Penn’s offense comes alive in 28-24 win over Lafayette

The win had plenty of offensive highlights, with senior quarterback Nick Robinson and sophomore wideout Ryan Cragun, senior tailback Karekin Brooks, and wideout Rory Starkey, and ends a four-game Quakers losing streak dating back to last season and sends them into next week’s Ivy League and home opener with Dartmouth on a winning note.

Karekin Brooks’ five brothers are all defensive line-sized guys—in his mind, he’s always the small one. In last Saturday’s opener at Delaware, Brooks, known as KK to teammates and coaches, ran 28 times for 158 yards and added three catches for 20 more, pushing him to 11th all-time in rushing, with 2,002 yards.
