Personal Best

If any athlete has something to prove to himself in the upcoming season, it is Pete Habegger. He has been a bit unlucky during his first two years at Penn, being plagued by injuries. Now that his body is nearing 100 percent, he is ready to show the league what he is truly capable of. This young man is not afraid to put in the effort to become great. Now that his body is responding, it should be exciting for him to accomplish some of the goals he set when he entered Penn two years ago. Habegger will spend the fall training as a decathlete, which may open up some new events for him in the winter and spring. The added strength will hopefully allow Habbegger to have a healthy and productive junior campaign. Habegger is a student in the College of Arts and Sciences majoring in psychology.
