Both water polo teams won again Thursday to continue their early season success.

The boys team scored five goals in the first three minutes of its game against Watsonville to cruise to a 6-1 victory. For the second game in a row, the team decided to work on passing and not score for sportsmanship reason, according to head coach Aaron Gautney.

The girls team also had success Thursday, beating Santa Cruz 11-6 to win its second game in a row. The win evens the Balers overall record to 2-2.

Both teams will travel to San Lorenzo Valley on Tuesday.

Look for an update.

Girls Golf

The golf team dropped its first match of the year to Santa Catalina at San Juan Oaks Golf Club on Thursday as heavy wind affected play.

Emily Palmquist led the Balers shooting a 43 – seven over par – in the windy conditions. McKenna Bernosky followed shooting a 51.

Morgan Di Domenico shot a 56, Lexi Branon shot a 53, Mandy Glosser shot a 57 and Sydney Di Domenico shot a 61 in the Balers’ loss.

The team combined for a score of 203. Santa Catalina was able to battle the winds and finish with a score of 177.

“We had some pretty intense wind conditions that seemed to affect play,” Corryn Martin said through email. “I was very impressed with the shots my girls were taking, especially their drives.”

The Balers travel to Corral de Tierra Country Club in Toro on Monday to face Notre Dame.
