On the latest episode of Mountain Hawk Talk, junior Sam Davis and first year Aiden Gonzalez from Lehigh Men's Soccer discuss their journeys to Lehigh, how they started playing soccer and their favorites memories from the sport.
They remember the transition to Lehigh University and how they balance life as a student-athlete. We dive into their past athletic experiences and their successes on and off the field. Sam goes into detail about his position on the field as a "field general" and how as a junior, his first career goals were special to him (8:23).
