PASADENA (Feb. 26, 2020) – Sophomore Sophie Devoe (La Jolla, Calif. / Bishop's) of the Caltech women's water polo team scored twice for Caltech in Wednesday's home opener against the University of Redlands. 

Caltech's first goal came with 18 seconds to go in the third quarter. Devoe took a pass from freshman Amanda Piyapanee (Southlake, Texas / Carroll) and drove the ball into the net from the right side. Devoe later scored in a similar fashion, this time off a pass from senior Sunny Cui (Vancouver, B.C. / Sir Winston Churchill Secondary). The Beavers' leading scorer from a year ago also led the team with an additional four shots. Freshman Polina Verkhovodova (Portland, Ore. / Portland Community College) and sophomore Yuying Lin (Scarborough, Ontario / Victoria Park C.I.) generated some strong opportunities of their own with each playing adding three shots. Sophomore goalkeeper Zoe Rock (Chappaqua, N.Y. / Horace Greeley) had seven saves and one steal in her season debut.

Head Coach Jon Bonafede and the Beavers will have some time to compose themselves before traveling to Occidental College on Wednesday, Mar. 4.
