2022 Lehigh Mountain Hawks football team

The Mountain Hawks, led by fourth-year head coach Tom Gilmore, played their home games at Goodman Stadium.

Tom Gilmore credited the win to the Mountain Hawks' running backs, senior Zaythan Hill, sophomore Gaige Garcia, and junior Jack DiPietro, who ran for a combined 169 yards and two rushing touchdowns.

In the opening series, quarterback Dante Perri was sacked three times, and throughout the first quarter the Mountain Hawks pass-first offense couldn't score, falling behind the Hoyas 0–10.

However, during the second quarter, Hill had a 70-yard run and scored off a one-yard, fourth down play followed next drive by a 5-yard passing touchdown from Perri to junior wide receiver Eric Johnson to go into the locker room up 14–13.

Lehigh opened the second half with a 25-yard rushing touchdown from Garcia and stopped the Hoyas on three fourth downs to come away with a win.

Lehigh's Goodman stadium was filled for parents weekend, with most of the school, and their families, coming to see Mountain Hawks fail to stop Richmond on any drive.

Lehigh's sole score came at the start of the second half with a one-play 77 yard drive and rushing touchdown from Zaythan Hill, but saw a missed extra point.

After trading field goals, Lehigh's defense forced a fumble, which led to a 13-yard touchdown run from Gaige Garcia ending the half up 15-10.

Bucknell tied the game early in the fourth quarter and the next Lehigh drive ended with a one-yard Gaige Garcia rushing touchdown.

Holy Cross took a 21-7 lead into the locker room but their first play of the second half was an interception by Lehigh's Sophomore defensive back Logan Jones.

Lehigh's last significant drive ended after the Mountain Hawks failed to convert a 4th-and-1 on the goal line to cut into the 35-14 deficit.

Holy Cross finished with 338 rushing yards, compared to 81 for the Mountain Hawks, and the win allowed the Crusaders to clinch their fourth Patriot League title in a row.

The scoring stalled at 26-21 Colgate until 3:58 in the fourth quarter when running back Jack DiPietro broke multiple tackles en route to a 17 yard touchdown, giving Lehigh its first lead of the game.

After a pair of first downs, Lehigh's initial drive stalled out and was forced to punt allowing Lafaytte to score the first points of the game off a 71-yard run.

The Leopards extended their lead with a defensive touchdown, as senior linebacker Billy Shaeffer intercepted Perri and took it 50 yards for a pick-six.

Lafayette punter Jakob Tresik ran out of the back of the endzone to run out the clock, resulting in a safety and a final score of 14-11.
