Class of 1968
“By the end of that championship season, the starting lineup was a lineup of stars everywhere you looked. To me, every one of the team starters could have played for every team in the Central League that year.”
“We all contributed, whether in minutes in games or playing hard against each other over the months in practices.”
“We had the kind of depth for which an LM “B” Team would have been competitive with most of the rest of the league.”
“This talent and depth was a blessing for team success”
“Lower Merion soccer has always been good. In the 44 year history of the sport at Lower Merion and the 38th soccer season in a row, the booters have never finished below second place in their league, a record unmatched in any other (LM) sport.”
“The Aces had many individual stars that played important roles in the team’s success. But the factor that made Lower Merion’s soccer team stand above the rest was the ability of eleven, any eleven, individual players to blend into a cohesive working team.”
