Shorecrest Water Polo team

The Shoreline high school water polo teams have enjoyed tremendous growth over the past few years under the leadership of Coach Mira Ho at Shorewood and Coach Nick Maxwell at Shorecrest. 

When the current Senior class were Freshman, there were only enough players for one combined Shorewood / Shorecrest team. This year, both schools have enough players to field Varsity and Junior Varsity teams.
