Buchanan water polo back in the water, primed for big season
Buchanan Polo Completes perfect 10-0 Trace Season, No 1 playoff seed

Buchanan polo completes perfect 10-0 TRAC season, No. 1 playoff seed
Buchanan completed one of the most dominate water polo league seasons in recent memory when it beat Clovis North 10-3 on Oct. 25, wrapping up a perfect 10-0 season. BHS finished the regular season 22-4 and were rewarded with the No. 1 seed in the D-I Central Section playoffs which begin Nov. 1 with the championship scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 9.
Not only did the Bears (21-4 overall) not lose to a Central Section team but they did so in dominating fashion, outscoring opponents 162-36. Clovis North finished a strong second, their only two losses in league to Buchanan. They outscored opponents 130-71 during league.
Buchanan has had its eyes on the prize all season: a second consecutive D-I Valley title. However, a strong mental approach has kept them locked in on solely the next game on the schedule.
“Winning the TRAC championship was another great accomplishment on the season but as we’ve always done we’re going to keep looking one game at a time,” said star junior Kaleb Archer, who has scored 80 goals this season. “We just try to be a better team than we were the day before and if we keep doing that and play the game we know how then we are a tough team to beat.”
Team cohesiveness is a big factor in the team’s success so far.
“I know it always gets said about a lot of teams but this team has a chemistry like no other I’ve ever been a part of,” continues Archer. “No one on our team has an individual agenda we’re all pushing in the same direction and once it all comes together it’s special.”
Defense does it for Buchanan in D-I boys water polo repeat
