BETHLEHEM, Pa. – The Lehigh men's soccer team looks to pick up crucial points in the Patriot League standings Saturday night at 7 p.m. when the Mountain Hawks welcome Army to the Ulrich Sports Complex. The program's four seniors, Ali Famili, Ciaran Nugent, Matt Shreiner and Brian Suchoski will be honored at halftime on Senior Night. The game can be viewed free of charge on the Patriot League Network.
 
General Admission tickets will cost $5 and students, faculty and staff will receive free admission with a Lehigh ID. The Goodman Bus Service will depart the Dialogue Center on Taylor Street 45 and 15 minutes prior to game time to transport students to the game and return post-game.
 
Lehigh enters Saturday's contest in a five-way tie for fifth place in the Patriot League with a 2-3 record and six points to go along with a 7-7 overall mark. The Mountain Hawks are coming off a big 4-0 win over non-league opponent Fairleigh Dickinson Tuesday night at the Ulrich Sports Complex. After struggling to score goals in a four-game skid, Lehigh's offense came to life while the defense limited FDU to just two shots. Sophomore Gianfranco Giammatteo came off the bench to net two goals while freshman Doyle Tuvesson and junior Kyle Chin tallied a goal each. Freshman keeper Joe Bogan wasn't forced to make any saves, but made a few key defensive plays in his second collegiate game. The four goals marked Lehigh's highest offensive effort since Oct. 22, 2011 when the Mountain Hawks tallied four at Holy Cross. The win was also Lehigh's largest margin of victory since a 5-1 win at Delaware on Sept. 15, 2009.
 
Junior Jamie Luchini has led Lehigh offensively this season with 12 points behind four goals and four assists. Tuvesson follows with four goals and two assists, good for ten points, while five other Mountain Hawks have also scored goals. Senior keeper Ciaran Nugent has spent a majority of the time in goal, tallying 44 saves, a .733 save percentage and 1.30 GAA.
 
The Black Knights are in a two-way tie for third place in the Patriot League with seven points and a 2-2-1 Patriot League record that is part of a 5-5-4 overall mark. After starting 0-2-0 in conference play, the Black Knights earned 2-1 wins over Colgate (10/8) and Loyola (10/11) before playing to a 0-0 draw at American (10/18). Army is coming off a 1-0 setback at Rutgers on Tuesday in the team's final non-league match of the season.
 
The Black Knights feature a balanced attack as nine different players have scored goals this season. Sophomore Nick Williams and freshman Mario Da Silva lead Army with two goals apiece. Senior keeper Winston Boldt leads the Patriot League in shutouts with six clean sheets so far this season.
 
Army leads the all-time series between the two squads with a record of 20-18-6 but the Mountain Hawks are 14-1-2 in their last 17 matchups with the Black Knights dating back to 1997. Army captured a 1-0 win in last season's meeting as a goal from Williams in the 58th minute proved to be the game winner.
 
Following Saturday's Senior Night game, the Mountain Hawks face a tough Navy squad Wednesday night in the final regular-season home game at the Ulrich Sports Complex. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. and free video will be available via the Patriot League Network.
