Quakers Head Coach Kelly Greenberg had it pretty easy during her first season at the helm last year.

Penn averaged a school-record 76 points a game and accumulated an impressive 18-10 (9-5 Ivy) record last season under Greenberg's guidance, finishing second in the Ivies.

Greenberg, however, should have thanked All-American Dana Caramanico for such a great welcome into the league.

Caramanico, who has already broken Penn's career scoring record, will attempt this season to break the record of Allison Feaster '98. During her first three years at Penn, Caramanico has averaged 22. 6 points and 11.6 rebounds per game, and is known as one of the most intimidating players in the league.

Last year, Caramanico made a national name for herself by averaging 24.8 points per game, good for second in the nation. Because of her uncanny ability to create her own shot, opponents must defend her both in the lane and on the perimeter.

Juniors Julie Epton, who averaged nearly 10 points and six rebounds per game last season, and Jessica Allen will bolster the frontcourt alongside Caramanico.
