Kevin DeHuff posted a 6-under 66 on Tuesday at Tijeras Creek as Santa Margarita cruised to a 27-stroke nonleague victory against Long Beach Millikan.
Santa Margarita’s Mackenzie Beck scored three goals and Kailyn Obenauer of Newport Harbor, Marisa Young of Fountain Valley and Danielle Styles of Dana Hills added two goals apiece to help the South defeat the North, 14-5, in the Orange County all-star girls water polo match Sunday at Ocean View.
The South all-stars led, 7-5, at halftime and won the second half, 7-0.
Los Alamitos’ Cory Dodson scored twice to lead the North.
Here’s the box score for the game, which is a graduation of sorts from high school water polo:

Three county athletes are among the current state leaders after the first week of statewide track and field action.
Newport Harbor junior Ethan Cochran is the state leader in the discus. Cochran threw a lifetime best 183-6 to win the competition at the Eagle/ASICS Invitational.
Yes, it’s true. Newport has landed the upset of the season thus far by stunning state No. 1 Miramonte in the finals of the Memorial Cup Invitational in San Jose on Saturday night. The Sailors’ Jack Yeager scored with one second left in the second three-minute overtime period for the victory.
This month’s Division I playoffs might be the best in recent memory. Newport just beat thee best team in the state and the Sailors will likely be the second-place team to LosAl in the Sunset League. Also on Saturday night, Ventura claimed the Vellekamp tournament in big water at Northwood.
I wonder if any Division I county coaches made it over to see Ventura play.
Newport Harbor’s boys water polo team defeated Corona del Mar, 7-4, in the semifinals of the Memorial Cup Invitational in San Jose on Saturday to reach tonight’s 6:50 final against state powerhouse Miramonte of Orinda (22-0).
Miramonte advanced with a 7-5 victory against Coronado.
The Tars improved to 3-1 against the Sea Kings this season, with all three victories coming in tournaments. This was by far the teams’ biggest encounter and Newport made it a decisive victory.
A motion for reconsideration in the eligibility case of Corona del Mar water polo goalie Martin Babovic was denied in Orange County Superior Court earlier today, according his the player’s attorney, Richard Bridgford.
The touted player from Serbia lost a bid for varsity eligibility during an injunction hearing earlier this month.
More details to come.
The attorney for Corona del Mar water polo goalie Marin Babovic will be back in Orange County Superior Court on Monday morning for reconsideration in the senior’s eligibility case.
On Oct. 15, an Orange County judge denied the Serbian varsity eligibility in an injunction hearing, siding with the Southern Section’s definition of enrollment. But attorney Richard Bridgford is seeking reconsideration in the case based on state and Southern Section rules and guidelines for the summer.
Summer contact has been an obstacle for Babovic since he played for Corona del Mar during a summer tournament in Hungary.
“In a nutshell, as with any other incoming student, Babovic was eligible to participate in water polo at Corona del Mar High School prior to his attendance in the Fall under what is known as the CIF Summer Rules,” Bridgford wrote in an e-mail.
Corona del Mar earned its first victory in three tries against the Tars. Attackers Brian Schiefer and Max Bergeson (pictured left) were the two best shooters in the pool and combined for seven goals. Goalie Isle Anderson also played well for the Sea Kings.
El Toro’s boys water polo team beat Mater Dei, 9-5, to reach the semifinals of the North-South Challenge on Saturday. Orange County’s top-ranked team will play the winner of the second-round match between Sacred Heart Prep and Santa Barbara.
In other news later Friday night, the attorney for Corona del Mar goalie Martin Babovic said he will be in court Monday morning for reconsideration in a case that left the Serbian ineligible for varsity play. Richard Bridgford said in an e-mail that new evidence has been discovered. Stay tuned for more details.
Max Bergeson, one of the top juniors in the county, scored five goals as No. 9 Corona del Mar avenged an earlier loss against Servite at the S & R Sport Cup by handling the No. 8 Friars, 12-7, on Tuesday.
