Girls water polo: Saddleback tops Eagles

COSTA MESA - Estancia High scored twice as many goals as Saddleback

the final three quarters, but it wasn’t enough to avert a 9-6 nonleague

girls water polo loss to the Roadrunners Wednesday.

Senior Diana Kopasek led the Eagles (3-3) with three goals, while

Laura Morton had 14 saves.

Saddleback’s Clarissa Garcia scored six of her game-high seven goals

in the first period, when the visitors assumed an insurmountable 7-2

lead.

Estancia defeated Pacifica, 17-16, in a nonleague home game Tuesday,

when senior twin sisters Jasmine and Hanni Geider scored four goals

apiece.

Estancia visits Santa Ana Friday.
