Behind a match-high seven goals from Nick Angulo, the San Benito boys water polo team defeated host Palma 12-7 Monday at Santa Catalina in Monterey.
Angulo scored three of the Balers’ four goals in the first half to give San Benito a 4-2 edge at the break, while a five-goal effort by the Balers in the third quarter — Angulo scored four of the five goals — provided San Benito with a bit of breathing room heading into the final stanza.

Keeper Trevor Agan had six saves in the match.
The Chieftains, meanwhile, drop to 0-2 in the TCAL, 0-4 overall.
