Over the last month, we have spotlighted the All-State teams in the various spring sports that finished their seasons. Today, we showcase the Missouri Water Polo All-District teams for both the boys and girls.
It was another outstanding season in the pool for St. Louis University High School as the Jr. Bills extended their Missouri Water Polo district winning streak to 22 with a 13-8 victory over Parkway West in the title game.
On the girls’ side, Oakville scored five goals in the final four minutes of the game to defeat Marquette 11-8 as the Tigers claimed their first MWP district title after losing to the Mustangs last year in the first-ever girls’ championship game.
Below is a listing of all the award winners and the All-District teams for both the boys’ and girls’ as voted on by the league coaches.
