The Boys water polo team ended off their season better than anyone anticipated and set high standards for years to come. On Tuesday, November 19th the Miners traveled to Merced to play the El Capitan Gauchos. A close contest was held with the Miners winning by a score of 14-12 which advanced them to the state semifinals round against St. Ignatius in San Francisco.
The Miners played great and gave it their all against St. Ignatius. Unfortunately, they lost 7-12 in a game that still had the Miners showing people that they were a championship-caliber team with even more to prove next season and the years that follow. The support for this team was phenomenal this season. They went further than any other sports program at El Diamante has ever gone and they’re well prepared to do it all over again next year.
