Nic Prentice and Nicole Buist Were Named Athletes of the Week.
With fall sports wrapping up, the winter sports season begins in earnest. The weekly SBART press luncheon at Harry’s Cafe was dominated by college basketball.
Nicole Buist led the Santa Barbara High girls’ tennis team to the CIF-SS Division 2 Quarterfinals going 3-0 (6-3, 6-0, 6-0) in singles play in an 11-7 win over Hart and coming from behind for a singles win in a 10-8 victory over Vista Murrieta. Her efforts earned the SBART female athlete of the week award.
On the boys’ side, Nic Prentice caught fire in San Marcos boys’ water polo’s 8-3 victory over Riverside Poly in the CIF-SS Division 2 quarterfinals. He finished with five goals, four steals and two exclusions drawn. Previously, Prentice scored 3 goals in a 14-7 win over Northwood in the second round of the playoffs. The Royals will host Portola in the Semis on Wednesday at Dos Pueblos High.
