"There's no place like home."





"There's no place like home."
That was certainly the case for our varsity student-athletes this weekend. Saturday marked the first time in school history that nine varsity sports competed at home on the same day - and all nine came away winners. The men's and women's rowing teams hosted Division II Philadelphia University and won five of the six races. The men's tennis team won two matches, while the women's tennis team remained unbeaten at 10-0 with a win over Muhlenberg. Our men's and women's lacrosse teams each posted important conference wins over Muhlenberg. On the diamond, baseball swept adouble-header against Ursinus, winning game two in walk-off fashion in the 11th inning, while softball split a pair of games against Muhlenberg, winning game one in walk-off fashion in the 10th. Finally, the sailing team hosted a conference championship-qualifying regatta this weekend and put the finishing touches on its first-place finish Sunday morning. It was a truly remarkable weekend on the fields, on the courts, and on the water and was representative of the continued success our teams are bound to enjoy. There are plenty of games left.
