For those unfamiliar with high school
football the Junior Varsity squad consists of sophomore and junior players who
are not regular starters on the Varsity squad. By establishing a Junior
Varsity game schedule it allows these players to play against opponents of
their own size and skill levels.
Watching a Junior Varsity game is a
lot of fun. They usually play on the regular varsity field with a full
compliment of referees. There is no band but the Jr. Varsity cheerleaders
attend each home game.
These young
men go out to play hard and work to improve their abilities. If you have the
time (games are played on Monday afternoon) we strongly recommend attending
(attendance is free). You'll probably catch a rising Panther star on the
field!
The staff here at the web site can't
attend the games but we will update the scores. If you attend a game and
would like to provide a game synopsis (and maybe even some digital pics) we
would be happy to publish them.

The JV team finished its second
consecutive season undefeated with a 21-14 victory over Conestoga today at
George L. King Field. Haven jumped to a 21-0 nothing lead behind touchdowns
by Nick DeCindis from 75 yards out, followed up by Shane Kennedy from the
eight and Lonnie Richardson from the ten. Defensively the defense did a
great job all day, giving up two late scores when many of the starters were
out of the game. The players and coaches worked hard all year and were
rewarded with an outstanding season. Thanks goes out to all parents who
supported the team both at home and on the road.

The JV football team
improved its record to 5-0 with a smash-mouth 28-0 victory over a tough
Upper Darby squad. The touch downs were spread around with sophomores,
Lonnie Richardson, Shane Kennedy and Mike Strannix all scoring along with
junior Tad Goff who took a full back toss for 75 yards and a score. The 4th
shut out of the season was led by juniors Damien Kahmer, Steve McGee, and
Nick Decindis along with stellar play by the two inside linebackers,
sophomore Kennedy and junior Travis West who combined to make a boat load of
tackles. Lower Merion does not field a JV team so the JV Panther's next game
will be at Springfield on October 22.
