BETHLEHEM, Pa. -- Princeton goalkeeper Alyssa Pont and the Tiger defense made it three straight shutouts, but the Tiger offense got the same treatment from Lehigh at the other end in a 0-0 tie Wednesday night.
It was Princeton's fifth shutout of the season, all in the last seven games. And while the Tigers extended their unbeaten streak to three games, Lehigh held off a loss to Princeton for the first time in the series' 15 games dating back to 1980. Princeton is now 14-0-1 against the Mountain Hawks while still allowing only one goal all-time in the series, in 1994.
Lehigh outshot Princeton 14-10 with Lauren Whatley, who had game-winning goals in each of Princeton's last two games, leading the team with four shots. Jen Hoy had three attempts for the Tigers, while Lehigh forced Pont to make five saves to keep the shutout.
The Tigers will look to continue their shutout streak, which currently stands at 272:08, at home against Columbia in a 1 p.m. game Saturday.
