The boys water polo team finished their season with a 10-2 league record and a 19-8 overall record. The team beat Lynbrook High School overtime 12-11 in the SCVAL League Tournament to earn a co-league championship and a spot in CCS for the first time in Harker history. The Eagles lost 5-14 against Half-Moon Bay High in the first round of CCS playoffs on Nov. 1.

“It went well because we made history, of course by being co-league champs and making CCS for the first time ever in Harker history,” Arnav Tandon (12) said. “It was a great way to go out as seniors, and it definitely gave the younger kids some much-needed experience at the higher level. Our team played really well and we really improved our team chemistry through the year.

We started being more selfless and giving up a good shot for a better shot.”
