PREVIEWING PENN
*The Quakers look to rebound after a tough 4-0 loss at the hands of Dartmouth on Saturday night, dropping them to 0-2-1 in the Ivy League. Penn did a solid job of controlling much of the run of play throughout the contest, but were bitten in the final third as the Big Green converted all four of their shots into goals. 

*Senior Joe Swenson continues to lead the team in points with seven on three goals and an assist. Fellow classmate Sam Wancowicz owns two assists, the most on the team.

*Five Quakers have started and played in all 11 contests on the year: Swenson, Wancowicz, Jerel Blades, Erumuse Momoh and Brandon Bartel. Momoh leads the team with 1,002 minutes played.

*Etan Mabourakh and Scott Forbes have split time nearly evenly in the cage for the Red and Blue, both owning one win each. 

*Penn has proven to be stronger on both sides of the ball in the first half compared to the second. Six of the Quakers' eight goals scored this year have come in the first period of play while the Red and Blue have allowed seven less goals in the first half than the second. 

NEWS AND NOTES: VILLANOVA
*The Wildcats are 6-7 overall entering Tuesday's non-conference matchup, with a 2-3 mark in BIG EAST action.
