Defensive tackle Tom Gilmore--the league's best defensive player--anchors a defense that boasts a strong corps of linebackers, notably Gavin O'Connor and Denton Walker. Although the Quakers don't enjoy the depth they've had the past few seasons, good people in some key positions, a tough defense, and Coach Berndt's ability to motivate his team are certain to place Penn high up in the Ivy's final standings...
