Head Coach Leslie King 

7th Season • Cal State Fullerton ‘85 • 

Head coach Leslie King enters her seventh season at the helm of the University of 

Pennsylvania softball team. Since her arrival at Penn, King has coached 38 All-Ivy players, 

including two-time Player of the Year (2006, 2008) Christina Khosravi and the 2007 

Player of the Year, Annie Kinsey. In 2007, Kinsey also was named to the Easton All- 

American second team. In addition, several of King’s players have entered the Penn record 

books. 

In 2009, Penn finished 

second in the Ivy 

South Division, with 

seven players receiving 

All-Ivy recognition, 

including first-team 

selections Alisha 

Prystowsky and Kelsey 

Wolfe. Earning the 

honor for the second consecutive year, Prystowsky ranks 

among Penn’s top career hitters after just two seasons of play. 

In 2008, Khrosravi was named Ivy Player of the Year for 

the second time in her career, while Jessie Lupardus was 

named Rookie of the Year. The duo of Kinsey and Khrosravi 

also finished at the top of most season and career offensive 

records at Penn. As a team, the Quakers set the program record 

for wins in a season (26). 

After a record-breaking 2006 season, and with ten seniors 

anchoring the squad, expectations were high for 2007, and the 

team did not disappoint. The Red and Blue finished the year 

as the best team in Penn softball history, winning the first Ivy 

League South Division title in program history. As a team, 

they set program records for runs scored (231), doubles (68), 

home runs (46), RBI (216), and slugging percentage (.494). 

Their team batting average of .301 was the second best in 

program history. 

Penn also made a name for itself on a national level. The 

Quakers’ defense led the nation in double plays per game 

(0.60) for almost the entire season. The team was also atop 

the Ivy League in multiple categories. The Quakers led the 

league in slugging percentage, on-base percentage (.378) and 

home runs, and were second in the Ancient Eight in batting 

average, runs, doubles, and RBI. But the real measure of 

success for this squad was the improvement they saw from 

the 2006 season, both offensively and in the circle. The team 

scored 43 more runs, had 20 more home runs, 47 more RBI 

and improved their slugging percentage, batting average and 

on-base percentage. The pitching staff’s ERA went down 1.18 

runs, as they allowed 38 fewer hits, 40 fewer runs, and 16 

fewer home runs. 

In 2006, the team went 18-26, tying an all-time record for 

wins at Penn. The team led the Ivy League in batting average, 

slugging percentage, hits, doubles, triples, walks and RBI’s. 

Khosravi’s batting average of .407 was good for fourth alltime, 

and Kinsey’s average of .393 was good for seventh alltime. 

Prior to Penn, King was the head coach at George 

Washington University where she was instrumental in 

developing softball into a varsity sport for its inaugural 

season in 2003. Prior to her stint at GW, King was the assistant 

softball coach at Lock Haven University where she helped 

lead the team to a school-record 37 wins and a berth in the 

NCAA Regionals in 2002.

For 14 years, King was the starting shortstop for the New 

Zealand National softball team and served as captain of the 

squad that qualified for the Olympics in 2000. She was named 

the 2000 New Zealand Player of the Year, and her team won a 

silver medal at the World Championships that same season. 

A dual athlete, King also played for the New Zealand 

soccer team. She captained the squad at the 1991 FIFA World 

Cup. 

Her coaching tenure began in 1982 when she was a hitting 

and catching instructor for the Grand Slam Academy and 

served as a clinician at the Cal State Fullerton softball summer 

camp. King also served as the regional coach for the New 

Zealand Softball Association and was a player/coach for the 

Ramblers and Metro softball clubs in that country until 1991. 

King earned a bachelor’s degree in physical education 

from Cal State Fullerton in 1985. While at Fullerton, she was 

an Academic All-America nominee and a three-time member 

of the Dean’s List. 

A four-year starter at catcher for the nationally ranked 

Fullerton softball program, King was a three-time allconference 

honoree and helped lead her team to the Women’s 

College World Series three times including a pair of runnerup 

finishes. After her collegiate career, King earned a spot on 

the 1985 USA National Team that toured South Korea and 

China.

Meet the Coaches 

Melissa Finley begins her third season as Penn’s assistant coach. She 

joined the Quaker staff for the 2008 season as the pitching coach after 

graduating from Princeton in 2005. A four-year starter as a pitcher and 

center fielder, she had a career record of 22-18 in the circle and a career 

batting average of .334. 

Finley led the Tigers to three NCAA Regional Tournament 

appearances by winning three Ivy League championships (2002, 2003, 

2005). She was the Ivy League Player of the Year in 2003 and an All-Ivy 

selection all four years. Finley holds Princeton’s all-time and singleseason 

records for home runs and is third all-time on the list for RBI’s. 

Finley has also competed with the Canadian National Team and 

participated in Canada Cups, U.S. Cups and won a silver medal at the 

Pan-Am Games in 2003. 

A native of London, Ontario (Canada), Finley earned her Princeton 

degree in economics. 

Quoting Coach King 

What are your team’s goals for the 2010 season? 

Our goal every year is to win the Ivy League title. This year is no different. We have a team heavy in underclassmen, but they 

are loaded with talent. There are some very experienced teams in the League but we feel like we can compete with and beat 

anyone on any given day. 

Who will be your most competitive opponents this season? What will be the keys to winning those games? 

We have a challenging non-league schedule against the usual regional opponents: Saint Joseph’s, Lehigh, Temple, Villanova, etc. 

All of these teams are strong programs that will provide good preparation for League games. We always are competitive with 

these teams and will need to be at our best to get the wins. Within the League, ‘09 champions Cornell returns virtually its entire 

lineup and will be the team to beat along with perennial powers Princeton and Harvard. Dartmouth was the upstart team last 

year and looks to be strong again in 2010. Again, it will be a matter of playing well on the day and bringing our best to each and 

every game. 

With four returning All-Ivy selections and eight newcomers, what do you see as the difference between this year’s team and 

past teams that can give Penn softball its first Ivy title since 1981? 

I believe we are bringing in more talent each year and getting better and better. That talent gives us a chance. One big key for us 

will be the leadership of the returners. If they can show the way, the newcomers have the ability to perform at a very high level 

and win some ball games. 

What kind of offseason work has the team done to improve their skills and to prepare for the grueling pace of the season 

(~48 games in ~55 days)? 

This team has worked as hard or harder on its conditioning than any team we have had here at Penn. They have dedicated 

themselves to getting in the best shape possible to handle the rigors of our schedule. Out of those physical workouts grows 

mental toughness that will carry us through periods of pressure and fatigue. 

What do you enjoy most about coaching at Penn? 

I feel privileged to work with such bright and talented young women. I get to coach the sport I love and work with what I 

consider to be the “cream of the crop” of student-athletes. They have infinite potential and possibilities ahead of them – that is 

very exciting to be a part of!

2009 Season in Review 

Despite graduating possibly the best two players to go 

through the Penn softball program (Annie Kinsey and 

Christina Khosravi), the young Quakers saw success in all 

parts of the 2009 season, finishing second in the Ivy South 

Division with a 10-10 conference record. 

The season kicked off in late February when Penn headed 

to the George Mason Tournament in Virginia. Thinking 

they would find warmer weather, the tournament was 

interrupted by snow and frigid air. The Red and Blue 

managed to get three games in and returned to Philly 

with an early 1-2 record, including a 6-1 win over the host 

Patriots where Alisha Prystowsky recorded her first home 

run of the season. 

The Quakers followed their first tournament with the Rebel 

Spring Games in Orlando, Fla. The Games have seen many 

Penn teams come for early-season tune-ups, and this year it 

provided Penn the same opportunity. The Quakers picked 

up three wins over the week, while the newcomers became 

accustomed to wearing the Penn uniform. 

After three non-conference doubleheaders, the Quakers 

hosted Dartmouth in the first of the Ancient Eight 

matchups. Penn and the Big Green split the twinbill on 

Warren Field, with Emily Denstedt picking up an 8-0 win 

on the mound for the first shutout of the season for Penn. 

After dropping two to Harvard to finish their opening Ivy 

weekend, the Quakers split with Brown and swept Yale the 

following weekend in their first Ivy road trip of 2009. 

After a tough weekend in Ithaca, N.Y., falling to the 

eventual Ivy South Champion Cornell, the Quakers finished 

the Ivy season on a high note. 

Penn’s back-to-back 3-1 weekends with Princeton and 

Columbia propelled the team to a 10-10 league record that 

allowed it to overcome Ivy nemesis Princeton in the final 

stretch for second in the South Division. Denstedt and 

Anna Puglisi were honored on senior day as the Red and 

Blue downed Columbia 8-1 in game one and recorded an 

8-6 come-from-behind win to close out the season. 

Individually, it was a record-breaking season for quite a 

few Quakers. Following a standout freshman campaign, 

Prystowsky continued her success into her sophomore year, 

putting herself on several of Penn’s hitting record lists and 

earning first-team All-Ivy recognition. She holds a share of 

the single-season doubles record (15) and is third in runs in 

a season (35), while also leading the team with a .372 batting 

average and starting all 44 games. 

Junior Keiko Uraguchi earned second-team All-Ivy honors 

as she once again commanded center field. With quick feet, 

Keiko swiped 10 bases, good for fourth in a single season 

and in a career (21). 

First-team All-Ivy selection Kelsey Wolfe made big 

contributions as a utility player in her sophomore season, 

including a .353 batting average, a game-winning triple 

against Yale, and 11 multi-hit games. Freshman Meg Krasne 

also shined offensively, playing the designated player role. 

Her clutch hitting added a spark to the Quakers’ end of the 

season run and earned her honorable mention all-league 

recognition. 

Penn’s pitching staff was led by sophomore Jessie 

Lupardus, who ended the season with a team-low 1.54 

ERA, while striking out 91 – third highest in a single season. 

Lupardus now headlines the program’s career strikeout 

list with 268. Denstedt, sophomore Tory Satagaj, and 

newcomers Chelsea Ott and Cailyn Hennessy provided 

depth in the rotation and out of the bullpen for the Quakers.

Penn Athletics Hall of Fame 

The University of Pennsylvania 

athletic department established the 

Penn Athletics Hall of Fame in 1996 

to honor the greatest athletes and 

coaches ever to wear and coach the 

Red and Blue. After six induction 

ceremonies, the list of honorees has 

grown to include 152 people who 

helped create Penn’s rich athletic 

history and tradition. The Penn 

softball program has been honored 

with one member of this prestigious 

collection of distinguished individuals. 

Betty Tuppeny C’82 

Betty Tuppeny is Penn softball’s alltime 

leader in career wins (31) and 

single-season victories (13), and is second 

in complete games pitched (43). 

Lettering for four seasons (1979- 

82), Tuppeny led the Quakers to an 

overall record of 49-20-1. 

In 1981, the hallmark season of 

Tuppeny’s collegiate career, she led 

the team to the program’s only Ivy 

League championship. That year she 

posted a win-loss record of 13-3, hurling 

more than 110 innings, striking 

out 33 batters and recording a careerbest 

ERA of 1.45. Her stellar skills on 

the mound helped the Quakers to a 

1981 regular-season record of 18-4. 

The Quakers captured their secondconsecutive 

regional championship, 

compiling a 4-0 record, and also 

hosted and won the Philadelphia and 

Ivy League tournaments. 

The name “Tuppeny” is not an 

unfamiliar one to the University of 

Pennsylvania Athletic Department 

or its Hall of Fame. James “Tup” 

Tuppeny, father of Betty and prolific 

track and field coach and Director of 

the Penn Relays for 18 years, was a 

member of the Second Class of the 

Athletic Hall of Fame which was 

inducted in 1998. The Tuppeny’s are 

the only father-daughter combination 

in the Penn Athletics Hall of Fame.

Home of the Quakers 

Warren Field is home to the Penn softball program. Made possible 

by a gift from Penn alum Judy Warren Bartos, CW’62, Warren Field is located below the 

Philadelphia skyline on the western bank of the Schuylkill River at the southeast end of the 

University City campus. After the 2005 season, vast improvements were made to the playing 

surface. A brand new grass and dirt surface, along with a warning track around the outside 

of the field, were added. A new drainage system was also put in underneath the playing 

surface. A new seating area was erected in the fall of 2002 and Warren Field can now hold 

more than 200 spectators. It is also handicapped accessible.

Welcome to Penn... 

Did You Know? 

ESPN ‘s Gameday aired 

from Franklin Field in 2003. 

It was the first time the crew 

had broadcast from an FCS 

school. 

Franklin Field was the 

setting for “Unbreakable” 

and “Invincible” (left) 

while the Quad (right) was 

featured in “Transformers 

2.” Ludacris, Akon and 

Third Eye Blind have been 

recent headline performers 

at Spring Fling. 

The traditional collegiate atmosphere offered 

on Penn’s scenic campus is not only 

enjoyed by the University’s students, but 

has also provided the backdrop for several 

Hollywood blockbusters, hot concerts 

and even ESPN’s College Gameday. 

• Nine Penn alumni, faculty 

members and trustees 

signed the Declaration of 

Independence. 

• Eleven alumni, faculty 

members, and trustees 

signed the U.S. 

Constitution.

• Penn is the only school in 

the country to have at least 

one representative on every 

U.S. summer Olympics 

team since 1900. 

• The record nine gold 

medals Penn students and 

alumni won at the 1900

Quaker Mascot 

Penn’s sports teams are nicknamed the Quakers after the religion adopted by 

William Penn, who established Pennsylvania as a Quaker province. Today, we see 

the Quaker at Penn football and basketball games. In the 1920s, a proposal was made 

to change the Quaker mascot to the Penguin, but the students found the animal was 

too weak as a representative. 

Penn Songs 

“The Red and the Blue” is probably 

the most well-known Penn song, and 

is sung at the end of many Penn events. 

It was written in 1896 and places the 

origins of Penn’s colors as a combination 

of those of the best of her rivals. Arm 

motions accompany the song’s refrain. 

Other popular songs include “Fight On, 

Pennsylvania!” and “Drink a Highball.” 

The Button 

Created by Claes Oldenberg and installed 

in front of Van Pelt Library in 1981, the 

Button is 16 feet in diameter, weighs 

5,000 pounds, and is cast in reinforced 

aluminum. Oldenberg once told the 

Philadelphia Inquirer that “the Split represents the Schuylkill. It divides the button 

into four parts — for William Penn’s original Philadelphia squares.” 

Spring Fling 

Since the 70s, Spring Fling has been the ultimate student festival at Penn. Beginning 

in 1972, with an attendance between ten and fifteen thousand, students descend 

onto the Quad, Hill Square, College Green, and Wynn Commons to dance, eat, party, 

and enjoy a day full of surprises. Each Spring Fling consists of a carnival with games and 

events, a concert hosting high-profile bands, and the Quad concerts, which showcase 

some of the hottest local bands and performers. 

Hey Day 

In 1916, Hey Day was established as a “Moving-Up” celebration - a formal day to mark 

the advancement of each class. In recent decades, Hey Day, which is unique to Penn, 

represents the official passage of the junior class to senior status and is characterized by 

thousands of marching students parading around campus sporting fake straw hats, red 

t-shirts and canes. 

Penn Traditions 

The Red and Blue 

Come all ye loyal classmen now, 

in hall and campus through, 

Lift up your hearts and voices for 

the royal Red and Blue. 

Fair Harvard has her crimson, 

Old Yale her colors too. 

But for dear Pennsylvania, 

we wear the Red and Blue. 

Chorus: 

Hurrah! Hurrah! Pennsylvan-I-ah! 

Hurrah for the Red and Blue! 

Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah! 

Hurrah for the Red and Blue! 

Fight On! 

Fight on, Pennsylvania! 

Put the ball across that line. 

Fight you Pennsylvanians! 

There it goes across this time. 

Red and blue we’re with you 

And we’re cheering for your men. 

So it’s fight, fight, fight Pennsylvania 

Fight on for Penn! 

Toast Throwing 

Toast throwing is one of the most unique 

sporting traditions in which crowds of Quakers 

fans perform as a sign of school pride. After the 

third quarter of home football games, fans unite 

in the singing of “Drink a Highball.” As the last 

line is sung—“Here’s a toast to dear old Penn”— 

the fans toss toasted bread to the sidelines. The 

act of throwing toast was adopted after alcohol 

was banned from the stadium in the 1970s. 

Students turned towards bread, and even bagels, 

so that they could continue to raise a “toast” to 

Penn.

Making History—Penn Eliminates Loans 

Over the past three years ... Penn has moved 

aggressively to enhance its undergraduate financial aid 

programs, including the elimination of loans for students 

from families with income under $50,000 in 2006, with that 

threshold increasing to $60,000 in 2007. 

Through these efforts, the number of students attending 

Penn has doubled in families below this income threshold. In 

addition, the benefit of these moves has been demonstrated 

through the increase in the number of no-loan packages from 

31-percent to 49-percent of the grant-aided admitted freshman 

class. In addition, the new policies have decreased the average 

debt at graduation from $20,927 in 2006 to $18,800 in 2007, a 

decrease of 10-percent. 

Effective for the 2009-10 academic year, a 

student admitted to Penn who is eligible to 

receive financial aid will no longer have to 

take on any loans to study at Penn. 

With the enthusiastic support of the Penn Trustees, President 

Gutmann announced a bold new initiative to eliminate loans 

for all students eligible for financial aid, regardless of family 

income. Consequently, effective for the 2009-10 academic 

year, a student admitted to Penn who is eligible to receive 

financial aid will no longer have to take on any loans to study 

at Penn. This transformative initiative will continue Penn’s 

commitment to lower- and lower-middle income students 

while also lifting the burden off of students from middle- and 

upper-middle income families, who typically have carried the 

greatest debt from higher education. 

24 


Financial Aid 

We urge you not to let financial concerns deter you from 

applying to Penn. The University guarantees that any accepted 

student who matriculates with demonstrated financial need 

will receive a financial-aid package that meets the full extent of 

the student’s need for a full four years. 

• 55-percent of all undergraduates receive some form of 

financial aid, including grant, loan and work-study job. 

• 40-percent of all undergraduates are eligible for needbased 

aid. 

• This year Penn will award over $102 million in grant aid 

• Beginning in fall 2008, all undergraduate students – not 

just entering freshmen – from families with calculated 

incomes under $100,000 will receive no-loan aid packages. 

Families with incomes above that level will receive a 10- 

percent reduction in need-based loans. 

• Beginning in fall 2009, all undergraduate students eligible 

for financial aid will receive loan-free aid packages, 

regardless of family income level. 

• This new initiative is the latest step in the University’s 

goal to make a Penn education affordable and accessible 

to students from a wide spectrum of economic 

backgrounds. Penn currently spends more than 

$90 million per year of its resources for grant aid to 

undergraduate students. When the new initiative is fully 

implemented, that figure will exceed $110 million — an 

increase of more than 20-percent. 

• The new financial aid initiative is expected to benefit more 

than 40-percent of Penn’s undergraduates. The University 

will finance this initiative largely through funds raised 

from its recently launched, five-year, $3.5 billion “Making 

History” capital campaign, which includes a $350 million 

goal for undergraduate financial aid endowment. During 

the silent phase of the campaign Penn raised over 400 new 

aid scholarships. 

• Penn also recently launched a new outreach program 

targeting hundreds of schools and thousands of students 

from low and middle income families — who might never 

have considered applying to Penn — to let them know 

that if they can get accepted to Penn, they will receive a 

full financial aid package with no loans. 

How to Apply for Aid

The Ivy League 

Sponsoring conference championships in 

a nation-leading 33 men’s and women’s 

sports, and averaging more than 35 varsity 

teams at each school, the Council of 

Ivy Group Presidents—known as the Ivy 

League—provides intercollegiate athletic 

opportunities for more men and women 

than any other conference in the country. 

All eight Ivy schools are among the Top 20 

of NCAA Division I schools in number of 

sports offered for both men and women. 

The Ivy League By the Numbers 

Since 2000, the Ivy League has... 

• Produced NCAA individual champions 

in seven sports and NCAA team championships 

in four sports. The League 

has also captured national champions 

in the non-NCAA sports such as men’s 

squash and men’s rowing. All eight 

Ivy League schools have had at least 

one NCAA champion—individual or 

team—during this span. 

• Amassed more than 100 All-Americans 

each year. 

• Averaged more than a dozen Academic 

All-Americans each year, including an 

all-time high of 18 in 2006-07. 

• Had 162 competitors at the four Olympic 

Games (2000, ’02, ’04 and ’06). Those 

162 have collected 53 medals, including 

18 gold. 

• Sent numerous athletes into the professional 

ranks — the Women’s United 

Soccer Association, National Football 

League, Major League Soccer, Major 

League Lacrosse, National Hockey 

League and Major League Baseball. 

• Became the first conference to “sweep” 

the four major NCAA Honors in the 

same year (2006). 

Study Abroad 

• Penn offers opportunities to study abroad 

on more than 125 programs in 60 countries. 

• Penn ranks first among the Ivy League 

schools and 12th nationwide among doctoral/research 

institutions in the number of 

students studying abroad, according to the 

most recent data (Institute for International 

Education, 2007). 

• In 2005-06, the most recent year of data, 

1,815 Penn students participated in study 

abroad programs.

Now in his 16th year at his alma mater, 

Steve Bilsky has created a rich environment 

for student-athletes to thrive athletically 

and academically. 

During his tenure, 77 Penn teams have 

earned conference championships in 21 

different sports. Penn has been honored 

with more than 300 Academic All-Ivy 

honorees, 27 Ivy League Players of the Year, 

and 97 All-Americans. 

To support that success, Bilsky has made 

efforts to secure the best facilities and 

coaching for Penn. Since raising $800,000 in 

1994, Penn Athletics has nearly quadrupled 

the athletic department’s annual Weightman 

Fund, topping three million dollars in 

both 2007 and 2008. Through discreet 

fundraising drives, Penn Athletics has 

built or renovated more than 15 facilities. 

In terms of personnel, the department has 

received specific donations to endow nine 

head coaching positions as well as the Penn 

Relays directorship. 

Bilsky has also raised Penn’s profile 

nationally, as during his tenure the University has been the 

host institution for six NCAA Championships. 

In 1996, Bilsky formed the Penn Athletic Hall of Fame; a 

total of six classes have been inducted, the latest in May 2008. 

Before returning to Penn in 1994, Bilsky was executive 

director of the Department of Athletics and Recreation at 

George Washington University. Prior to that, he was assistant 

director of athletics at Penn (1979-83). His educational 

background includes a Master’s degree in counseling 

psychology from the Oregon in 1975, and a bachelor’s in 

economics from Penn’s Wharton School in 1971. 

A basketball standout, Bilsky was a three-time All-Ivy 

guard and captained a Penn team that was arguably the greatest in program 

history—in 1970-71, the Quakers went undefeated through the regular season 

and NCAA Tournament before finally losing to Villanova in the Eastern 

Regional final. Bilsky is a member of the Philadelphia Big 5 Hall of Fame 

(1988), the Penn Athletic Hall of Fame (1998), and the Philadelphia Jewish 

Sports Hall of Fame (2002). 

Bilsky’s wife, Sue, is a 1975 graduate of the Penn College of Arts and 

Sciences and the Graduate School of Education. She also holds a Master’s 

degree from Wharton. Their son Jeff recently graduated from Penn, while 

daughter Katie enrolled at Penn in 2007.

Penn Athletics Sport Boards 

The Penn Athletics Sports Boards represent all of Penn’s 33 varsity sports 

and consist of a diverse group of individuals, including former athletes, 

alumni, parents, and friends of Penn Athletics. Membership is open to 

anyone interested in becoming more personally involved with their particular 

sport and with Penn Athletics overall. These sport specific volunteer organizations 

provide vital support to the Division of Recreation and Intercollegiate 

Athletics staff and coaches. They actively promote the continued importance 

of Recreation and Athletics in leadership and teamwork development as part 

of a Penn education. 

The purpose of each Sports Board is to supply information about Penn 

teams and Penn Athletics to its alumni, parents, and friends. They also provide 

a vital support network for today’s student-athletes through mentoring 

and career advising. Sports Board members create an important “peer-topeer” 

link and emphasize that a lifelong fiscal and personal support of their 

sport and Penn Athletics is a critical component of their athletics experience 

at Penn. Through the sponsoring of career networking and job placement, 

hosting of special events including receptions, alumni games, and the raising 

of money to support their sport and Penn Athletics as a whole, Sports Board 

members augment the experience of current Penn student-athletes. These 

dedicated volunteers forge a strong connection between Penn Athletics and 

the alumni community and use their professional and personal expertise 

to ensure that Penn reaches its lofty fundraising goals, sustains a loyal and 

spirited community, and maintains a network of active alumni to continue 

Penn Athletics’ rich tradition of excellence and personal distinction. 

Coach and Sport Endowments 

In order to strengthen Penn’s coaches and their programs—and 

to ensure the highest benefit to our student-athletes—Penn Athletics 

actively seeks financial support to endow its head coaching positions. 

Establishing an endowed fund with Penn Athletics allows individuals 

and families to ensure that our coaches and student-athletes have 

a perpetual and consistent support base well into the future. It is an 

important way for donors to recognize that participation in athletics 

is an important part of the entire educational experience. It also pays 

tribute to the important role coaches perform as educators, mentors 

and friends, while providing real financial benefits for their programs. 

The following coaching positions are currently endowed: 

W. Joseph Blood Head Coach of Baseball 

John R. Rockwell Head Coach of Men’s Basketball 

George A. Munger Head Coach of Football 

Head Coach of Men’s Lacrosse: Anonymous 

Head Coach of Women’s Lacrosse: Anonymous 

Nicholas B. Paumgarten Head Coach of Men’s Heavyweight Rowing 

James C. Gentle Head Coach of Men’s Soccer 

Albert G. Molloy Head Coach of Men’s Tennis 

James P. Tuppeny Head Coach of Men’s Track & Field 

Frank Dolson Director of the Penn Relays

Penn Connects 

Penn Connects, the Campus Development 

Planning Study for the University 

of Pennsylvania was submitted by 

Sasaki Associates in June 2006. The 

plan acknowledges the unprecedented 

opportunity to transform the Penn campus 

in response to the acquisition of property 

along the Schuylkill River. This campus 

expansion of contiguous land will enable 

the University, for the first time in history, 

to establish a major physical presence 

along the Schuylkill River corridor, create 

new gateways to the campus from the city, 

and establish new connections with the 

surrounding communities. 

In terms of Penn Athletics, the planning 

study aims to create a signature new urban 

park to include sports and recreation 

fields east of Franklin Field on the site of 

the existing Bower Field and the surface 

parking areas of the postal lands. This 

“once in a generation” opportunity will 

also enable Penn Athletics to address many 

of its programmatic needs, as well as key 

priorities that may arise over the next 

several years. 

Though still in the planning stages and 

subject to change, Penn Athletics intends to 

create the Franklin Field Pavilion to house 

existing named spaces as well as some new 

construction and renovation of existing 

spaces. The north side of the stadium, inside 

the arcades, would include the Avery Blake 

Lacrosse Complex, the George A. 

Munger Complex, a new 15,000 square foot 

intercollegiate varsity weight room, a new 

recreational fitness center to complement 

the state-of-the-art Pottruck Health and 

Fitness Center built in 2003, retail space, a 

renovated and enhanced training room and 

locker facilities. In addition, there are plans 

to build two synthetic turf fields and two 

smaller grass fields (all for intercollegiate 

and recreational use), a new softball-specific 

stadium, outdoor tennis complex and a 

seasonal air structure that will serve as an 

indoor practice facility that can be raised 

and lowered during the winter months. 

Another major change on the landscape 

of the athletics area of campus is the creation 

of the Palestra Green; a green quadrangle in 

front of the Palestra and adjacent to Franklin 

Field that would be part of the urban park 

extending along the banks of the river. The 

tennis courts, currently outside the Palestra, 

will be moved to a new outdoor tennis 

center on the existing Bower Field. 

These plans hope to provide for a series of 

new public gathering and circulation spaces 

in the Palestra and Franklin Field area that 

serve to link the newly acquired property, 

campus and community.
