Ota, MacIntyre featured on Lehigh Sports Magazine

4/21/2008 12:00:00 AM | Women's Lacrosse

As April comes to a close so too do the spring athletic seasons at Lehigh University and with the conclusion of April also comes the end of the spring season of the Lehigh Sports Magazine. This week on the Lehigh Sports Magazine television show we’re joined by the head coach of the women’s lacrosse team, Liz Brode Ota ’95. She will be joined by junior attack and finance major Sara MacIntyre. The women’s lacrosse squad is fresh off a thrilling double overtime win against Bucknell. Ota and MacIntyre will tell us all about that game as well as preview their upcoming Patriot League Championships.

                     

Also this week, head football coach Andy Coen is back in studio after his squad held their final scrimmage of the 2008 spring season. The annual Brown and White game was played Saturday afternoon in front of an energetic crowd which was treated to a great game that featured a terrific performance by the defensive units. Coach Coen will get us up to speed on his team’s progress so far this year.

 

And finally, we’re joined by softball head coach Fran Troyan and the all-time Lehigh strikeout leader, junior history major Lisa Sweeney. The pair will recap their weekend in West Point, and preview their big showdown with Colgate this weekend.

 

Also on this season finale we feature the women’s rowing team during our weekly Sport Shorts Segment. This past weekend the rowing team hosted the River Cup, which takes place on the Lehigh River.

 

For more than a decade, the half-hour show has been delivering Lehigh fans interviews with every head coach, special player appearances, highlights, and much more.  The broadcast is anchored by WFMZ sports director Troy Hein.  The Lehigh Sports Magazine can be seen on Monday night in the Lehigh Valley, Philadelphia, and western New Jersey at 8:30 p.m. on WFMZ-TV.  WFMZ is located on Service Electric Cable TV dial position 8.
