Boys’ water polo team tries to finish season strong

The boys’ water polo team continues to win. And win. And win. After starting off the season red hot, the Falcons are still playing strong and had record of 19-0 as of Oct. 25. Led by star senior Stephen Cho, the team seems to have no match in its league.

The team recently won 12-3 against Fremont on Oct. 22. The team is first in the league.

“Even with this high-scoring win, we still have areas we need to improve,” sophomore utility Mason Lee said. “These games will help us become better and achieve our bigger goals.”

According to Lee, the team played strong defense and did not give the opponent many opportunities to score. However, Lee feels they could improve on communication and being more patient on offense.

Earlier in the month, the Falcons won 18-6 against Harker on Oct. 15. The team took an early lead and kept it throughout the match.

“I'm really impressed with the work of the boys to come together as a team and win every game,” Cho said. “If we keep this up, I don't see why we can't go undefeated for the rest of the season.”

With the undefeated start, the boys see winning the league and advancing in CCS as realistic goals.

“[The team] has been working extremely hard at each and every practice. We strive to be the best we can and try to fix all our mistakes,” sophomore water polo player Alex Whitman said. “I think we have an excellent shot at achieving our goals.”
