Leopards Suffer Home Defeat to Regals

The University of La Verne concluded Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference regular season play with a 13-2 defeat against Cal Lutheran in women's water polo action Wednesday evening at La Verne Aquatics Center

A goal in the first quarter by the Leopards' Stephanie Tuning would help keep the match deadlocked heading into the second frame.  However, Cal Lutheran would hold the Leopards scoreless while adding three goals before the half to go up 4-1. 

The Regals continued their momentum and attacked the net tacking on seven goals in the third while holding La Verne scoreless.  Melissa Pryor would add a goal in the fourth for the Leopards but Cal Lutheran would score twice more to conclude the contest.

Leopard goalkeeper Lauren Shepard was active at the net recording nine saves overall.

La Verne heads into the SCIAC tournament with an 11-21 overall and 1-7 conference record.  Tournament play will begin April 26, time and opponent yet to be determined.
