BETHLEHEM, Pa. – It's a big one this Saturday as Lehigh women's basketball hosts Army at 2 p.m. at Stabler Arena on Senior Day. The Mountain Hawks are 23-5 (14-2 PL), while the Black Knights are 21-5 (13-3 PL). Tickets can be purchased here or by calling 610-7LU-GAME. 

Prior to tip-off, Lehigh will honor seniors Colleen McQuillen, Meghan O'Brien, Remi Sisselman, Ella Stemmer, and Kaylee Van Eps in a pregame ceremony.

If Lehigh wins, the Mountain Hawks will capture the regular season championship for the first time since 2010 and the third time in program history. Lehigh currently sits in first place in the league, while Army is in second. The Mountain Hawks will be seeded no worse than second in the upcoming Patriot League Tournament.

Lehigh's 12-game winning streak was snapped on February 25, as the Mountain Hawks fell 80-68 to Boston University. The team struggled from beyond the arc, shooting just 3-of-23.

Four Mountain Hawks finished in double figures, with fifth-year wing Maddie Albrecht and first-year forward Belle Bramer leading the way with 14 points apiece. Junior forward Lily Fandre (11 points) and senior guard Stemmer (10 points) also reached double digits. McQuillen came close, finishing with nine points.

Saturday's game will mark the second meeting between the two teams this season. The Mountain Hawks pulled off a dominant 90-51 victory in the first meeting on January 12.

Lehigh outscored Army 23-13 in the first quarter and maintained control throughout the game. The Mountain Hawks' defense shined, limiting Army to just four points in the second quarter. Lehigh shot a season-high 57.3% from the field. Albrecht led all scorers with a game-high 24 points. Three other Mountain Hawks reached double figures, with Bramer scoring a season-high 15 points, Whitney Lind adding 13, and senior forward Meghan O'Brien chipping in 10.

The Black Knights are coming off a 75-48 win over Lafayette on February 25. Army shot 50% from the field, with Trinity Hardy and Sam Tillson both scoring 14 points to lead the team. Hardy leads Army with 13.2 points per game, followed by Reese Ericson (10.6 points per game) and Fiona Hastick (10.1 points per game).

Next up, Lehigh women's basketball will close out the regular season at Colgate on Wednesday at 6 p.m.
