GIRLS SOCCER ( 2-0-1 , 5-8-4 )
Laguna ’ s playoff hopes came down to the season ’ s final contest , that was played on Feb . 1 at Fountain Valley ( 0-4-1 , 8-10-2 ). The Breakers needed a win to clinch a playoff spot and qualify for the D3 Southern Section post-season to be announced on Feb . 4 . Laguna had made the playoffs 10 straight years until just missing last season .
Last week , Laguna lost 4-0 to Corona del Mar ( 3-2 , 14-5-1 ) on Jan . 26 at the winner ’ s field but tied Marina ( 3-1-1 , 6-5-7 ) in a scoreless overtime match on Jan . 30 at Guyer Field .
GIRLS WATER POLO ( 4-1 , 18-7 ) Laguna traveled to Los Alamitos ( 4-1 , 20-7 ) Feb . 2 for the final regular season game and a chance to capture the Sunset Surf League title – the program ’ s 18 crown in 26 seasons . The final game is considered Laguna ’ s home game despite having to play the Griffins twice at their pool since the local Laguna pool is not a full-size regulation water polo pool .
Southern Section CIF playoffs start next week , and the Breakers will be seeded in the top 8 . They will appear in the Open Division along with Foothill , Orange Lutheran , Mater Dei , San Marcos , Newport Harbor , Corona del Mar and Los Alamitos . Seedings / brackets will be posted on Feb . 4 , at 9 a . m . at www . cifss . org .
Last weekend , the Breakers went 4-1 to finish third in the Newport Invite , won by Foothill with a 13-7 win over Bishop ’ s ( La Jolla ). Laguna opened play with a 15-9 win over Mater Dei on Thursday , Jan . 26 , the Breakers ’ 22nd win over the Monarchs in 23 all-time meetings . On Friday , Laguna defeated Carlsbad 18-4 and surprised # 1 seed Foothill 10-9 . Saturday morning , Laguna led Bishop ’ s 4-3 at the intermission but lost their top scorer Ava Knepper to an undisclosed injury and ended up losing to the San Diego school 13-12 in double overtime . Charlotte Riches scored five goals , and Lauren Schneider had nine very difficult saves with four assists in the effort . The Breakers , unfortunately , squandered a 9-7 lead with just under four minutes remaining in regulation .
In the third-place game , Laguna bounced back without Knepper and defeated # 2 seed San Marcos 8-7 with three goals by Charlotte Riches and 11 saves by Lauren Schneider in the cage . This past Tuesday , Laguna easily defeated Huntington Beach 17-6 in a league game played at Los Alamitos . Lauren Short had six goals , while Natasha Denny and Siena Jumani shared the duties in the cage .
