In this week's edition of Is Stat So?, both of Penn's football teams struggle on offense, Penn women's soccer proves it can close out games, and and field hockey puts one in at the last moment. Check out last week's edition here.
Penn had more rush yards in every previous game than it had total yards in its 16-7 loss on Friday. It was also the first time Penn was held to one touchdown all year.
Freshman Sizzy Lawton scored the opening goal 10 minutes into the first half against Dartmouth, and that goal was enough to clinch a 1-0 win.
Freshman Elita van Staden scored the goal, her second of the game, to even the score at five. Columbia won the game in the extra period, 6-5.
The Quakers suffered their worst loss to Columbia of all time, and failed to score on offense in the 44-6 decision.
The Quakers last scored against Columbia in the 11th minute, before two shoutout losses to UMBC and Dartmouth. Penn is averaging just .91 goals per game this season.
