PHILADELPHIA – The Dragons continued their strong play with a 2-1 victory against Penn on Sunday, 2-1. It was the Dragons second straight win as they improved to 4-3 this season. After three scoreless quarters, the offenses got going in the fourth. Drexel scored back-to-back goals and seemed to be in full control with eight minutes to go. However, a quick score with six minutes left by Penn set up a chaotic finish. Drexel was able to hold on and defeat their University City rivals in a non-conferece contest at Buckley Field.
