Girls water polo: Albano’s finals predictions

February 22nd, 2013, 11:09 pm by DAN ALBANO, ocvarsity.com

After blazing through the first couple rounds of predictions, I struggled with my picks for the water polo semifinals, going just 5-3. The picks don’t get any easier for what should be a great Saturday of water polo finals. But I’m to press on and finish what I started:

Division 1

Newport def. CdM (I wonder if the Sailors peaked in the semifinals but I still like the Sailors’ strength at 2-meter offense and defense and in goal with Harrington. And despite their 8-5 victory against Santa Barbara, they can shoot better than they did in the semifinals. The Haralabidis twins are difference-makers who can raise their games, so the Sea Queens will be make this a one-goal game. Key matchup to watch: Outside shooters Cassidy Papa, Stephania Haralabidis vs. Cleo Harrington. The potential loss of Maddie Musselman (injured) also is a big factor.)

Girls water polo: Div. 2 preview – Mater Dei-Santa Margarita splashdown (poll)

February 22nd, 2013, 11:35 am by DAN ALBANO, ocvarsity.com

SATURDAY’S CIF-SS GIRLS WATER POLO FINALS

All games at William Woollett Jr. Aquatics Center, Irvine

DIVISION 2

MATER DEI (23-9) VS. SANTA MARGARITA (24-6 ), 2:30 p.m.

Outlook: Both teams should be highly motivated for this one. Fourth-seeded Mater Dei is back in the finals after falling to Santiago of Corona in the 2012 Division 2 final. The Monarchs exorcised some demons in the semifinals by eliminating the top-seeded Sharks, 9-7.

Mater Dei has established itself as a strong girls program but a title would be sweet for players who have seen their boys counterparts claim CIF championships five consecutive seasons.
