LM opened their 2013 Central League schedule last night against longtime rival Radnor. The Aces started strong but Radnor responded with some quick counters and after a fairly even played 1st half there was no score.
As the 2nd half began the intensity level rose, and LM began to get away from their possession game. This lasted most of the 2nd half, with neither team generating many scoring chances. With just under 6 minutes left in the game senior Eli Cohen finally solved the Raiders defense and gave the Aces a 1-0 lead. Just two minutes later LM was awarded a penalty kick, and Cohen was called on again. He calmly converted to give the Aces a 2-0 win, hard fought, but not pretty. This was the 4th straight shutout in as many games for the Aces & junior goalkeeper Will Rosenbaum.
This victory brought LM's overall record to 4-0 (1-0 league). Next up for the Aces is another big Central League contest next Tuesday, September 17th, on Arnold Field at 3:45 PM.
