Duringthe past 10 years more than 100,000 young men and women from high schools, colleges, clubs, thearmed services, prep schools, junior high schools, middle schools, parochial schools and elementaryschools have competed in the Carnival. The athletes range in age from under eight to over 80.In 2009, during some 34 hours <strong>of</strong> competition on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, more than 465races were run, an average <strong>of</strong> more than one raceevery five minutes. In all, 936 high schools from 18states, Washington D.C., and seven other countriesparticipated. There were also 245 colleges from 37states, Washington D.C., and four other countries inaendance.

The sprint medley relay team broke aprogram mark that was set in 2005 and the 4x1500-meter relay set the schoolstandard in the Championship <strong>of</strong> America race.• There were several athletes that performed at the <strong>Penn</strong> Relays in April aerwinning medals at the 2008 Beijing Olympics eight months earlier.

The topperformances <strong>of</strong> the weekend for <strong>Penn</strong>were led by Aagenes’ All-Ivy effort inthe 800 meters where she placed second.Junior Hannah Cope also earned All-Ivyhonors with a second-place showing inthe 60-meter hurdles. Others with strongperformances in <strong>Penn</strong>’s fih-place teamfinish included sophomore Kali Stotherin the 200 meters, finishing fih. JuniorKathryn Gevitz was third in the long jumpand also scored in the triple jump, placingfourth. Freshman Catherine Okoukoniwas fih in the triple jump and fellowfreshman Leah Brown placed fourth in the60 meters. Another freshman, high jumperKristen Judge, was fih in her event andthe underclassmen filled 4x400-meterrelay team was sixth. In all, 11 differentQuakers broke into the program’s indoorall-time top ten lists on 15 occassions.Only two <strong>of</strong> those 11 have graduated,meaning this young team will surelycontinue to develop and grow into one <strong>of</strong>the best indoor teams in the Ivy League.Judge2008-09 HonorsAll-EastINDOORAnna Aagenes800 meters . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2:10.53Kinjal ParikhDistance Medley Relay. . . .11:50.00Kimberly ShooshanDistance Medley Relay. . . .11:50.00Laura SteelDistance Medley Relay. . . .11:50.00Rachel VillaDistance Medley Relay. . . .11:50.00OUTDOORAnna Aagenes800 meters . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2:10.46All-IvyINDOORAnna AagenesSecond Team (800m). . . . . . .2:08.80Hannah CopeSecond Team (60m hurdles) . . 8.84OUTDOORAnna AagenesSecond Team (800m). . . . . . .2:09.18Leah BrownSecond Team (4x100) . . . . . . . 46.51Paige MadisonSecond Team (4x100) . . . . . . . 46.51Renee McDougallSecond Team (4x100) . . . . . . . 46.51Kali StrotherSecond Team (4x100) . . . . . . . 46.51NCAA QualifiersCROSS COUNTRYLeah BroganSchool RecordsOUTDOOREvent . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Therewere strong efforts from the team on aconsistent basis, but not quite enoughexperience to take them all the way. Atthe Outdoor Heptagonal Championshipsheld at Franklin <strong>Field</strong>, the team onceagain placed many <strong>of</strong> its athletes into thefinals, but the young group was unableto grab points from the more experiencedopposition, finishing seventh as a team atthe event.2008-09 Year In ReviewUnderclassmen again accounted formost <strong>of</strong> the scoring for the Quakers. LeahBrown was fourth in the 100 meters andseventh in the 200 meters. NCAA Regionalqualifier, Anna Aagenes was second inthe 800 meters. In the 100-meter hurdles,freshman Paige Madison was fourth, andplaced once again in the 400 hurdles,finishing fih. Freshman CatherineOkoukoni was sixth in the triple jump andthe 4x100-meter relay—made up <strong>of</strong> allunderclassmen—earned All-Ivy honorswith a second place finish <strong>of</strong> 46.51 — thesecond-best time in program history.At the 115th running <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Penn</strong> Relays,the Quakers set two school records.They broke the school mark in the sprintmedley relay and, in the Championship<strong>of</strong> America race, they shaered the <strong>Penn</strong>record in 4x1500-meter relay.In the postseason, nearly two dozenQuakers competed at the ECACChampionships and two Quakers—Aagenes and Brogan—reached the NCAAEast Regional Championships.The Quakers pose after the 2009 Outdoor Heptagonal Championships.Left to right: Renee McDougall, Kali Strother, PaigeMadison and Leah Brown made up the 4x100 relay team.Top Returning Performances <strong>of</strong> 2008-0960 Meters1.

Underher leadership, the cross country/track and fieldprogram flourished, and distinguished itself as aconsistently competitive program within the IvyLeague and in the East.Considered one <strong>of</strong> the most successful coachesin Ivy League track and field history, Bey’s teamswon an impressive seven Heptagonal championships, 11 Ivy Leaguetitles, and 10 Big Five championships. More than 140 athletes garneredAll-Ivy honors during her tenure at <strong>Penn</strong>, and more then 50 were guidedto individual Heptagonal championships. Among them were the 1981cross country team that ran at the National Championships, and 1982national qualifiers Riva Gensib (5,000) and Mary Turner (800).Six <strong>of</strong> Bey’s student-athletes became NCAA Qualifiers, includingfellow Hall <strong>of</strong> Fame Class VI inductee Kate O’Hern; Sue Eckel; ChristelleWilliams (a three-time ECAC champion); and Frances Childs (theQuakers’ first <strong>Penn</strong> Relays heptathlon champion). Among the morenotable athletes during Bey’s tenure were Joan PhengLaOr, whocompeted in the long jump at the 1984 Olympic Games to become theprogram’s first Olympian; Chris Lundy, who became the Quakers’ firstthree-time distance All-American in 1992; Karyn Smith, an indoor triplejump All-American in 1994 who represented the East at the OlympicSports Festival; and Julie Siebert-Johnson, a 2000 Junior National All-American in the javelin.A 1969 graduate <strong>of</strong> West Chester State, Bey was nationally ranked inthe pentathlon and competed in the Millrose Games, the AAU NationalPentathlon Championships, and the 1964 Olympic Trials.

She was a two-time All-American in crosscountry, in 1989 and 1991, and also earned firstteamHeptagonal honors in cross country (1990 and1991) with a top-five finish at the championshipmeet. In track, Lundy earned All-America in 1992in the outdoor 3,000 meters. Her three All-Americacertificates are more than any other female crosscountry/track & field athletes have won at <strong>Penn</strong>.Lundy’s name is splaered throughout the <strong>Penn</strong> track record book.In indoor, she still holds the mark in the 5,000 (16:47.43), is second in the3,000 (9:26.82), third in the mile (4:54.23) and sixth in the 1,000 (2:57.70).Outdoors, she is second in the 5,000 (16:32.63) and 3,000 (9:28.47) andninth in the 1,500 (4:34.04).Lundy has continued to run since her graduation—she was a member<strong>of</strong> the U.S. Mountain Running Team in 2005, and competed in the 2004Olympic Marathon Trials.

In 1984, O’Hernset the program mark in the indoor and outdoor800; both <strong>of</strong> those held until last year (in the case <strong>of</strong>the outdoor, barely ... as in 3/100ths <strong>of</strong> a second).In 1985, O’Hern established the <strong>Penn</strong> record inthe indoor mile; it still stands, 23 years later, and infact no one has come within three seconds <strong>of</strong> hertime. Add in the records she set in the indoor 1,000—since topped fourtimes—and the outdoor mile, and a trio <strong>of</strong> records with various relayteams, and you have yourself a Hall <strong>of</strong> Fame career. Kate emerged on thescene as a freshman in 1983, as part <strong>of</strong> <strong>Penn</strong>’s 4x800 relay team that wonHeps with a record time that was the standard in that event for sevenyears.A year later, she won the 800 at Outdoor Heps with a time thatshaered the previous conference mark by more than three seconds. Katerepeated that title in 1985, and also notched indoor 1,500 titles in 1985 and1986. A two-time captain, Kate was a member <strong>of</strong> two Outdoor Heptagonalteam champions—1985 and 1986—and the Quakers swept their Ivycompetition four other times at Heps (finishing second to Army eachtime).

Recognized by the NCAA as the oldest stadium in the nation still operating for football games, Franklin <strong>Field</strong>opened in 1895 with the first running <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Penn</strong> Relay Carnival. It remains the home <strong>of</strong> <strong>Penn</strong> track & field as well as the football, fieldhockey, sprint football, and men’s and women’s lacrosse teams. It was the site <strong>of</strong> the first stadium scoreboard (1895) and the first localcollege football telecast (Philco, Oct. 5, 1940). Franklin <strong>Field</strong>’s stands were torn down in 1922, and the first tier <strong>of</strong> the present stadiumwas rebuilt, nearly doubling the venue’s seating capacity to 54,500.

U N I V E R S I T Y O F P E N N S Y L V A N I AMaking History—<strong>Penn</strong> Eliminates LoansOver the past three years ... <strong>Penn</strong> has moved aggressively toenhance its undergraduate financial aid programs, includingthe elimination <strong>of</strong> loans for students from families withincome under $50,000 in 2006, with that threshold increasingto $60,000 in 2007.Through these efforts, the number <strong>of</strong> students aending<strong>Penn</strong> has doubled in families below this income threshold. Inaddition, the benefit <strong>of</strong> these moves has been demonstratedthrough the increase in the number <strong>of</strong> no-loan packages from31-percent to 49-percent <strong>of</strong> the grant-aided admied freshmanclass. In addition, the new policies have decreased the averagedebt at graduation from $20,927 in 2006 to $18,800 in 2007, adecrease <strong>of</strong> 10-percent.Effective for the 2009-10 academic year, astudent admied to <strong>Penn</strong> who is eligible toreceive financial aid will no longer have totake on any loans to study at <strong>Penn</strong>.With the enthusiastic support <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Penn</strong> Trustees, PresidentGutmann announced a bold new initiative to eliminate loansfor all students eligible for financial aid, regardless <strong>of</strong> familyincome. Consequently, effective for the 2009-10 academicyear, a student admied to <strong>Penn</strong> who is eligible to receivefinancial aid will no longer have to take on any loans to studyat <strong>Penn</strong>. This transformative initiative will continue <strong>Penn</strong>’scommitment to lower- and lower-middle income studentswhile also liing the burden <strong>of</strong>f <strong>of</strong> students from middle- andupper-middle income families, who typically have carried thegreatest debt from higher education.Financial AidWe urge you not to let financial concerns deter you fromapplying to <strong>Penn</strong>.

The <strong>University</strong>will finance this initiative largely through funds raisedfrom its recently launched, five-year, $3.5 billion “MakingHistory” capital campaign, which includes a $350 milliongoal for undergraduate financial aid endowment.

Theplan acknowledges the unprecedentedopportunity to transform the <strong>Penn</strong> campusin response to the acquisition <strong>of</strong> propertyalong the Schuylkill River. This campusexpansion <strong>of</strong> contiguous land will enablethe <strong>University</strong>, for the first time in history,to establish a major physical presencealong the Schuylkill River corridor, createnew gateways to the campus from the city,and establish new connections with thesurrounding communities.In terms <strong>of</strong> <strong>Penn</strong> Athletics, the planningstudy aims to create a signature new urbanpark to include sports and recreationfields east <strong>of</strong> Franklin <strong>Field</strong> on the site <strong>of</strong>the existing Bower <strong>Field</strong> and the surfaceparking areas <strong>of</strong> the postal lands. This“once in a generation” opportunity willalso enable <strong>Penn</strong> Athletics to address many<strong>of</strong> its programmatic needs, as well as keypriorities that may arise over the nextseveral years.Though still in the planning stages andsubject to change, <strong>Penn</strong> Athletics intends tocreate the Franklin <strong>Field</strong> Pavilion to houseexisting named spaces as well as some newconstruction and renovation <strong>of</strong> existingspaces. The north side <strong>of</strong> the stadium, insidethe arcades, would include the Avery BlakeLacrosse Complex, the George A.Munger Complex, a new 15,000 square footintercollegiate varsity weight room, a newrecreational fitness center to complementthe state-<strong>of</strong>-the-art Poruck Health andFitness Center built in 2003, retail space, arenovated and enhanced training room andlocker facilities. In addition, there are plansto build two synthetic turf fields and twosmaller grass fields (all for intercollegiateand recreational use), a new soball-specificstadium, outdoor tennis complex and aseasonal air structure that will serve as anindoor practice facility that can be raisedand lowered during the winter months.Another major change on the landscape<strong>of</strong> the athletics area <strong>of</strong> campus is the creation<strong>of</strong> the Palestra Green; a green quadrangle infront <strong>of</strong> the Palestra and adjacent to Franklin<strong>Field</strong> that would be part <strong>of</strong> the urban parkextending along the banks <strong>of</strong> the river. Thetennis courts, currently outside the Palestra,will be moved to a new outdoor tenniscenter on the existing Bower <strong>Field</strong>.These plans hope to provide for a series <strong>of</strong>new public gathering and circulation spacesin the Palestra and Franklin <strong>Field</strong> area thatserve to link the newly acquired property,campus and community.32<strong>Penn</strong>Athletics.comConstruction is Underway!WeissPavilionIntercollegiate VarsityWeight Room (21,000 NSF)Robert A.
