LEWISBURG, Pa. – Playing in its final tune-up before next weekend's Patriot League Championship, the Lehigh men's golf team fell to Bucknell in play-six, score-four stroke play Saturday by a 289-294 score at the Bucknell Golf Club.
 
The sophomore trio of David Hurly, Joey Dotta and Sam Barton led the way for the Mountain Hawks, as all three shot three over par 73 on the par 70 course, but Bucknell had three players shoot 72 and two others shoot 73 to claim the victory.
 
Hurly, Dotta and Barton were part of a five-way tie for fourth place. Senior Owen Quinn and freshmen AJ Gilpin and Edmund Broderick all shot 75 and tied for ninth place. Gilpin competed as an individual for the Mountain Hawks. Freshman Marco Arosemena was Lehigh's sixth scoring player and carded a 77.
 
Quinn and Barton both netted eagles in their round, while Dotta made a team-high three birdies and Hurly carded 13 pars, tops in the field.
 
Chris Tanabe, Jackson Bussell and Blake Wisdom all shot two over par 72 to lead Bucknell.
 
Next up for the Mountain Hawks is the Patriot League Championship, May 1-2 at the Naval Academy Golf Club in Annapolis, Md.
