The Cerritos College women's water polo team continued their magical season, as they won their fourth tournament of the season, and with their four wins at the Citrus Tournament, have now won 14 consecutive games. The Falcons, ranked #4 in the state, are now 23-2 on the season, which sets a new school record for most wins in a year. They established the old record of 21 last season under first-year head coach Sergio Macias. The team will resume South Coast Conference play on Wednesday when they play host to El Camino College for a 4:15 p.m. contest.
