On Oct. 24, girls’ varsity water polo triumphed over San Rafael, winning 14-0. In addition to celebrating the victory, the team and their families also celebrated their six seniors. They were commemorated with speeches, gifts and posters made by their teammates.
From the beginning of the game, it was clear that the Giants had dominant possession of the ball. Redwood had great offense and defense, hardly allowing the Bulldogs to get close to their goal. Sophomores Aurora DeVilbiss and Sophia Taylor, as well as seniors Giselle Orsen and Jordan Maurus, rotated in at goalie for the Giants. They had fast reactions all throughout the game, denying the Bulldogs any chance of a goal.
Overall the night was a success, with a huge win and celebration for the years of work that the seniors have put into the team. Each and every one of the players on the team contributed to this heartwarming and celebratory night. The girls’ next game is Tuesday, Oct. 29 in the Marin County Athletic League quarterfinals!
