Still in preseason and preparing for upcoming Sunset league, the boys water polo team took their game to Tesoro High School this last Thursday. Unfortunately the Barons suffered a tough loss of 6-13 against a strong Tesoro opponent.

In the first quarter, the boys let Tesoro grab the lead and dug a hole that they struggled to get out of. The rest of the game, the Barons fought hard to claw back both Greg Pace (’12) and Shawn Carroll (’12) scored two goals each. However, Tesoro kept a majority of the possession and fired shot after shot against Joe Romo (’12) whose saves unfortunately were not enough.

“We are going to come out harder and leave the first quarter with a solid lead,” remarked Alex Kryger (’12) about their goals for the next game.

The boys are still missing the full services of the sophomore set player, Kyle Breznau, who fortunately is starting to play and regain his fitness, but has not yet healed completely. With a record thus far of 2-7-0 the Barons will be looking for a much needed win next week.
