BETHLEHEM, Pa. - The Lehigh women's soccer will wrap up the regular season this Saturday when it hosts Holy Cross at 1 p.m. It will be Senior Day as Alyssa Riporti, Amanda Stratton, Becca Sherry, Adrian Vitello, Lexi Chang and Grace Correll will be recognized prior to opening kickoff. Saturday's game could prove important as the Mountain Hawks are vying for a home game in the Patriot League Quarterfinals for a second straight season.
 
Lehigh has already clinched its second straight league tournament berth, but would earn the No. 4 seed and a quarterfinal home game with a win and Boston University loss vs. Colgate (also 1 p.m. on Saturday). Depending on Saturday's results, the Mountain Hawks will either host Boston University, travel to Boston or travel to Colgate in the Patriot League Quarterfinals.
 
Lehigh is coming off a 2-0 win over Loyola last Saturday. Freshman Lisa Kestelboym opened the scoring in the 70th minute while sophomore Maggie Wadsworth added an insurance goal in the 89th minute, her third straight game with a goal. Wadsworth also assisted on Kestelboym's goal, having a hand in all three Mountain Hawk goals for the week (also scoring at Bucknell last Wednesday). Defensively, Lehigh pitched its eighth shutout of the season (and 20th since the beginning of last year). The Mountain Hawks' defense stands first in the lead, allowing just 0.69 goals per game.
 
Holy Cross enters the weekend with a 4-8-4 record, 2-3-3 in Patriot League play. The Crusaders stand in sixth place in the league standings and need a win on Saturday to guarantee a postseason berth. Most recently, Holy Cross earned a 1-0 double overtime win over Army West Point. Ang Seslija leads the Crusaders in scoring with four goals and eight points while Allie Neumann had five points (two goals, one assist). Caroline Cashion has played every minute in goal, recording a 1.05 goals against average and 0.802 save percentage.
 
The Crusaders lead the all-time series with Lehigh, 13-10-2, but the Mountain Hawks are 4-1-1 over the last six meetings. Last year, Lehigh opened Patriot League play with a 1-0 road victory, behind a goal from Sidonie Warnecker.
 
Following Saturday's game, Lehigh will look ahead to the Patriot League Quarterfinals, which are set for Tuesday, Oct. 31.
