Lehigh gets 1st road win
The cure for Lehigh's road woes proved to be a visit to the shores of the Chesapeake Bay.

After 11 straight losses outside of breezy Stabler Arena this season, Lehigh (7-11 overall, 2-0 Patriot) picked up its first road win of the season last night, a 71-61 win at Navy. The win ends a road losing streak of 14 games dating to last season.

The Mountain Hawks did it by combining their customary tough defense with a page from Navy's offensive playbook, knocking down 10 three-points (on 20 tries) while holding Navy to 40.8 percent shooting (20 of 49) from the field.

Kyle Neptune (17 points) had four of the Lehigh treys. Jose Olivero (17) and Marquis Hall (13) each added three. "Skinny Phil" Anderson added 10. Bryan White added 8 and pulled down 7 rebounds.

Kaleo Kina was the only guy in double figures for the Mids (10-7, 0-2). Greg Sprink, who played only 6 minutes in the first half due to foul trouble, was held to 9. It was just the third time this season Sprink failed to reach double figures.
