As the Olympics got underway in Paris last weekend, San Diego siblings Sofia and Seth Holman each earned gold medals on championship teams at the annual USA Water Polo Junior Olympics at Stanford University.
Sofia Holman, named the CIF San Diego Section Player of the Year last season, scored two goals for SET (Saddleback-El Toro) in a 17-8 title victory over Contra Costa Lamorinda in the girls’ age division on Sunday.
The tourney represented a send-off in junior play for Sofia Holman, who is heading to Brown University this fall. She helped lead Bishop’s to its sixth straight Open Division title last winter.
Seth Holman made his tourney debut in the 10U coed age group, the youngest level, and recorded three goals in a 9-5 finals victory over Irvine’s Patriot Navy. Del Mar went 8-0 in the tourney to finish unbeaten on the season.
