So maybe their schedule so far hasn’t exactly been what you might call, tough. The Aces won their opener in a non-league game against Pottstown, a school that has yet to win its first game.
The following week, Lower Merion lost by a very respectable score of 28-14, at Haverford High School.
In week three, the Aces won a surprisingly easy (47-6) home-game against against Harriton, another team that hasn’t won its first game yet.
Lower Merion lost at home to Conestoga in Week four, 40-14. But if you overlook the three kickoff returns that went for touchdowns, the rest of the game was hard-fought and close.
And then Friday night (September 24), the Aces pushed their record above .500 with a 49-20 win at Penncrest.
All right, maybe Penncrest’s coach did quit, about an hour before the game. And maybe Penncrest, like the other two teams Lower Merion has beaten, hasn’t won its first game this season.

On the other hand, a Lower Merion Football team hasn’t had a record that was this good, this late in the season, since 1992!
So let’s hear it for Coach of the Year, Joe Augustine, and the Lower Merion Aces!!
