Lehigh WR Lee Kurfis was named to the watch list for the Walter Payton Award this week.  Kurfis is leading the FCS in receptions per game (10.7), receiving yards per game (155.7), as well as overall receiving yards.  Kurfis is also riding seven straight games with at least 100 receiving yards dating back to the Lafayette game last year.  The streak is going to continue, as will QB Brandon Bialkowski’s streak of six games with at least 300 passing yards.  Lehigh Offense edges out Georgetown Defense

The Hoyas do have the Patriot League’s Preseason Defensive Player of Year in Senior Linebacker Dustin Wharton, but he has been limited to four this season while battling an injury.  The Mountain Hawks are back at home and Goodman Stadium will be rocking in an exciting Patriot League matchup.  Lehigh wins against Georgetown 38-24.
