The women’s water polo team is aiming for a win over American River College as it prepares face the team on Thursday, Oct. 16.

Head coach Sergio Macias said, “We played American River at the beginning of the season, so my goal and our team goal is to improve throughout the season.”

After losing to ARC at the season opener in Sacramento 10-6, the team has been working hard to prepare for its rematch at the home game.

Sophomore attacker Carla Harvey, who happens to have the most goals, steals and assists in the season so far, has been working hard alongside her teammates to try and improve for this week’s home game.

“We’re going to play a team that beat us at the beginning of the season and see if we can narrow the difference or even come up with a victory,” Macias said.

The team has an overall 5-13 record season so far and hopes to come up with a victory over the northern school on Thursday night.
