Women’s basketball coach Pat Knapp is doing his best Anthony Smith.

As reported in today’s DP, the Penn coach said that his team would end its losing streak “next game,” which is quite the statement given that streak is ten games long.

Knapp’s team hasn’t won since eeking out a win over Rider on Nov. 28, and in that time the losses have come in all shapes and sized. Villanova held the Quakers to a measly 26 points; Eastern Kentucky put up 100 on them. Junior Kelly Scott, who should be a top option, has scored 5, 15, 15 and 8 points in her four games since returning from injury, a boost but nothing earthshaking.

Harvard, which Penn faces on Feb. 1, is one of the better teams in the Ivy League with a 7-8 mark. Poster-board material, anyone?
