Mountain Hawks to face a pair of preseason top 20 foes

BETHLEHEM, Pa. – The Lehigh women's lacrosse team will face a pair of teams ranked in the Lacrosse Magazine preseason top 20 poll, which was released on Tuesday. The Mountain Hawks will play road games at No. 15 Penn State and No. 17 Florida, while also facing No. 18 Princeton in a preseason exhibition contest.

Looking to build on a strong 2010 season, which included the Patriot League Regular Season Championship, the Mountain Hawks compiled a challenging 2011 schedule, which includes a trip to No. 17 Florida on Mar. 5 and to No. 15 Penn State on Apr. 12. Lehigh begins spring competition with a Feb. 13 exhibition at Princeton.

Lehigh will also play two squads who advanced to last season's NCAA Tournament – Marist and Navy – while also facing four teams ranked in the top 30 of last year's final RPI.
