Cabrillo, UCSB Water Poloists Attract Nominations
KATHRYN NELSON, UCSB's sophomore water poloist, and her sister, RACHEL NELSON, Cabrillo's leading water polo scorer last winter, have each been nominated for Lompoc Locker Room's Female Athlete of the Year poll.
Kathryn, pictured here in Gaucho blue, scored seven goals in her freshman season for UCSB in 2008, a significant feat when considering the Gauchos had a weak team, a coaching shakeup and a poor record.
Rachel Nelson, in her senior year at Cabrillo, scored eight goals to lead the Q’s as they squashed St. Joseph 19-2 in the Los Padres League title match. Then she was named MVP of the Los Padres League and all-CIF. Then she signed a scholarship offer to UCSB to play alongside her sister. Here she is pictured as she signed with the Gauchos.
The last time the two played together was in 2007 when Cabrillo won the CIF title.
The Nelson sisters join Lompoc Tsunami swimmer Paola Hernandez, Lompoc High softball pitcher Jeana Carrillo, San Diego State water polo standouts Becca Ur and Heather Fenske, and Chelsea Cassulo, Lompoc High's CIF shot putter on the Lompoc Locker Room ballot. All the nominees to date can be see in the right hand column below our sponsors. The winners, as selected by our Blue Ribbon Panel, will be announced beginning December 20.
