In a season full of rain and rescheduled games, our Panthers took advantage a few dry days and were able to squeeze in back to back games against Morningside.  Our Lady Panthers took care of business winning both matches in games that allowed coach Massey to clear his benches, giving his younger players valuable game time experience.   On our boys side of the ball, our playoff bound Panthers secured two victories by scores of 9-0 and 6-1.

On Monday, the Polo Panthers beat Long Beach Wilson 8 - 6. 
 
Yesterday, we played the top-seeded Redondo Union in a valiant fight to the end.  Down 7 - 2 at the beginning of the fourth quarter, our girls came back and tied the score.  In overtime, we nearly had the game, but Redondo slipped one in for a final score of 8 - 7.  The team saw some great saves in the cage by Kiersten Hazard and goals by Meghan Mahoney (1) and Lucie Abele (6). Coach Albert Garcia said, "What a game -- so proud of our girls! They played their hearts out today. I've never been so proud of a team in my entire polo career!"
 
Way to go Panthers!
