spring'24 exams

Penn Relays - wow!

NOTE: with exams this week, wanted to get practice schedule up asap.  Will update with workouts.  Obviously we want to finish the academic year strong.  Manage your time wisely.  Sleep as much as you can.  Plan meals, do not skip!  If you have conflicts with practice times, communicate with coaches.  Plan your week.  Once exams are over, plan for any move-out needs.  We are working to finalize ACC roster and will forward that information as soon as we can.
