Quakers set 17 new top-10 records, continuing their recent success.

ZACH SHELDON | SPORTS PHOTO EDITOR

One of Penn track and field’s stars of the weekend was senior Ashley Montgomery, who won the Larry Ellis Invitational 1,500m race with a time of 4:17.95 — breaking her own program record in the process.

in her career gives her one of the brightest futures of any Penn athlete. If her battles with Wilson at the top continue, Trotman will have to continue improving to maintain her grip on the record.

Ashley Montgomery The senior distance runner improved her own program record in the 1,500-meter with a meet winning time of 4:17.95. Montgomery is now nearly three seconds faster

than the previous record holder, Stacy Kim. The time now places her 14th in the NCAA East region.

Montgomery’s dominance of the event bodes well for her entering championship season.

Montgomery also holds the 5000m record, set last year. She is one of the likeliest of Penn athletes to have success at the conference and regional level this post-season.

Chris Hatler Hatler ran a personal best 1:48.88 in the 800m, beating his closest collegiate competitor by about four seconds. The senior’s effort was the fifth best 800 time in school history, and only .47 seconds behind the fourth-place mark.

Hatler’s time is 31st in the NCAA East region this year. His run is all the more impressive considering his usual event, the 1,500m is almost twice the length. The owner of the second fastest 1,500m time is school history, Hatler is another prime candidate for success in the next few weeks.

For the team as a whole, last weekend was a productive one.

The Quakers won’t have too much time to rest however, as the biggest home meet of the year, the Penn Relays, starts this Thursday.

Rowing squads see mixed results in trio of weekend regattas with the Eastern Sprints and IRAs coming up, two straight weeks of underperforming is very concerning.

The Second Varsity 8 had an even worse day, finishing third behind Harvard and Navy. Considering the Quakers were on home water, this third-place finish is surprising and unacceptable.

A superior Harvard team bested second-place Navy by seven seconds and Penn by 16 seconds.

But despite two straight weeks of disappointment, Penn’s future is bright with a young squad that hopes to make waves — no pun intended — for years to come.

On the heavyweight Varsity 8, five out of eight rowers are freshmen, and only senior Elliot Bok will be graduating. Penn does have to replace senior coxswain Lauren Hochman, but junior Sabrina Stanich is a strong candidate to take over for Hochman next year. In essence, next year’s squad will be many of the same faces with just

Women placed highest of all Ivies at Clemson MARC MARGOLIS Sports Reporter

While the majority of Penn students were busting out new fling tanks and party hopping, Penn rowing had a busy weekend in a different way — but with mixed results.

After last week’s frustrating second-place finish against Yale, the heavyweight crew was eager to welcome Harvard and Navy to the Schuylkill River for the Adams Cup. Unfortunately for Penn, it once again failed to take first place in the Varsity 8 and Second Varsity 8. Last week the Varsity 8 boat was demolished by Yale by 10 seconds.

This week, the youthful Varsity 8 boat lost to Harvard by eight seconds.

Fortunately for Penn, it sneaked by a weak Navy team. However,

more experience, a scary realization for future Ivy League foes.

The lightweight men’s rowing team, also on the Schuylkill, faced similar woes coming up short against Princeton in the WoodHammond Cup. Penn’s Ivy League arch nemesis swept all the races on the day.

The lightweight Quakers narrowly lost to Princeton by a little over one second in the varsity 8 race. However, Princeton took care of business more comfortably in the four other races. Still, Penn bested Georgetown in three of the four races, with Georgetown not competing in the 4th Varsity 8 race.

Unlike their heavyweight counterparts, next year will see a lot of turnover for the lightweights, with four seniors graduating from the top boat. Sophomore Julia Hansen is a strong candidate to take over the void left by senior coxswain Genny Liebes. However, the battle for the other rowing positions will

Though Penn women’s rowing placed 15th of 21 teams at Clemson, the Quakers did beat out all of the other Ivy teams in competition.

does not capture the whole picture.

Despite what appears to be a weak performance, the Quakers still have plenty to take pride in from their performance.

Penn finished highest among the Ivy League teams present, with Columbia coming in 16th and Cornell coming in last. Furthermore, after a rough Saturday, the Varsity 8 boat made it to the B final on Sunday morning. The second varsity 8 merely overtook home

Clemson in the C final losing by a mere .27 seconds.

Looking ahead to next year, women’s crew looks to be on the rise. “It’s an entire group of people, particularly the freshmen and sophomores who are ready to step up,� Ng said. “That generally means doing a better job in practice, staying more consistent, and not waiting for race day to do their very best.�

lot of positives from it and a lot of improvements from last year’s Ivy League Championship.�

The roster only spor ted two seniors, Matt Kern and Dane Walton, so the future of the team belongs to young, ha rd-work ing players li ke Kaloustian. With performances like this, even considering the uncertainty regarding whether interim coach Michael Blodgett chooses to return or not, the team’s future is undoubtedly in good hands. “Our team can go and really play courses well, it’s just going to be about how well we can minimize our mistakes in the years going forward,� Kaloustian said. “I think we have a really good shot to perform well and win some golf tournaments.�

The narrative was awfully similar for Penn women’s golf, which also came up short of

championship glory but also rose two spots from its performance at the same tournament a year ago, finishing in fourth place this time around.

But where the story differs for the female Quakers is that their superstar was no young blood. Senior Erin Lo dominated the field in her last ever Ivy League Championships, going +11 over the three-day tournament en route to finishing sixth place individually, resulting in second team AllIvy honors.

Though Lo will unquestionably be a tough loss, there are positive signs for the future of the women’s program. Three of the Quakers’ top five scorers will return next season, including 18th-place finisher and freshman Christina Park, giving the Red and Blue positive signs that both of its teams are heading in the right direction entering the offseason.

would prove to be all Penn needed on the day. Kleiman pitched an impressive complete game shutout, and the Quakers’ Thomas Pellis blasted a three-run home run to add some insurance on a 4-0 victory.

The win was the Red and Blue’s 20th of the season, marking the third time in four seasons under Yurkow that the Quakers have reached that mark.

After that win, all heads turned to the series finale, with Cornell desperately looking to even the series while the Quakers yearned to extend their lead atop the standings. A first inning home run for Cornell off of Penn’s Mike Reitcheck gave them an early 1-0 lead, a lead that would last only two innings. Always Penn’s go-to man, Graul launched a home run of his own in the third inning, scoring two runs and reclaiming the lead 2-1. While Cornell tied the game in the bottom of the third, Reitcheck settled in after that and

threw three scoreless innings, sending the game into the seventh with the score tied 2-2. With two outs in the seventh and a man on third, up stepped sophomore Sean Phelan for possibly the biggest at-bat of the weekend.

The Devon, Pa. native came through in a big way, knocking an opposite field double to give the Quakers a 3-2 lead they would never relinquish. When Cornell threatened to score in the bottom half of the seventh, it was Penn’s junior closer Billy Lescher who came on and shut the door on any semblance of a Big Red comeback.

The wins kept the Quakers into sole possession of first place, two games ahead of Columbia (14-21, 9-7). This makes this upcoming weekend’s series with Lions vital — split the series with two wins out of four, and the division title is theirs.

And with a performance like this weekend’s, there are not many who would bet against them.

be tightly contested.

Lastly, the women’s rowing team travelled down south for the Clemson Invitational. If the Quakers were expecting friendly southern hospitality, though, they got a rude awakening. This twoday regatta was a stark reminder that they still have a long way to go.

In the Saturday races, none of Penn’s boats finished in the top half of its heat. “We came out very excited to race and committed some errors of aggression,� coach Wesley Ng said.

The afternoon proved a little kinder for the Quakers with the best performance coming from the Second Varsity 4 boat. After coming in fourth out of seven boats in their morning heat, the boat rebounded and came in third in the second round. “I was encouraged by our resiliency and our ability to bounce back,� Ng said. “There was a good impetus on team unity and supporting one another.�

When it was all said and done, women’s crew finished 15th out of 21 in total points. This, however,

This more relaxed style of play resulted in the Red and Blue posting a 295 on the day, moving them up to fifth place — a far better result than last year’s seventh place finish.

On the whole, Kaloustian led the way for the Quakers, finishing in a tie for eighth with a 75-72-75 score line. Just behind him in a tie for 10th place was junior Amay Poria, and sophomore Josh Goldenberg rounded out Penn’s top three, finishing tied for 23rd.

that shaky first inning, was practically untouchable, pitching a gem in its own right. Unfortunately for Bleday and the Red and Blue, Cornell pitcher Justin Lewis was even more dominant — turning in a Cousins-esque performance by holding the Quakers to four hits and no runs. In the end, the two first-inning runs for Cornell were enough to earn a tight 2-0 victory and knot the series at 1-1 heading into Sunday.

The offensive hangover seemed to carry into Sunday’s contest at first, with Penn’s junior Gabe Kleiman and Cornell’s Tommy Morris both throwing three scoreless frames to start the game. Offensive production by Tim Graul in the fourth inning finally snapped the 13-inning scoreless streak, with the senior’s double setting up a sacrifice fly to put the Quakers up 1-0. Just as in game one, this

Women’s tennis pulls off upset to finish season

Quakers seal fourth-place finish in the Ivy League MOSES NSEREKO Associate Sports Editor

With a top-half finish in the Ivy League on the line, Penn women’s tennis rounded out its season on top.

When freshman Sarah Dreyfuss clinched a 4-3 win on Harvard’s court four for Penn, she not only clinched a match, but a close to an impressive season.

Sunday’s match following the previous day’s loss at Dartmouth could be considered the height of the season for Penn (11-9, 4-3 Ivy); with Dreyfuss’ win, Penn toppled Ivy champions No. 49 Harvard (17-8, 5-2 Ivy) in a weekend where the Quakers faced the season’s eventual Ivy co-champions, Harvard and Dartmouth.

The Quakers began what was arguably their toughest road weekend of the season against No. 44 Dartmouth. After

Penn women’s tennis split its final weekend of the season against Dartmouth and Harvard, but the Quakers’ sophomore Marta Kowalska swept her weekend with a pair of straight-set wins.

dropping the doubles point to the Big Green, Penn began an epic series of singles contests. After two routine, straight-set losses, the Quakers were down 3-0 on the brink of defeat. Still, the Red and Blue would not quit.

Penn found life in No. 1 and No. 6 singles, as sophomore Marta Kowalska and Kana Daniel completed their straight set wins, leaving two hard-fought matches to be played. No. 105 Daniel’s win marked her 67th

singles win as a Quaker, and was her last singles victory for Penn as she closed out her career this weekend.

Dreyfuss, facing match point at 5-4, battled back against Dartmouth’s Racquel Lyn to secure a

7-5 third set and level the tie. Unfortunately, an even tighter battle including No. 2 Ria Vaidya went the way of the Big Green and the Quakers fell short of a remarkable comeback.

Still, Penn would not let that result deter them.

The very next day found the Red and Blue in Cambridge facing off against the Crimson in a match that would determine the allocation of the Ivy title. Similar to Saturday’s match, the Quakers would once again drop the doubles point to their opponents, leaving Penn behind 1-0 at the start of the tie.

However, Penn started off the singles matches with the momentum, taking the first two matches in straight sets courtesy of Kowalska and junior Lina Qostal.

However, with a 2-1 lead, the match would continue to swing as each result came in. A 6-3, 6-3 loss by Vaidya would pull the tie level once more, before freshman No. 3 Ashley Zhu won a 10-8 tiebreak en route to a straight-sets

win over the Crimson’s Lexi Milunovich. After a tight three-set loss from Daniel, the tie, level at 3-3, would come down to Dreyfuss.

The Miami native had already proven her grit throughout the season, highlighted by her comeback win the previous day against Dartmouth. In her fifth set of tennis in three days, the freshman pulled out another impressive set of tennis, clinching a must-win 9-7 tiebreak. In the final set of the Quakers’ season, Dreyfuss jumped out to a 4-2 lead, before cruising to a 3-6, 7-6(7), 6-3 victory to clinch the fourth spot in the Ivy standings for the Red and Blue.

While the Quakers head into the offseason, the incredible talents of Daniel and doubles powerhouse Luba Vazehnina depart the team as they approach their graduation. And though the Red and Blue are hindered by their losses, a win like this one leaves a legacy of their strength as players and as competitors.

Penn Athletics Weekend MVP: Softball Senior Leah Allen Outfielder breaks another record against Cornell LAINE HIGGINS Associate Sports Editor

With just four games left of the 2017 softball season, senior right fielder Leah Allen is doing all she can to cement her legacy as one of the greatest players to ever grace Penn Park.

Heading into the weekend, Allen already held program records for stolen bases (with 58) and home runs (with 29), and was second in program history in hits and triples, with 179 and 9, respectively. In the Quakers’ (18-8, 8-8 Ivy) pair of doubleheaders against Cornell, Allen smashed three home runs to bring her season stat line to eight and extend her school record to 32, another Penn record.

And if all of those accolades

Sophomore Simon Mathias led the attack, scoring two of his game-high four goals to steadily build the lead over Dartmouth (2-10, 0-5). Chris Santangelo also continued his dominant face-off play, winning 13 of 15 opportunities a week after his career-best performance against Harvard.

“It was huge for Chris Santangelo to win face-offs again. He’s been very, very good there, very clean,” head coach Mike Murphy said. “He’s been working on the fundamentals of it all year. For him, the issue tends to be that he needs to be technically sound.

He’s been much more disciplined about it.”

Penn’s rejuvenated attack depends heavily on transition play and strong goalkeeping, a recipe which more than often yields wins for the inconsistent Quakers.

Saturday’s match also represented more than a chance to compete for the Ivy title. It was the seniors’ last game on Franklin Field, and the graduating class was feted during pregame celebrations.

“It’s all gone so fast. I’m so grateful to play in a place that has so much history like Franklin Field,” senior captain Kevin Gayhardt said. “I’ve been through so much with the other senior guys at this point and it felt really good to get the win. There was a lot of blood, sweat and tears put out onto this field, so to leave it with a win means a lot to me.”

Gayhardt and his teammates cannot afford to grow too sentimental, as there still is more work to be done in the season. Having clinched the No. 4 seed in the Ivy tournament, the Quakers face

weren’t enough, the lefty batter broke yet another Red and Blue record during Penn’s first game against the Big Red (10-24-1, 4-12), this time for career RBI. In the top of the seventh inning, Allen launched a rocket past the fence to give the Quakers a 5-3 advantage over Cornell and notch her 124th career RBI. Penn would go on to score three more runs to take the first meeting 8-3.

In the second game of the day, the Big Red got the best of the Quakers despite another home run and a trio of RBI from Allen. After setting a new program record in the first game of the day, the Woodbine, Md., native brought her career mark to 127.

Despite the split on Saturday, Penn was able to pull off two wins in their final games against Cor nell and bring their Ivy record to 0.500. In the first match up of the day,

the Quakers only needed five innings to shut down their opponents. While the game would be scoreless until the fourth inning, Penn scored five in the bottom of the fourth and two more in the fifth to capture an 8-0 win.

Penn kept its bats hot in the weekend finale, beating the Big Red 7-3 with just six hits. The performance was a marked improvement from last weekend’s showing against Pr inceton when the Red and Blue left 25 runners on base in four games.

Although the Quakers are no longer in contention for an Ivy title this season after last weekend’s quartet of losses to Princeton, Allen has continued to provide Penn with an offensive spark. Her fiery presence at bat over the weekend – and over the course of her career wearing the Red and Blue – is why she’s earned the title of Weekend MVP.

Yale, a team that has given them fits over the past two years.

And, with an overall record of 6-5 and just one signature nonconference win to its name, Penn men’s lacrosse will not have a shot at a national title unless it wins the upcoming tournament and receives the conference’s automatic bid for the NCAA Tournament.

Defeating the Ivy League’s worst team while bolstered by the nostalgia of Senior Day is not a proper test of Penn’s abilities. The Red and Blue will show their true colors in the coming weeks.

Meanwhile, over in Cambridge, the Quakers’ female counterparts were just as desperate for a win, as a chance to stay alive for the Ivy League regular season championship was on the line.

Penn women’s lacrosse entered Saturday’s match against Harvard looking to extend its five-game win streak, a run that has propelled them to the top of the conference table and into the chase for the Ivy title. The Quakers’ 13-10 victory, along with No. 11 Cornell’s overtime loss to No. 7 Princeton, left No. 10 Penn in a three-team tie for first place.

The crucial win over the Crimson did not come easily, providing the Quakers (12-2, 5-1) their greatest test since their loss to undefeated behemoth Maryland, the overwhelming favorites to win the NCAA national championship.

Penn, perhaps still trying to stretch its legs after a long bus ride to Cambridge, faced an early deficit after senior Marisa Romeo, ranked 15th in the country in goals per game, and her compatriots raced out to a 4-0 lead. Senior goalie Britt Brown, whose elite save percentage of

55.8 is the second-best in Division I lacrosse, had difficulty stopping Harvard’s blistering shots.

Penn, however, was able to clamp down and, after overcoming a 5-1 deficit, closed the first half with a four-goal run to enter halftime tied. The Quakers, unlike Harvard (8-6, 4-2), took advantage of their free-position opportunities, netting four out of seven chances in the first half as opposed to the Crimson’s dismal 25 percent conversion rate. The second half saw more of the same, as Penn racked up seven free-position goals, a season high.

Another key to Penn’s rally was the ability of the defense to find another gear. After recovering only four ground balls in the first half, the Quakers scooped up 10 in the second half, allowing them to play in transition. Brown played her usual lockdown brand of goalkeeping and, along with the consistently stellar play of junior Alex Condon, Penn ballooned the score to an insurmountable 11-6.

Despite Harvard’s late attempts at a comeback, two scores from senior Emily Rodgers-Healion sealed the victory with under five minutes to go.

With the win, Penn ensured that it has chance at the Ivy title.

If any of the teams in contention – Princeton, Penn and Cornell – win next week, it will own at least a share of the championship.

At this point in the season, however, these teams have more than demonstrated their NCAA tournament pedigree. All three will undoubtedly compete for a national championship regardless of next week’s results. An Ivy trophy will, however, be a significant accolade and confidence booster heading into postseason play.

Men’s, women’s lacrosse teams post crucial weekend victories SANJAY DURESETI Sports Reporter

One team needed to win to keep its season alive. The other had the chance to move into first place in the Ivy League with a victory. And both took care of business.

In a fantastic weekend for Penn lacrosse, the Red and Blue men completed their

climb back from a 1-3 start to Ivy play to clinch the last spot in the four-team Ivy League tournament by beating Dartmouth, while the women created a three-way tie atop the conference standings by topping Harvard on the road.

On Saturday, Penn men’s lacrosse’s (6-5, 3-3 Ivy) season was on the line, as a loss would have eliminated it from playoff contention. Thankfully, Dartmouth, a team with no conference victories since 2015, came to town and the Quakers registered a comfortable 9-4 victory.

The first half was a low-scoring affair, largely due to the play of Dartmouth freshman goalkeeper George Christopher. But Penn was also able to limit the Big Green’s offensive production, as sophomore goalie Reed Junkin once again demonstrated why he ranks among the elite net-minders of Division I lacrosse. Despite the halftime scoreboard reading 3-2, the Quakers were confident that they could get their offense running smoothly in the second-half.

Sophomore Zareh Kaloustian was cut from Penn men’s golf at the start of the 2016 season. In his time away from competition, he found his confidence on the course again.

This past weekend, he finished in the top 10 at the Ivy League Championships and led the Quakers to a fifthplace finish.

“Honestly, getting cut was the best thing to happen to my golf game,” he said.

Kaloustian was only able to participate in the last three tournaments of this season, and it’s no coincidence that his presence coincided with arguably the best run of play put forth by the Red and Blue: the Princeton Invitational, the Yale Invitational, and now, the Ivy League Championship.

The Quakers came into the final tournament of the year especially confident after their second-place finish at the Yale Invitational, starting

Just keep winning.

If last weekend’s four-game sweep of Princeton wasn’t the biggest weekend of the season for Penn baseball, then maybe this one’s was. The Quakers took three of four games against Cornell, who came into the weekend in second place in the Lou Gehrig Division of the Ivy League standings.

For Penn (21-16, 11-5 Ivy), the recent success can be attributed to a variety of factors, but one stands out as most notable — the pitching.

After giving up just 12 runs in the four games last weekend, head coach John Yurkow described his pitching as “consistent” and something that “gives the team a chance to win every time they go out there.”

If he was pleased then, he must be thrilled now. Quakers hurlers allowed just four runs in the four games against Cornell (18-15, 7-9), enough for the best fourgame defensive stretch of the

Recording his 18th career win, senior pitcher Jake Cousins allowed just three hits in Penn baseball’s 5-0 victory over Cornell.

season. Had it not been for an uncharacteristically poor offensive performance in the second game, the Red and Blue may have swept the weekend.

In game one, senior Jake Cousins took the mound and set the tone right away, tossing three hitless innings while the Quakers jumped out to a second-inning lead. That early run would turn out to be all the Red and Blue needed, as Cousins turned in a masterful performance, allowing just three hits on the day while his

teammates tacked on even more runs to win the game 5-0.

With the win (the 18th of his career), Cousins moves into a tie for fifth place on Penn’s alltime wins list. Cousins also set a career best for strikeouts, fanning ten Big Red batters.

Cornell came back in game two by scoring more runs in the first inning than they had the entire first game — two. Quakers senior starter Adam Bleday, after SEE BASEBALL PAGE 8 CONTACT US: 215-422-4640
