Senior Celebration
Prior to Saturday's game, the Quakers will celebrate the careers of the Class of 2022: Sarah Lavers, Julia Russo, Madison Woods, Lily Clarkson, Ashley Wetzel, Catherine McInerney, Gracyn Banks, Madison Jiranek, and Maddy Fagan. These nine seniors have secured 24 victories over three seasons, finishing in the top three of the Ivy League each year with a combined 13 wins entering Saturday's game against Dartmouth.

The Series with Dartmouth
The Quakers own a 25-16-3 overall record against the Big Green since 1973. Riding a five-game win streak that dates back to the 2015 season, Penn has never lost to Dartmouth on Ellen Vagelos Field, with the first game being played on the turf in 2013 with a 5-4 overtime victory.

Last Time We Met
In the 2019 season, the Quakers hosted Dartmouth for a mid-October battle. Meghan Ward and Fagan were the scoring heroes in a 4-3 overtime victory, each scoring two goals including the game winner in the 64th minute. Penn outshot the Big Green, 22-9, in the matchup.
 
About Dartmouth
The Big Green are 4-12 overall, 0-6 in the Ivy League, entering Saturday's game, looking to snap a nine-game skid that dates back to the middle of September when they defeated Merrimack, 5-0. Last weekend, Dartmouth had a pair of games on the road, falling to Yale, 4-0, before dropping a 6-1 decision to Providence.
 
Quaker Notemeal
*Penn registered back-to-back shutout victories last weekend in wins over Columbia and Temple marking the first time since 2018 with two straight shutouts. In 2018, the Quakers defeated Yale, 2-0, before tackling Brown, 1-0, in late October.

*Fagan scored both goals for the Quakers in the 2-0 win over Temple, tying a career-best mark for her collegiate career. She scored two goals in a single game twice in the 2019 season, in a 5-2 win against Cornell and a 4-3 victory over Dartmouth.

*Banks was tabbed Ivy League Defensive Player of the Week on Monday for the second time this season after scoring the game-winning goal at Columbia last Friday while adding two defensive saves. She currently leads the Ivy League in defensive saves with five.

*The win at Columbia last Friday marked the first time head coach Colleen Fink defeated the Lions on the road in her career with the Quakers.
