We had a great turnout for the 2016 Alumni Game on Black Friday, so we will be scheduling this day every year going forward. The players ranged in graduating year from 2015 back to 1985. The players were divided into 2 teams; the 5 oldest with the 5 youngest (White Team), and all the middle ages together (Blue Team). The play was solid all around, good passing, communication, ball skills, & surprisingly enough speed. The Blue team got on the board midway thru the 1st half and took a 1-0 lead. With less than a minute remaining they scored again to go up 2 at halftime. In the 2nd half the white came alive, hitting the crossbar and a couple of posts but couldn't get one past keeper Juan Munoz. Final score 2-0 Blue.

Put Black Friday's date in your calendar for next year's annual "Alumni Game".

I will be posting all the updated LM Soccer Records on December 1st, with 2-3 additions. I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season, and outside of a post here & there, I'll start up again next summer. Thank you all for your continued support of Lower Merion Soccer.
