Breakers fall in water polo, girls volleyball

Laguna Beach High’s boys’ water polo team jumped out to a quick

two-goal lead on Esperanza in Tuesday’s nonleague match, but the host

Breakers stormed back in the final three periods to take an 11-5

victory.

Laguna led, 4-2, after one quarter of play. Esperanza, however,

outscored the Breakers, 9-1, over the final two quarters.

In girls’ volleyball Tuesday, Laguna fell to host and

league-leading Northwood, 25-15, 25-16, 25-15.

In girls’ tennis, Laguna rebounded from its first loss of the

Katie Oschwat, Jackie Reed and Kellie Ammerman each won twice in

singles play and the doubles team of Lauren Thigpen and Kendall

Arrington earned a sweep over their Timberwolves opponents.
