NEW YORK — The Columbia women's tennis and men's soccer teams will compete over the next five days. Women's tennis will split the squad between the ITA Super Regionals and Fordham Invitational. Men's soccer looks to stay unbeaten in Ivy League play on Saturday at Dartmouth, followed by a non-conference game Tuesday at La Salle.
Every week, GoColumbiaLions.com will be using "Lions on the Road" to preview all of that week's upcoming games and events happening off campus. Be sure to access each team's website on gameday to keep up with all of the action as it happens.

MEN'S SOCCER
The men's soccer team takes its unbeaten Ivy League record (0-0-3 Ivy) to Hanover, New Hampshire for a Saturday night clash with Dartmouth (1-2-0 Ivy). The Lions and Big Green each have three points and are in a three-way tie for fourth in the Ivy League table. The winner of Saturday's matchup will keep their Ivy League title hopes alive. Columbia is coming off a draw that it earned against reigning champion Princeton on Saturday.
Will DeNight played the hero, scoring a
fabulous free-kick goal in the 86th minute. Following this Saturday's game at Dartmouth, the Lions will end their non-conference slate with a matchup at La Salle on Tuesday.
