BOSTON - Following a week off from competition, the Boston University women's soccer team will return to pitch as it visits Lehigh on Saturday, Oct. 12 for a 1 p.m. rematch of last season's Patriot League Tournament title game.

TERRIER TIDBITS

BU is coming off a 0-0 double overtime draw against Loyola last Saturday, marking the fourth double overtime contest the Terriers have fared this season.
McKenna Kennedy was named the Patriot League Defensive Player of the Week after aiding the Terriers to a pair of shutouts last week.
Kennedy was the lone field player to log all 200 minutes of game action, playing a key role in limiting both the Black Knights and Greyhounds to single-digit shots.
Five of BU's last six wins have come via shutout.
Ashley Raphael leads the team in points (5) and is tied for the lead in goals (2) with Shannon Keefe.
Amanda Fay and Morgan Messner, who have rotated starts in net, each own three shutouts.

SCOUTING LEHIGH

The Mountain Hawks are off to a 1-3 start in Patriot League games, dropping their overall record to 3-5-4.
All three of Lehigh's wins have taken place at home, where it has outscored its opponents 7-1 in home victories.
Eight different players have found the back of the net for Lehigh, while Kayla Arestivo is the lone member to own two goals.
Ally Friedman and Erin Keefe, sister of Shannon Keefe, are tied for the team lead with two assists apiece.
Miranda Royds has played every minute in net and leads the Patriot League with a .855 save percentage while ranking second in shutouts (5) and saves per game (4.92).

THE SERIES

Anna Heilferty, the Patriot League Tournament MVP, netted the game-winning goal in the 73rd minute of last year's title game, guiding BU to a 1-0 victory for its fourth Patriot League championship.
BU holds the series lead at 5-0-2, with its two draws taking place in Bethlehem.
Three of BU's last four wins against the Mountain Hawks have been one-goal outcomes.
