THE UNDER-18 boys’ Barbados water polo club team retained their crown against visitors team Lamar High School at the end of the Darren Eastmond Barbados Invitational Tournament.

The tournament, which began last Thursday and ended yesterday, saw the local boys pulling out all their tactics two weeks ahead of the CARIFTA water polo competition. They won three matches, drew one and lost one.

In an epic final match at the Aquatic Centre, the visiting team from Houston, Texas were the first to score. They led momentarily 2-0 before Barbados’ Gabriel Mayers scored back-to-back goals to level the score at the end of the first quarter.

Lamar High again led the scoring in the second quarter, but the Bajan blue caps took the lead, ending the quarter ahead by one goal. (RA)
