BETHLEHEM, Pa. – The Lehigh field hockey team impressed in the classroom in the fall semester and on Wednesday, nine student-athletes were named to the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll. Senior Amanda Boyer led the way with a perfect 4.0 grade point average while two others exceeded 3.90.
 
To be eligible for the Fall Academic Honor Roll, a student-athlete must earn a 3.20 grade point average (GPA) in the fall semester and participate in one of the Patriot League's seven fall championship sports, including men's and women's cross country, field hockey, football, men's and women's soccer and volleyball.
 
A two-time LUFH Scholar-Athlete of the Year, Boyer was named an Academic All-Patriot League honoree for a third straight season this fall. The Molecular Biology major recorded a 4.0 semester GPA for the fifth time in her seven semesters. Meanwhile, junior Lenke Havas who has also been named Academic All-Patriot League in her career, posted a 3.95 in Economics. Freshman Anna Piecuch also recorded a 3.92 in the College of Arts and Sciences.

On the field, highlights were aplenty for the Mountain Hawks in 2019. Lehigh improved its final record to 7-11, including 2-4 in league play. The Mountain Hawks finished in a three-way tie for fourth place (with Holy Cross and Boston University), but the Crusaders won the tiebreaker. Fourth was Lehigh's best finish since the expansion of the Patriot League to seven teams (with the addition of Boston University). Along with their best start since 1983 and best overall record since 2007, the Mountain Hawks' 35 goals were also their most since 2007 while their 43 goals allowed were fewest since 2003. Lehigh's goal differential (-8) was also its best since 2004.
