The Cerritos
College men's water polo team dropped to 4-4 on the
season after a 14-6 loss at Mt. San Antonio College
on Wednesday afternoon. In also marked their first
South Coast Conference loss of the season, as the
team fell to 2-1 in conference play. They will look
to get back to their winning ways on Thursday when
they host Merced College at 3:00 p.m. in a
non-conference game.
The Falcons fell
behind 3-1 after the first quarter and spent the
game trying to catch up to the Mounties. The team
had their fair share of scoring chances, but
turnovers ended those threats. On the day, Cerritos
posted 15 turnovers, while they were limited to just
nine shots.

(Cerritos HS) led the team with two goals,
with a quartet of players each scoring once.
Sophomore
Cory Baccus (Whittier HS) had
a goal, three assists and a pair of steals, while
freshman
Miguel Quijada (El Rancho HS)
had a goal and two steals. The freshmen duo of
Justin Calderon (El Rancho HS)
and
Andrew
