The Tradition Continues

This posting illustrates the tremendous success of the LM boy's soccer program since it's inception in 1924. Every player who has ever represented the Aces on Arnold Field over the past 86 years is responsible for a piece of this success.

League play did not begin until 1931, when the Suburban One league was formed. The Aces won that first league championship, and in the 37-year existence of the Suburban One league LM won the title 21 times. In 1967 the Central league was formed, with the Aces winning that title 10 times through 2009.

The district One playoffs did not begin until 1954, with LM again winning the very first year. In all, to date, the Aces have won 6 District One championships, and finished runner-up in 4 more.

The PIAA state playoffs began in 1973, and since then LM has played in the stae final game 3 times, winning it all in 1987.
