Playing at the Los Al Naval Base where the US Women’s Water Polo team practices, the Wilson Bruins (who have sent a number of athletes to that team over the years) looked impressive in a 9-6 win over the Irvine Vaqueros.  The Bruins got down 5-2 but closed strong to win in the first round of the CIF playoffs.  They now advance to the quarterfinals where they’ll face Dos Pueblos, who beat Huntington Beach.  We’re not yet sure where the game will be played, but we’ll let you know tomorrow in case you want to go—home pool could be very important, as every home team won their first-round match yesterday.
