The streak is over.
Ryan Clancy scored 15 points, Jack Donaghy added 11 and Haverford ended Lower Merion’s in-league winning streak with a 60-57 victory Wednesday night in a Central League game.
Lower Merion (0-2, 0-1), the reigning PIAA Class AAAA champion, had won its last 44 meetings with Central League teams, a streak that covered parts of three seasons. The Aces’ last in-league defeat was a 64-49 decision Jan. 13, 2011, against Upper Darby. And it’s their first loss to Haverford since the 2006-07 season.
The difference for Haverford was at the free-throw line.
