What a fun night, and a great game! Many thanks to the Penn Women’s Basketball Team team on hosting a DPS night at the Palestra.
It was fantastic to have Penn Police, Allied security, PennComm, and our other DPS departments so well represented. Many thanks to our Special Services Department for arranging a fun swag table and engaging the attendees.
We look forward to attending future games!
