Girls Water Polo interest meeting will be held in the AC this Thursday at lunch. If you are interested in joining this team that placed 3rd in state please come learn more.
The Rams entered the 2019 Girls High School Water Polo State Championship as underdogs and emerged 3rd in State! They started with a play-in win against Rogers to secure a spot in the championship bracket. They went on to lose to the current state champions, Curtis High School, before beating Bainbridge Island Friday night. The final day of competition started with a nail-biter win against Mercer Island (quadruple overtime!) which was followed by an exciting win over Bellevue.
The Ingraham water polo program is only in its second year of existence. This 3rd place title represents not only the dedication and hard work of the athletes and coach but also the rousing support of the IHS fans and athletic department! The team thanks the entire Ram community for a fantastic season!

Water polo is a competitive team sport with two teams, each consisting of 7 players in the water. Like in basketball, players play both offense and defense with the objective being to score the most goals. The game consists of 4 seven minute quarters. We aim to have a ton of fun while learning to play better as a team and do a little winning on the side. Our team's focus is to develop new players and teach the principles of the game.
Ingraham Rams first ever Girls water polo game
