Rocklin at Granite Bay Boys Water Polo 10.18.22

ROCKLIN SITTING ON TOP OF THE SFL STANDINGS WITH A 5-0 RECORD... PLAYING GRANITE BAY WHO IS IS JUST HALF A GAME BACK.
THE THUNDER GET ON THE BOARD FIRST ON THE ONE-TIMER FROM DALLIN PODUSKA. ROCKLIN TAKES THE 3-NOTHING LEAD AFTER ONE.
IN THE SECOND... ROCKLIN THROWING AROUND THE PERIMETER.... MORGAN MADRIL TO EDDIE HILL... EDDIE'S SHOT IS GOOD AND IT IS 4-1 ROCKLIN.
THE GRIZZLIES TRYING TO OVERCOME THE EARLY DEFECIT. 6 Timothy Zhuchenko 9 FINDS A WELL GUARDED CARMELO BANGS... THE CAPTAIN IS ABLE TO GET THE SHOT TO LAND.
BUT THE THUNDER HOLDING ON TIGHT TO ITS LEAD.. Jack Mangelsdorf THROWS A LOB SHOT AND IT FALLS JUST INSIDE THE POST. THAT'S A GOAL FOR JACK. 6-3 ROCKLIN WITH THREE MINUTES LEFT IN THE HALF.
THE GRIZZLIES MAKE IT A TWO POINT GAME AT THE BREAK. THE BALL IS DUMPED OFF TO 2 SETH BOUSFIELD. AND THAT IS AN IMPRESSIVE GOAL FROM SETH. 6-4 ROCKLIN HEADING INTO THE THIRD QUARTER.
17 KALE IRBY AND 2 PODUSKA WITH A LITTLE BACK AND FORTH BEFORE IRBY WINDS UP AND TAKES THE SHOT. ROCKLIN'S LEAD IS BACK TO THREE.
G-B STAYING IN IT. 3 EDMOND SHEEHY THE FOURTH TO 6 Zhuchenko UP THE MIDDLE... A SIDEARMED SKIPPING SHOT IS GOOD.
BUT ROCKLIN NEVER RELIQUISHES ITS LEAD. WATCH THIS SHOT FROM EDDIE HILL. I DON'T KNOW HOW HE DOES IT BUT EDDIE IS FIRED UP AFTER HIS SIX-GOAL PERFORMANCE.
GRANITE BAY WITH SOME QUICK MOVEMENT IN FROM OF THE RACK BUT GOALKEEPER JACK KIMMEL IS HAVING NONE OF IT! ROCKLIN TAKES HOME THE 12-8 VICTORY AND WITH THE WIN CLINCHES AT LEAST A SHARE OF THE SIERRA FOOTHILL LEAGUE TITLE WITH TWO MORE LEAGUE GAMES REMAINING.
