EMMITSBURG, Md. – Lehigh opened up its final weekend of non-league action with a 1-0 road win at Mount St. Mary’s, Friday afternoon at Waldron Family Stadium. Freshman Stephanie DeLuca netted the game’s only goal in the 32nd minute, as the Mountain Hawks improve to 5-2-2 on the season, while Mount St. Mary’s falls to 2-7.
“This was a good result for us, as we reach the halfway point of our season,” said Lehigh head coach Manny Oudin. “We would have liked to play a little more of our game, and we had chances to put some more goals on the board, but coming away with a win on the road is always a positive.”
DeLuca scored her first collegiate goal at the 31:41 mark after dribbling down the right side of the field and firing a shot past Mountaineer goalkeeper Anna Lebo into the far left part of the goal. Mount
