of nine Bucknell players to hit the back of the net in the Bison^Òs 15-6
Patriot League victory over Lehigh Saturday at Christy Mathewson-Memorial
Stadium.
Patrick Christensen also scored three goals for Bucknell, which improved
to 4-4 overall and 2-1 in the Patriot League. Lehigh (0-7, 0-2) received
a pair of goals from Greg Morin and two assists from Mike Osborne.
Bucknell junior Ryan Goodman dominated at the faceoff X. He won 15 of 21
and Kevin McCarthy took 2 of 4 to help the Bison control time of
possession throughout the day. Goodman led all players with six ground
balls.
After David Gaunt staked Lehigh to a 1-0 lead six minutes into the
contest, Bucknell rebounded from a turnover-filled start to take control
with a 4-goal run. Steve Case, one of four freshmen to score goals for
the Bison, tied it at 1-all less than a minute after the Gaunt goal.
Patrick Christensen scored a man-up goal with 6:54 left in the period to
give Bucknell the lead for good.
Brian Gargan and Fetchet closed out the Bison run before Andrew Lucas
scored on a man advantage early in the second period to make it a 4-2
contest. Bucknell stretched its lead with a lightning-quick two-goal
strike. John Salvesen scored off a Patrick O^ÒHearn feed with 9:27 left
in the first half, then just six seconds later Case scooped a ground ball
off the draw, sprinted to the goal and scored past Lehigh goalie Tom
Ellis.
Another Christensen EMO goal 6:15 before halftime gave the Bison a 7-3
lead at intermission.
Bucknell scored the first three goals of the second half, with Gargan,
Fetchet and Kirk Klett all tallying unassisted goals. Lehigh pulled
within 11-6 with a 3-1 run over a span of only 1:44. Morin scored twice
during that spurt, but his goal off a Stephen Marino assist with 5:24
left in the third quarter would be the Mountain Hawks final tally of the
day.
Christensen and Clayton Millice closed out Bucknell^Òs six-goal third
period ^Ö it was the first career goal for Millice ^Ö and Fetchet and
Chris Cara tallied the only two goals of the fourth. Lehigh blanketed
Cara all day long, holding the nation^Òs leading scorer to just a goal
and an assist for a season-low two points, but Cara had plenty of help.
Bucknell outshot Lehigh 39-29 and held a 41-21 edge in ground balls. The
Bison converted 3 of 5 extra-man chances, while the Mountain Hawks were 1
of 4.
Matt Baran made six saves in goal for the Herd, and backup Mark Davis
stopped one shot over the final 6:09. Ellis had 12 saves for Lehigh
before giving way to Dusty Granet in the fourth quarter.
Bucknell returns to action next Saturday at Patriot League rival Hobart
at 1 p.m.
