Now, with one match left in the season before the playoffs, Haverford sits three points clear of Radnor and, if form holds, will enjoy top seed in the playoffs.
The Revolution turned out to be more accomodating hosts than the Dragons had anticipated, surrendering two goals in the first half, although Haverford needed to assert their muscle and ambition to secure all three points with a 2-nil victory.
The Dragons started brightly, but so did Concord, and the majority of play was contested physically in the middle of the park. Even still, Haverford enjoyed good possession and penetrated Concord's back line at times, forcing Concord to track back heavily.
It was consistent pressure which told in the 21st minute when the hard work of Connor Bradley, Matthias Chernitsky and Patrick Hegarty earned the Dragons a corner.
The ball was well served by Bradley and Conor Higgins got to the loose ball first to poke it home and give Haverford the lead.
