They did so with a 1-0 victory over Wexford.
Athlone Town secured back to back wins in the SSE Airtricity League 1st Division for the first time in 19 months last night.
A goal midway through the second half from Jack Reynolds was enough to see of Wexford.
The win lifts Adrian Carberry's side to 8th in the table, above Shamrock Rovers II.
It's their third win since the resumption and vice captain John Morgan says there's a super atmosphere ahead of a midlands derby this Friday night:
