All six of those regulation goals came in the first half, so the Terriers will need to strike early if they want to find success. A key player to watch is Lehigh\u2019s junior midfielder Abbie Brown, who collected three goals and one assist in her last two games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The two teams will face off at Berylson Field at 1 p.m.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second game will take place on Monday evening against the UMass Amherst Minutewomen (5-2-0).
