Just getting back to the finals of the MCAL boys water polo playoffs took a titanic feat for defending champion Redwood High. Winning the crown for the second year in a row took another major effort.
The second-seeded Falcons (19-8) clinched their berth in the MCAL title game with Wednesday night’s 9-8 victory over No. 3 Terra Linda (15-8).
“It’s always a big rivalry game with Redwood,” said Lacy, a three-year varsity starter for the Falcons, who defeated rival Redwood 10-8 on Thursday.
Whit Flake grabbed the loose ball amid the chaos in front of the Terra Linda net and pounded it into the back of the net for the winning goal during a frantic finish Wednesday as Archie Williams emerged with a 13-10 victory in a key duel between two MCAL playoff hopefuls.
It was a huge day for Marre Gattnar and the Tam High boys swim team on Saturday at the sparkling new Miwok Aquatics Center in Novato.
