Lehigh (4-1-4, 1-0-1 PL) had six shots for the game, three coming off the foot of senior Kevin Strunk. Strunk’s best chance came with 15 minutes to go in the second half when his free kick outside of the 18-yard box was heading towards the top of the goal but Colgate (5-2-2, 0-1-1 PL) keeper Grant Reed made his lone save of the match knocking the ball over the crossbar. It was Lehigh’s only shot on goal of the match.

 

 

 

“We have to take care of the ball better when we get those chances,” he said. “We can’t be casual with our decisions in the final third, we have to sharpen up our possession. We wait for the perfect opportunity to take a shot and that doesn’t exist so we just have to do a better job with our chances.”
In the first half, both teams were quiet combining for seven shots as sophomore keeper Ciaran Nugent made two of this three saves in the opening half. Koski would like to see his team come out with a little more energy and focus in the first halves of matches, something he hasn’t seen recently.
