Freshman Kelliann Doherty’s (Voorhees, N.J./Eastern Regional) sixth goal of the season brought the Orange and Blue back to within 2-1, but the Bucknell women’s soccer team was unable to complete the comeback and saw its league winning streak snapped at four with a 3-1 loss to Lehigh in soggy conditions on Varsity Soccer Field this Friday evening.
