The Laguna Beach Water Polo Club's 14-and-under boys' team captured the silver medal from last weekend's Winterfest tournament at Northwood High in Irvine.
Laguna's 14U boys competed in the AA Division, the toughest of all divisions with 16 teams.
Laguna scored wins Saturday over Los Angeles-based Foothill Water Polo Club, Elite Water Polo Club of Murrieta Valley and Clovis of Central California, but lost in the division final to Rose Bowl.
"We are extremely pleased by the performance of this highly skilled Laguna team," said Chad Beeler, administrator of LBWPC. "To bring home a silver medal from Winterfest definitely sends a message that these boys are contenders leading up to Junior Olympics this summer."
The Laguna boys' 14U team is: Jakob Colladay, Ryan Decker, Graham Peleaux, Garrett Hartley, Cade Baldridge, Greyson Benson, Trent Sadle, Nolan del Toro, Sean Whitlock, Aki Andersen, Noah Herbst and Coach Jose Stalin Reyes.
