In addition to the win over Mount St. Mary's, Lehigh has also captured victories over Delaware (7-0), Saint Francis (Pa.) (5-2) and Drexel (4-3) this season.
Kochman, the reigning Patriot League Player of the Week, is 5-0 in doubles play while playing alongside junior Graham Lehman and senior Ricardo Prince. Kochman has also secured two victories at the top flight of singles. Petersen has gone 5-0 in singles action to lead the Mountain Hawks.
Muhlenberg is 1-0 this season after capturing a 9-0 win over Rutgers-Camden Sunday in the Mules' season opener. Kutztown will be making its spring debut when the Golden Bears travel to Bethlehem.
Following Saturday's matches, Lehigh will remain home to host Saint Joseph's and Rider next weekend.
