Grant Herbek, Staff Member|March 9, 2019

Starting the season off hot, the LHS girls water polo team gained their second win of the season over the Deerfield Warriors on Tuesday, March 5, with a 12-2 victory. The Cats were seemingly unstoppable during the first half, not letting in a single goal defensively while putting several in against Deerfield on the other side of the pool. The Warriors scored a couple times to end the game, but it wasn’t enough to stop the Cats, who are showing a lot of strength to start their season.
