Taking the sixth seed, La Jolla's boys water polo team will enter the CIF Open Division playoffs Sat., Nov. 4, in a 4 p.m. game against third-seed Cathedral Catholic at Coggan Pool on the LJHS campus.
The Vikings, led by seniors Maverick Becker and Tyler Brown, hold an 11-11 overall record. The Dons are 14-12.
The Open Division bracket is not unkind to Coach Tom Atwell's team. Though the Vikes lost both their league matches to Cathedral, including a 7-3 downing Oct. 26 in the Carmel Valley, their first-round match could have come against Bishop's, ranked second, or another stronger team.
La Jolla also features junior Cole Raulston in goal, and sophomore Cole Atwell and juniors Gabe Sepulveda-Sanders and Pablo Rayon on the perimeter.
The Vikings, as a result of Thursday's loss in their last regular-season match, finished the league schedule at 4-4.
