NOV 24 IVY LEAGUE SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Santiago Sturla, Penn,...With the University of Pennsylvania football team's 2025 season finished, senior punter Santiago Sturla was named Ivy League Special Teams Player of the Week on Monday afternoon. The honor is Penn's ninth of the season and the first of Sturla's career. It's the fifth Special Teams Player of the Week honor the Quakers claimed this year, tying a program record set in 2008. Sturla was excellent in the punting game as Penn took down Princeton, 17-6, Saturday at Franklin Field. He punted four times for 131 yards, had a long of 40 yards, and had two punts land inside the 20-yard line. Most notably, none of Sturla's punts were returned which adds to a successful season for punt defense. Penn allowed just three punts for -12 yards all season long, the first team in FCS history to allow negative yardage throughout a year. - Ivy League Football

NOV 3 IVY LEAGUE SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Jayden Drayton, Penn,...Recognized for his effort on special teams that helped the University of Pennsylvania football team get past Brown on Friday night, Jayden Drayton was named Ivy League Special Teams Player of the Week on Monday, the conference office announced. The honor is Penn's eighth of the season, claiming at least one award in six of the seven weeks so far. Drayton is earning an Ivy weekly award for the first time in his career. This is also the fourth time a Quaker has claimed Special Teams Player of the Week this season, the most honorees since a program-record five in 2008. After a 54-yard kickoff return, Drayton was instrumental in Penn scoring its fourth touchdown of the night which put the Quakers up 28-14 midway through the third quarter. On defense, Drayton had six total tackles and a pass breakup. - Ivy League Football

OCT 6 IVY LEAGUE SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Julien Stokes, Penn,...Stokes continues to dominant and showcase why he's in the conversation as the best return specialist in the nation, FCS or FBS. He ran back a 65-yard punt return midway through the fourth quarter that gave Penn a short field, allowing it to put the game out of reach. Stokes also had three kick returns for 76 yards, which included a 34-yarder that also led to points. He finished with 141 total return yards and has 100+ total return yards in three consecutive games.

Stokes is the nation's leader (FCS and FBS) in all-purpose yards per game (195.0) by a very healthy margin and has nine kick returns for 269 yards and five punt returns for 147 yards and a TD, totaling 416 total yards. Entering Week 4 with 1,115 career kick return yards, he's now 34 yards from passing Mark Fabish '96 (1,148) for second all-time and 122 from the record, currently held by Chris Wynn '09 (1,236). - Pennsylvania Football

SEPT 22 IVY LEAGUE SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Julien Stokes, Penn,...For the second consecutive week, senior return specialist Julien Stokes had himself a heck of an afternoon on special teams for the University of Pennsylvania football team and earned himself Ivy League Special Teams Player of the Week for the second time this season, announced by the Ivy League office on Monday afternoon. He's just the 11th player in program history to earn an Ivy weekly award in back-to-back weeks and the first on special teams.

At Lehigh on Saturday, Stokes returned four kicks for 133 yards, including a 60-yarder that set up a go-ahead touchdown early in the third quarter. He now has six kick returns for 193 yards to begin the 2025 season to go along with his four punt returns for 82 yards and a score. The Newbury Park, Calif. native enters the third week of the regular season quite literally the best (statistically) return specialist in NCAA FCS football, ranking first in both punt returns (20.5 yards per attempt) and all-purpose yards (206.5). Additionally, Stokes ranks eighth in kickoff return yards per attempt (32.2). - Penn Football

It was Penn's first game-winning field goal since Daniel Karrash—also on his first career attempt—hit a 22-yarder with two seconds remaining to stun Brown at Franklin Field in 2019. - Penn Football

He also returned two kickoffs for 60 yards and finished with 131 total return yards for the contest. It was Penn's first punt return TD since Isaiah Malcome vs. Delaware in 2019 and the first return touchdown of any kind since Stokes' 97-yard kickoff return at Brown in 2022. Stokes currently leads FCS football in punt return yards per attempt at 23.7. - Penn Football

Sayin, who connected with Sterling Stokes for a 47-yard score to open the scoring, found Joshua Casilli for 38 yards to make it 28-7 early in the third.

Jonathan Mulatu went over left tackle for a 1-yard touchdown with 20 seconds left to lift Penn to a 20-13 win over Yale on Saturday. The Quakers (6-0, 3-0 Ivy League), off to their best start since the undefeated 2003 team won 10 games, chewed up almost five minutes in taking 10 plays to march 54 yards. The Bulldogs (4-2, 2-1) had gambled on fourth-and-3 at the Penn 40 but Joey Slackman and Micah Morris combined to sack Nolan Grooms. Aidan Sayin completed 28 of 43 passes for 298 yards with Rory Starkey catching a career-high nine for 86 yards and 3-yard touchdown 14 seconds before halftime that tied the score at 10. The second half kickoff was delayed by weather. After the delay the Quakers went 72 yards for the go-ahead field goal but Yale answered with a field goal with 9:21 left. Joshua Pitsenberger ran for 89 yards and the Yale TD. - Pennsylvania/AP College Football

Aidan Sayin threw for three touchdowns and 299 yards and Pennsylvania was never threatened in a 34-14 win over Columbia on Saturday. The Quakers (5-0, 2-0 Ivy League) have won their first five games for the first time since their historic 2003 team went 10-0 and earned a 13th league title. The Quakers defense got Penn its first touchdown when 285-pound defensive tackle Micah Morris intercepted Joe Green at Columbia's 27 and rambled his way into the end zone for a 10-0 lead to close the first quarter.

On the Lions' next drive, Ryan Young lost the ball at his own 13 and Penn's Kendren Smith recovered it. Sayin threw a 6-yard scoring pass to Julien Stokes five plays later. Columbia responded on the following drive when Green threw a 58-yard pass to Bryson Canty to get to the Quakers' 17. However, Smith intercepted Green in the end zone the following play. Later, Sayin threw a 42-yard scoring pass to Joshua Casilli for a 24-0 lead with 3:34 before halftime. In relief of Green, Caden Bell threw for 196 yards and two touchdowns for Columbia (3-2, 0-2). Penn has claimed eight of the last 11 matchups and leads the all-time series 76-24-1, including a 46-5 record at Franklin Field. - AP College Football

Aiden Sayin threw four touchdown passes and ran for a score and Pennsylvania pulled away in the third quarter to post a 59-28 victory over Georgetown on Saturday. Sayin connected with Malone Howley for a 9-yard touchdown before hitting Justin Cayenne for a 26-yard score and Pennsylvania (4-0) grabbed a 17-7 lead after one quarter. Sayin and Sterling Stokes hooked up for a 7-yard touchdown to push the Quakers' lead to 24-7 just 5 seconds into the second quarter. Pierce Holley threw a 14-yard touchdown pass to Dorrien Moultrie to get Georgetown (1-5) within 10 points at halftime and Mason Gudger opened the second half with a 94-yard kickoff-return touchdown to pull the Hoyas within 24-21. From there, Trey Flowers had touchdown runs of 1 and 38 yards and Sayin had a 2-yard touchdown run and a 23-yard scoring strike to Rory Starkey Jr. as Penn took a 52-28 lead into the final quarter. Tysen Comizio's 3-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter capped the scoring. - AP College Football
