LBCC Women’s Water Polo Undefeated in Conference

By Jorge Hernandez

LBCC women’s water polo remains undefeated in the conference after a dominating 24-6 win against Pasadena College on Wednesday at the Los Alamitos Air Force Base. 

Pasadena got the first two goals of the first quarter. Rylie Gugielmotti scored the first two goals for LBCC and Rochelle Beavers got the next four goals.

“We have a pretty solid season, we’re gonna get into our way through the league and really excited for us to win and put us in a nice place for the championship,” Gugielmotti said. 

When asked about the two goal play, Gugielmotti said, “Honestly, just follow what my coach says, get up on your legs, finish hard, and apply that to the game.”

LBCC was dominant in defense, not letting Pasadena get a score in the second and third quarter. 

Lisa Bautista scored the most points throughout the game with seven goals in the second, third and fourth quarters. 

Carlotta Zandali, Kaya Barrett, Analise Burch and Daphne Wilder each scored twice during the game and Pasadena scored four points in the fourth quarter. 

LBCC women’s water polo head coach Chris Oeding is confident of the team’s dominance in the conference and they hope to win the championship after this win. 

“This is one step closer to putting us into position to make that happen,” Oeding said. “Playing strong and gaining the lead early on let us relax and settle in and kinda took control of the game there.”

The final Conference game is on Oct. 27 against Mt. San Antonio and the team is hoping to finish the season undefeated. 

“We saw Mt. Sac one time earlier in the year and they have good positional players which will be a challenge,” Oeding said. 

Oeding continued, “We’re undefeated in the conference so i think it’s our goal to win that game as the no.1 seed heading into the tournament.”
