Seasons end for some teams as others rev up for playoffs

Boys Water Polo

The boys water polo team ended its season with a 6-12 loss to Gunn and a 4-9 loss to Lynbrook in the SCVAL Tournament last week.

Girls Water Polo

The girls water polo team finished its season with a third place finish at the SCVAL Tournament last week. The Eagles beat Santa Clara 2-1 on a last second goal from Abigail Wisdom, grade 11. After a close 2-4 loss to Wilcox, the girls defeated Monta Vista 7-1 behind two goals from Cas Ruedy, grade 10. Coach Allie Lamb said, “This has been one of the most successful seasons for Harker girls water polo in several years.”

Football

Finishing off the best regular season in Harker history, the football team went to 9-0 after a 42-7 thrashing of Irvington High last Saturday. It was a pair of running backs leading the way as Aaron Smith, grade 11, ran for 176 yards and two TDs, while Marcus Tymous, grade 11, ran for 103 yards and two TDs. The Eagles take a week off before finding out where they fall in the NCS playoff bracket, which starts on Nov. 10.

Girls Golf

The girls golf team continues to roll as it finished second at the WBAL tournament last week. Katherine Zhu, grade 12, once again led the Eagles, as she shot a 3-under-par 67. Zhu is the four-time league champion, the only person, male or female, to accomplish that task in league history. The girls travel to Laguna Seca early Monday to compete at the CCS Championships.
