Perfect thru 3

After thumping West Chester East 4-0 in the season opener, and spotting Bonner a 2-0 lead in their 2nd game on two early penalty kicks, before scoring 4 unanswered goals to win 4-3, the 2012 Aces kept up the offensive onslaught today against Cardinal O'Hara.

LM's Senior tri-captain Matt Lindheim opened the scoring early in the game, and 5 minutes later Greg Levy's long throw-in was right on the mark as junior David Baer doubled the Aces' lead. Lindheim made it 3-0 with a pretty breakaway goal just before halftime. The 2nd half saw 4 more quality LM goals (junior Eli Cohen, sophomore Evan Wolf, senior Mark Abi-Khatter on a highlite reel half volley, and junior Tyler Robinson), as the Aces recorded a 7-1 win.

Next up is another non-league contest with Plymouth Whitemarsh on September 8th, before beginning Central League play on September 11th at home against Radnor.

 LM Soccer Alumni Weekend begins just 2 weeks from Friday. We are looking for a few more sponsors for the Friday, September 21st, 8th Annual Steve Fountain Memorial Golf Event, as well as more players. It is played in a scramble format so you don't have to be a good player to have fun & do well. And. it's for a great cause. To become a sponsor, or register as a golfer, go to the LM Soccer Alumni website at lmsocceralum.org and click on "Steve Fountain". You can do it all there.

Immediately following the Steve Fountain golf event at Edgemont Golf Club on September 21st we will be holding the 2nd LM Soccer Alumni Dinner, the last one being in 2007. LM Soccer Alumni from every year are invited, as we will be celebrating the 25th anniversary of the 1987 LM Aces State Soccer Championship, Most of the players & coaches from that magical season will be in attendance. You don't want to miss it. It will be held at Edgmont Golf Club and begin with cocktails at 7:30 PM. The cost is $65 per person, and includes the dinner & open bar all evening. You can make checks payable to "LMSAA" and send them to: Jim VanDusen, 800 Maple Glen Lane, Wayne, PA 19087-4727.

On Saturday, September 22nd, at 10 AM on the turf at Arnold Field, the current LM Aces take on Upper Darby in an important Central League contest. Come on out and support the 2012 Aces. At 11:45 that same morning, on the grass soccer field adjacent to the turf field, we will be holding our annual LM Soccer Alumni Game. We desperately need more players, as the 1987 State Championship team (average age being 44) is taking on all the LM Soccer Alumni from other years. This should be something to see.

After the Alumni Game lunch will be served on the field to all LM Soccer Alumni & their families at no charge. We do need an accurate count for the caterer by Monday, September 17th, so please email Bob Davidson at bubdavidson@comcast.net if you plan on participating, and how many lunches you will need. Let's make this year our biggest turnout ever.
