2026 Tournament PreviewUnder new coach Fran McCaffery, Penn is in the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2018 after knocking off regular-season champ Yale in OT in the Ivy League tournament championship. The bid-clinching run was made more impressive because the Quakers did it without leading-scorer Ethan Roberts (16.9 ppg, 3.9 rpg), who missed the tournament with a concussion. Roberts is expected to be ready for the Big Dance. The hero was all-conference first-teamer TJ Power (15.8 ppg, 7.6 rpg) -- formerly of Duke and Virginia -- who scored 44 points. Penn lives on the three-point line, shooting 38.1 percent from distance (16th) with three starters, including Roberts and Power, shooting at least 38 percent. Inside the arc is another story, as the Quakers convert only 46.3 percent (344th). They also don't defend the paint particularly well, ranking 305th against two-point shooting. The Quakers at least have momentum, closing the year on a 9-1 run, and if the outside shooting holds, an upset is possible.
