PHILADELPHIA – No. 10 Penn (11-2, 5-0 Ivy) closes its 2018 regular season with a pair of road games, needing one win to clinch at least a share of the program's 13th Ivy League championship. First stop for the Quakers on the road trip is No. 18 Princeton (8-5, 4-1 Ivy) on Wednesday night at 7 p.m. before visiting Yale (7-7, 2-4 Ivy) on Saturday at 4 p.m.
 
Both games will air worldwide on the subscription-based Ivy League Network (ILN), now available on Apple TV, Roku and the ILN app for Android and Apple devices as well as on ESPN+.
 
Championship Implications
The Quakers are in the catbird's seat in the Ivy League standings, controlling their own destiny with a 5-0 Ancient Eight record heading into the final weekend of games. A win in either game this week gives the Quakers a share of the title, while two wins would secure the program's seventh outright Ivy League championship. Also at stake this week, hosting rights for the 2018 Ivy League Tournament. If the Quakers are victorious at Princeton on Wednesday, they will not only secure a share of a championship, they will have the tiebreakers needed to host the ILT May 4-6 at Penn Park.
