Varsity Water Polo v. Chelsea Piers Aquatics CLub

Eaglebrook 8 – CPAC 13 (Loss)

 

The Eagles finished classes, boarded the busses, and headed for southern Connecticut on Friday, October 27 to face off against some of the best teams in the area. Each team would be more challenging than the last. Every pool would be larger and deeper than any pool the Eagles have played in this year. After a long trip we arrived in Stamford to take on the Chelsea Piers Aquatics Club. The Eagles had a slow start to the first quarter, but Chelsea Piers came out strong and fast. Matt Brooks played some of his best goal keeping of the season as he blocked shots from the perimeter, off fast breaks, and from the hole set. As the game progressed the boys began to get their legs underneath them and our offense began to improve. Nine Eagles registered shots on goal throughout the game and five players notched one or more goals. The boys played hard until the very end with outstanding performances from Daniel Nixon, Andy Rymes, and Matt Brooks.
