WASHINGTON - The Lehigh women's soccer team picked up three points in the league with a 4-1 win over American on Sunday afternoon.

"It's always great to get a win in the Patriot League on the road against a tough opponent," said head coach Lauren Calabrese. "Today, we showed that there are multiple people on our team who can score goals."

The four-goal effort was spurred by sophomore Sophia Lis, senior Ava Schaller, junior Faith Dobosiewicz and first-year Mia Tuckwood who scored the first of her career. The Mountain Hawks tied their season-high (4) in goals that was set in the 4-2 win over St. John's on September 9.

Lehigh jumped out in front early, with Lis netting the first goal in the 17th minute. Schaller struck in the 22nd minute giving Lehigh a 2-0 lead that carried into intermission.

In the 80th minute, Tuckwood connected with a header on a free-kick by senior Emma Roesing to tally her first collegiate goal and give Lehigh a 3-0 lead.

American got on the board in the 82nd minute, as Lailah Stewart decreased the Mountain Hawk lead to 3-1.

Dobosiewicz scored her fourth of the season in the 85th minute to solidify the 4-1 victory.

Sophomore goalkeeper Maggie Ousouljoglou played all 90 minutes in net, making no saves. American's Julia Kato picked up six saves on the afternoon.

Lehigh outshot the Eagles 13-6, with a 10-2 advantage in the opening 45. The Mountain Hawks also out-cornered American 11-4 in the game.

Lehigh (6-4-4, 3-3-1) returns home next Saturday at 2 p.m. to host Loyola at the Ulrich Sports Complex.
