Women's soccer rendered scoreless in Lehigh loss

The women’s soccer team fell to Lehigh 2-0 Sunday afternoon at the Higgins Soccer Complex. The Wildcats, now 1-6, struggled to find the back of the net with 18 shots, nine of which were on goal.

Junior Adrian Vitello’s penalty kick was saved by senior goalkeeper Emmalee Meyer, but a deflection off of Meyer’s foot gave Vitello a second chance to sink Lehigh’s first goal in the 30th minute.

The Mountain Hawks then secured their victory when freshman Maggie Wadsworth broke away from her defender and sunk a high right corner shot with just over a minute left in the game.
