Hitting Their Stride

The Aces had a chance this afternoon to see just how good they are. They played a quality opponent (Central Bucks West, ranked #7 in the Southeastern PA Soccer Coaches' Poll this week) on the road, and passed the test with flying colors.

LM continued to ride their defense, and their set pieces on offense, to spanked the Bucks 3-0. It was senior David Baer opening the scoring in the 1st half, with a goal coming off a corner kick from Francisco Palma. Early in the 2nd half Palma picked up 2 goals of his own, both coming from direct free kicks. The Aces controlled play for most of the game, against a quality opponent, and are looking to finish strong in their last 5 games. This pushes LM's overall record to a perfect 12-0 (8-0 league), and still have yet to give up a goal.

Next week the Aces are home on Tuesday with a Central League game with Garnet Valley (3:30 PM), away at Springfield Delco on Thursday (another league game) at 3:45 PM, and back home on Saturday (10 AM) against non-league opponent Archbishop Carroll (Senior Day).
