Comments from College

A Compendium from the College Avenue Carousel:

• The Lompoc Girls Soccer teams both recorded victories over Santa Maria on Tuesday (Jan 15) -- the varsity jumped out to a 6-0 halftime lead and coasted to a 10-0 final. The JV, on the other hand, started off slowly, dropping to a 1-0 deficit before exploding late in the game for a 5-1 win. Scoring for the varsity Braves were Lindsey Eckersley (2), Stephanie Miranda (2), Sameeha Husayn, Elicity Fabing, Lily Zuniga (from 25-30 yards out), 'Sonny' Estrada, Veronica Villareal, and Teresa Carreno ; Jennifer Justice (3), Brittany Fabing, & Sonia Pantoja scored for the junior varsity.

The Girls will host a fundraiser BBQ & Bake sale in the Walgreens parking lot on north 'H' st this Saturday from 10 am to 2 pm .






The recently renamed Lompoc Tsunami Aquatics will be holding an event this weekend (the 19th & 21st) to raise money to pay for practice facility lane fees. The group hopes to raise part of the $6,000 annual cost with a " Lap-A-Thon", with individual swimmers securing pledges for laps swum. Donations and pledges are always welcome. Lompoc Aquatic Center director (and Tsunami coach) also announced that there will be additional open swim hours this coming Monday (the 21st).

On Wednesday, the Cabrillo Girls Water Polo team defeated an over matched Santa Maria squad eighteen to four. Rachel Nelson had five goals; Celeste Sazzani, Cloe Huggins, Jessica Carreon, and Maggie Carrol each had two goals. The Saints only have eight girls in the program - all sophomores except for senior goalie Liz Lashbaugh (who had six first half saves). Hence there was no junior varsity action.
