2016 Prep Eastern's Champions!!!

The Gonzaga Varsity Water Polo Team won Prep Eastern's for the second time in program history. The team defeated McDonogh 11-8 (OT), Malvern Prep 12-6 and then The Hill School 9-8 to win the tournament. Like the 2011 team that won Prep Eastern's for the first time in program history, the team stands on the shoulders of all those who came before us and made the program what it is today!
