Boys water polo: Tars’ Belden Sea View MVP

Newport Harbor High senior Peter Belden, who led the Sailors to

their fourth straight Sea View League title, as well as their first CIF

Southern Section Division I championship since 1984, has been named Sea

View Most Valuable Player by the circuit’s coaches.

Belden, a first-team all-league pick as a junior, was joined on the

first team by senior teammates Ryan Cook, Steve Jendrusina and Joey

Snelgrove. Cook was a first-team pick a year ago and Jendrusina was a

second-team choice last fall.

Harbor seniors Caine Littrell, Kyle Bean and goalie Brandon McLain are

second-team honorees.
