Sea Kings Leave Servite in Their Wake

Top-ranked Corona del Mar jumped out to a big halftime lead and cruised to an 8-3 nonleague victory over 10th-ranked Servite Monday at Servite in a rematch of last year’s Southern Section Division II boys’ water polo final.

Servite trailed, 5-0, at halftime before scoring twice in the third quarter, but Corona del Mar (14-2) was never threatened.

The Sea Kings got three goals from Garrett Bowlus and two each from Michael March and Artie Dorr. Sherwin Kim and Beau Stockstill, who split time in goal for Corona del Mar, had five saves each. Vincent Bevins, Shawn McCurdy and Mike Rustemeyer scored for Servite, which lost to Corona del Mar, 8-6, in last year’s Division II final.
