West Point, N.Y. - Bucknell faced their third Patriot League opponent, Army, Saturday and fell 1-0. Senior goalkeeper, Laurie Purse secured four saves for the day, while the Bison defense captured one save.
During the evening of rain showers, the Bison held the Black Knights through the first half of the game. Bucknell lost Meghan Ferris, a Bison starter, to an injury during the first half of play.
The Bison returned to the wet field, after halftime, to hold the Black Knights until Army's Delaney Brown headed the ball to Leigh Kosco who scored their game-winning goal in the 61st minute of the game.
Bucknell's Annie Greenspun had an impressive head shot towards Army's goal with under six minutes left in the game, but was saved by the Black Knights goalkeeper.
Bucknell will face Patriot League rival, Lehigh, Wednesday, Oct. 16 in Bethlehem, Pa. The Bison finish this weekend with a 5-6-1 overall record and 0-3 in the conference.
