The Fords will head out on the road to  face off against  the Aces  at 2:30  p.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:2\">Haverford will head out to face Lower Merion after giving up their first home loss of the  season on Thursday. The  game between the Fords and Garnet Valley didn&#8217;t end well, with the Fords falling  45-26. While losing is never fun, the Fords can&#8217;t take it too hard given the team&#8217;s big disadvantage  in MaxPreps&#8217; Pennsylvania basketball rankings (they are ranked 129th, while the Jaguars are ranked 47th).<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:3\"> Meanwhile, Lower Merion got the win against Ridley  on Thursday by a conclusive  63-42. The Aces have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won seven  contests by 20  points or more this season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:4\"> Lower Merion&#8217;s win was  their sixth straight on the road, which  pushed their record up to 11-7. Those  road  victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 28.5 points on average over those games. As for Haverford, their defeat dropped their record down to 6-5-1.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:5\"> Haverford beat Lower Merion 40-30  in their previous matchup  back in December of 2025. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Fords since the  team won&#8217;t have the home-court advantage this time around. We&#8217;ll see if the change in venue makes a difference.<\/p>\n<p>Article generated by <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/infosentience.com\/\">infoSentience<\/a> based on data entered on MaxPreps<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"vs 12\/18\/25 &#8211; Home40-30 W02\/01\/25 &#8211; Away43-25 W12\/20\/24 &#8211; Home42-28 W02\/06\/24 &#8211; Home50-30 W12\/22\/23 &#8211; Away47-22 W+ 5&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":100569,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[183,185,184,186],"class_list":["post-100568","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-lower-merion","tag-lower-merion","tag-lower-merion-headlines","tag-lower-merion-news","tag-lower-merion-township"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/100568","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=100568"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/100568\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/100569"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=100568"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=100568"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=100568"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
