The Blair girls water polo team is swimming in accolades. After a slow start to the season with a 0-4 record, they won nine of the next 10 matches. They went on to win the Silver Division of the Ventura Friendlies tournament earlier this year, becoming the only team in their division to win all four of their games.

And for the first time in school history, they made it to the California Interscholastic Federation, Southern Section (CIF-SS) playoffs, Division six! Last week, we learned of another first – the team has three athletes selected for ALL CIF-SS teams. Each all-star team, the 1st, 2nd and 3rd, is selected by all the coaches in the playoffs. Congratulations on this amazing honor, Ella Lesnever, Katlyn Ong and Anabella Nunez! PUSD is proud of you, your teammates, and your amazing coaches!
