The loss snaps a two-game win streak for the Mountain Hawks, as they drop their eighth straight contest to Bucknell dating back to the 2017-18 season.
Despite the defeat, the Mountain Hawks got a solid performance out of junior forward Emma Grothaus, returning from a facial injury suffered two weeks ago at Sojka. She scored a team-high 16 points with a trio of 3-pointers along with six rebounds in the loss. Junior guard Clair Steele scored 13 with three assists, while freshman guard Mackenzie Kramer had 10 points and eight boards, along with three assists.
Though not having the lead throughout the first quarter or the game in its entirety, the Mountain Hawks still managed on keeping the deficit at just three points at the end of the first stanza following a Mary Clougherty 3-point jumper, trailing 18-15 at the end of the first 10 minutes.
In the second, as the Bison got their lead back out to seven points early on, Steele sparked Lehigh back within three after four points off two free throws and a jumper. Bucknell went on an 8-0 push at the five minute mark to take an 11-point lead, getting it out to as many as 13 points with 3:05 to go. Fortunately for Lehigh, a 7-0 run to close the quarter had the Bucknell lead down to just six points, 37-31.
After struggling through most of the first quarter shooting the ball, missing eight of its first nine shots to open the contest, Lehigh shot well enough to stay within striking distance in the second, shooting 55.6 percent, including a perfect 5-for-5 from the charity stripe.
The Bison scored right away coming out of the locker room, leading by eight points, but Clougherty and Megan Walker got the deficit back to six on two occasions in the next minute or so, trading baskets with Bucknell. A 3-pointer by Grothaus with 3:39 left to play in the third quarter capped an 8-4 run for the Mountain Hawks, now down by six points, 50-44. After Taylor O’Brien converted on a 3-point play, Steele answered back with a 3-point to cut the deficit back to six points, but was met with a 3-pointer by Tai Johnson for the Bison, upping the lead back to nine with 37 seconds left.
Steele hit two foul shots with six seconds on the clock to pull Lehigh within seven, down 56-49 heading into the final frame.
The difference for the Mountain Hawks in the third quarter was the 3-point shooting, going 50 percent (4-for-8) from beyond-the-arc and holding the Bison to just 20 percent (1-for-5) from downtown in that 10-minute period.
Bucknell didn’t miss a beat opening up the fourth quarter on a 7-2 push to lead by 12 points with 6:41 remaining. A jumper by O’Brien in the paint with 4:24 to go had the Bison’s lead up to 17 points, on a 13-3 push to open the quarter. Kramer had the Mountain Hawks within 12 points with 2:54 to play, but the Bison got the lead back out to 17 with 2:01 to play, eventually taking the 12-point victory at home to get to 7-0 on the season.
For Lehigh, three players scored in double-figures with Grothaus (16), Steele (13) and Kramer (10), while Clougherty and Frannie Hottinger each scored eight points each.
As a team, the Mountain Hawks registered 15 assists on 21 baskets with three players notching a trio of dimes led by Kramer, Hottinger and Steele.
Lehigh shot 37.5 percent (21-for-56) from the field and just 32.1 percent (9-for-28) from beyond-the-arc, while shooting 76.5 percent (13-for-17) as a team from the foul line.
Bucknell shot 47 percent (31-for-66) from the field and 35.7 percent (5-for-14) from the 3-point line, going 75 percent (9-for-12) from the free throw line.
The Mountain Hawks’ bench led the way 28-16 over the Bison’s, while 46 of Bucknell’s 76 points were in the paint. The Bison led the entirety of the 40 minute contest.

SUE TROYAN Head Coach - 26th Season Lehigh head women’s basketball coach Sue Troyan is certainly no stranger to winning. Entering her 26th season in 2020-21 with a career record of 401-344, and a 200-166 mark in Patriot League play, she has helped lead the Mountain Hawks to three Patriot League Championships and three NCAA Tournament appearances.
The Mountain Hawks have made it to the Patriot League semifinals in 10 of the last 14 seasons, while making four appearances in the finals and capturing two league titles during that stretch. Lehigh once again reached the semifinal round in the 2019-20 season, earning the six seed after a 19-11 overall record and a 10-8 mark in Patriot League play. The Mountain Hawks took down Colgate in the quarterfinal round for the second straight year. The sudden COVID-19 pandemic ended the season premature- ly despite Lehigh making the semifinal round for the second consecutive year. Camryn Buhr earned her way to a Second Team All-Patriot League selection, her third straight appearance on an all-league squad. Under Troyan, Buhr and Hannah Hedstrom were Academic All-Patriot League selections, while the latter was named a CoSIDA Academic All-District 2 selection for the second year in a row. During the 2018-19 season, the Mountain Hawks made their way back to the Patriot League semifinals under Troyan’s direction, and at 21-10 overall and 12-6 in Patriot League play, finished with the team’s first 20-win season since 2010-11 and finished in third place, the team’s highest standing since the 2011-12 campaign.
The 2017-18 team returned to the Patriot League quarterfinals, behind a pair of All-Patriot League selec- tions in third team honoree Camryn Buhr and second team selection Quinci Mann, who graduated as the program’s sixth all-time leading scorer, and third on the school’s all-time three-point list.
The 2015-16 team finished 18-13 overall and 10-8 in Patriot League play. Four Mountain Hawks earned All-League honors, including standout Lexi Martins who was named the Patriot League Scholar-Athlete of the Year and finished as the nation’s leader in double-doubles and ranked third in the country in rebounding.
Under Troyan’s guidance in 2014-15, the Mountain Hawks made their first Patriot League Championship appearance since 2010. Lehigh finished the season with a 19-11 overall record and a 9-9 league mark. The Mountain Hawks earned the six seed in the Patriot League Tournament and picked up road wins at No. 3 Holy Cross and No. 2 Army to advance to the championship. Four Mountain Hawks garnered All-Patriot League honors, while Lehigh was also represented on the Academic All-League team and landed a league-best number of players on the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll.
In 2010-11, Troyan led the Mountain Hawks to their third-straight Patriot League regular season title and Lehigh’s third-straight 20-win season, the most consecutive 20-win seasons in program history. The Mountain Hawks went 21-11 which included a WNIT berth for their third straight postseason appearance.
In the previous two seasons, Troyan led Lehigh to a combined 55-11 (25-3 PL) record which included a pair of Patriot League Championships and NCAA Tournament berths.
The 2009-10 campaign brought Troyan’s third Patriot League title, the team’s second in a row, and second-ever Patriot League regular season title with a league record of 13-1, earning the Mountain Hawks the top seed in the tournament. Lehigh advanced to their third NCAA Tournament in school history, finishing the season with a 29-4 record. For the second season, Lehigh went undefeated at home, breaking the record set the previous year for most wins in a season (29) and league wins (13).
In 2009, Troyan won her second Patriot League title, capping off a historic season in which the Mountain Hawks broke school records in wins (26), league wins (12) and home wins (17). Lehigh won its first-ever Patriot League regular season title by rolling through the league with a 12-2 record to earn the top seed in the tournament. The Mountain Hawks completed their undefeated season at home by winning three tournament games at Stabler Arena to advance to their second NCAA Tournament in school history. Lehigh finished the season with a 26-7 record, the best in Troyan’s tenure with the program, and the Lehigh head coach took home her second Patriot League Coach of the Year award.
In the 2004-05 season, Troyan led the team to 18 regular season wins – the second most in her tenure–and became the first Lehigh head coach to be named the Patriot League Coach of the Year. The Mountain Hawks have won ten plus games in all fourteen of Troyan’s seasons at the helm. She has guided her troops to three Patriot League final appearancses, as well as two berths in the NCAA Tournament (1997 and 2009). In 2001-02, Troyan passed Muffet McGraw as Lehigh Sports Communications | 641 Taylor Street, Bethlehem, Pa. | Phone 610-758-3174 | www.lehighsports.com 2020-21 LEHIGH WOMEN’S BASKETBALL | GAME 9: BUCKNELL | PAGE 10 the all-time victories leader in Lehigh women’s basketball history and has surpassed 200 career wins.
