About Penn
The Quakers, who on Saturday will be playing their first game in 13 days, have posted a 4-1 record this season. Included on the team's ledger are wins over Lafayette and Colorado State (Navy lost in double overtime to the Rams and will face Lafayette during the Patriot League season).

Penn compiled a 21-9 record last season and placed second in the Ivy league with an 11-3 record. The Quakers were predicted to finish second in the Ivy league again this year.

The Series
Navy holds a 5-3 edge in the all-time series with Penn. The Quakers won the most recent game played between the teams, a 60-51 decision one year ago in Annapolis, and has won two of the prior three games that have been played in Philadelphia.

Saturday's game is the first at The Palestra since the 2008-09 season.

Navy Now Part of NCAA History
Each of Navy's last four games â€"â€" played over a nine-day span and including two double overtime games â€"â€" have been extended into overtime. This stretch has tied the NCAA record for the most consecutive overtime games played by a team.

The Mids share the record with Wisconsin, which played four-straight overtime games â€"â€" over 15 days, none of which went past a first overtime period â€"â€" in 1999.
