Penn (0-1), which is receiving votes in the United Soccer Coaches Poll, opened up its season Friday night with a 2-1 loss at Fordham. All the scoring came in the first 23 minutes of the contest with the Rams snapping a 1-1 tie on a penalty kick goal. Stas Korzeniowski had the Quakers goal.

This will be Hofstra's first-ever meeting with Penn.
