Lyons Returns; Crucial Save Seals Win


Despite not being fully healed, Danny Lyons made a timely return to the nets for the Haverford Dragons today, making the stop of the season to keep a clean sheet and preserve a fragile 1-nil lead in the 47th minute against West Chester United; a lead which turned out to be the difference as Haverford picked up another win.

With the Dragons playing two matches this weekend, the team hold their destiny in their own hands, as two wins will launch them into top spot on the Delco U12 EPYSA 3 table with one match left in the season.

With that in mind, the Dragons put together a total team performance in today's match, which, if duplicated on Sunday, will likely see them take the lead in the division.

Lyons was a welcome sight on the touchline prior to the match, and he showed good mobility throughout the contest even though his toe remains less than 100 percent.
