Over the past few years the Don Lugo Water Polo team has been showing everybody who they are and what they can do if given the opportunity to. The team has gone undefeated for the past few years during league and are on track to do that again this year. The season this year has been going good for Lugo after losing some of their team after last year’s seniors graduated. Even with this challenge of not having the same players the team has pushed through and adapted with their new team to continue winning games. Drake Bell says, “I enjoy that the fishbowl actually gets representation and acknowledged unlike other water polo games that go on.”
The team did not disappoint during the fish bowl match this year with Lugo scoring an incredible 13 goals, while Chino only scored a mere three. Lugo was the first to score during the game and kept that energy up throughout the entire game. Lugo’s water polo team has been on a roll beating Chino during the fish bowl for the past six years straight and they aren’t looking like they are going to lose that streak anytime soon.
The team started out the game a little shaky but after that first goal they found their flow and continued to keep it throughout the rest of the game. Varsity player Austin Cantos states, “Our team came into the game a bit aggressive on the defensive side and that resulted in the team scoring less points then they could have scored.” All the water polo team needs is one more win during their next game to go undefeated this entire season for the third season in a row.
