Costa Girls Water Polo season ends with tough loss in
CIF Championship overtime!
The Mira Costa Girls Water Polo team played for the CIF championship against Oaks Christian. The game was the closest of the season with play going into 3 overtime periods before Oaks took the title with a sudden death goal. The teams were remarkably evenly matched and showed a very strong defense game. Oaks played an aggresive field defense, limiting Costa’s strong shooting game, while Costa’s strong goal defense stopped most of Oaks’ scoring attempts. On the offensive side both teams were again evenly matched with Oaks taking the early lead 4-2 at the half, but, in the second half, Costa played to their long shots to neutralize Oaks’ field defense and brought the game even 7-7 at the end of regulation play
