Men's Water Polo Opens SCIAC Play at Whittier

WHITTIER, CA — The University of La Verne men's water polo team opened up SCIAC play Saturday, falling 14-10 on the road.

Peter Trinh led the Leopards with four goals and three assists. Trinh has scored four or more goals four times this season.

Jordan Baker, Nicolo Buono, and Nicolas Winsor all finished with one goal and one assist. Alam Chang-Barnuevo, Vaughn Freiermuth, and Steven Rios each netted one goal.

After falling behind 4-2 after the first quarter, the Leopards outscored the Poets 4-3 in the second period. A goal by Freiermuth with under a minute remaining cut the deficit to one heading into the break.
