Lehigh was co-champion of the Patriot League, but lost in the first round of the Division I-AA national playoffs.

In their sixth year under head coach Kevin Higgins, the Mountain Hawks compiled a 10–2 record.[1] Ian Eason, Kevin Joseph, Brett Snyder and Phil Stambaugh were the team captains.[2]

The Mountain Hawks outscored opponents 478 to 220. Lehigh's 5–1 conference record tied for best in the seven-team Patriot League standings.[3] The co-championship represented Lehigh's first back-to-back Patriot title, and its fourth first-place finish of the 1990s.

The Mountain Hawks were ranked No. 19 in the preseason Division I-AA national poll, and remained ranked throughout the year, rising as high as No. 7 and finishing the year at No. 14. Though co-champion Colgate was given the Patriot League's automatic berth in the Division I-AA playoffs, Lehigh earned an at-large berth. Both Patriot League playoff teams lost in the first round.

Lehigh played its home games at Goodman Stadium on the university's Goodman Campus in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.
