- Share via
A highly successful season ended for Laguna when it fell, 3-2, to Calvary Chapel on Feb. 8. in an Orange League one-game playoff match that determined the league’s final entry into the CIF playoffs.
Courtney Capobianco and Laura Renault scored and Lauren Caris recorded 11 saves for Laguna.
“Of course we were disappointed with the loss, but the girls left everything on the field in that game,” Laguna Coach Bill Rolfing said. “I’m very proud of this team.”
The Breakers posted the third-most victories (10, with 54 goals) in the 26-year history of the sport at Laguna, Rolfing said. Along the way, they defeated and tied champion Costa Mesa in two league contests.
It was the first league loss suffered by Costa Mesa — formerly of the Golden West League — in five years.

“I’m confident going into this match,” Laguna Coach Patrick Coyne said. “I think we will do quite well.”
