On the afternoon of Wednesday, October 19, my assignment for the Corsair called for photographing the men’s and women’s water polo matches between SMC and Los Angeles Valley College. The contests were not close with LA Valley putting on a demonstration in the pool. The men’s team won 24-8 and the women’s team added to the dominance with a 14-4 victory over SMC at the Santa Monica Aquatics Center in Santa Monica, California, Wednesday, October 19, 2011.
LA Valley netted 38 combined goals. The photos below are a collection of images of the SMC goalies in net.
