Colgate Raiders vs. Lehigh Mountain Hawks Prediction
I’m on Colgate here. I think it’s a big time revenge spot for Colgate who already lost to Lehigh this season at home outright, and Colgate’s still the class of the Patriot League despite a couple of recent stumbles. I think the Raiders are still the better team here and all in all, I look for the Raiders to get it done here. Give me Colgate.
