The Penn women’s lacrosse team is going to the NCAA Tournament for the 13th consecutive year, the fifth-longest streak in the nation.

The Quakers were announced Sunday as an at-large team in the field of 28 and will play Georgetown (11-8) in the first round at 4 p.m. Friday on Syracuse University’s soccer field.

The two teams, both unseeded in the tournament, have already met this season, with the Quakers winning, 8-7, on March 9. Friday’s winner will go on to face fifth-seeded Syracuse on Sunday.

Penn (12-5) competed this weekend at the Ivy League Tournament. The Quakers beat No. 2 seed Dartmouth on the first day, 15-14, before losing in the championship game to No. 1 Princeton, 13-9.
