#10 Lady Titans overcome shaky start to finish with flourish.

The Lady Titan water polo team was struck by the winds last week loosing there pool for five days, but still had to play Schurr High at ELACC today. It took the Titan squad the first half to start playing with any rhythm, going into the half down by 2. In the 2nd half the lady titans shook off the rust and began to assert themselves. Lead by Kristin Charlton ( 6 goals 5 steals), the lady titans closed the gap with critical stops on defense and power plays. After a Schurr run put SM down by 2, Umi Nakamura took the game over and scored 3 goals in 45sec. to put San Marino up by one. With a minute left Schurr would score the equalizer to tie the game at 10 all. San Marino would not be able to capitalize on there last power play to win in regulation and the game would go into overtime.
In the overtime session, San Marino's momentum would prove to be too much for Schurr. The lady titans out scored Schurr 4-1 in OT to win 14-11. Nakamura had 5 goals and 4 steals. Diana Chang had 6 assist. Carla Bezjian had 9 saves and 2 steals.
