But going into the home stretch of the Ivy schedule, the Crimson will have to perfect its special teams play for its final contests at Penn and against Yale at home. The Quakers’ top returner, defensive back Chris Wynn, averages about 20 punt return yards per game and 50 kick return yards per game, and Penn leads the league in both average punt return...
