Justin Lopez Lamb, son of our Sales and Operations Manager, Jim Lamb, has garnered huge praise this past year for his accomplishments in both water polo and swimming. Justin was selected as the Visalia Times Delta boys Swimmer of the year for the second year in a row. He is also very accomplished in water polo and was named to both the Fresno Bee's all-Bee swimming and water polo teams. Justin will be attending Fresno Pacific College this fall and will be swimming at the collegiate level.
WATER POLO
need to know: The East Yosemite League MVP and first-team All-Valley selection powered the Emperors to the Central Section Division II final with 115 goals, 22 assists and 87 steals. The career 349-goal scorer is considering a college career at Pepperdine, Occidental or Cal Lutheran.
He said it: "He's the pivot for everything. Every offensive possession goes through him, whether he's on the perimeter or in the hole. A lot of our guys get wide-open shots because of the double- and triple-teams he faces." — Dinuba coach Kyle Yano-Goss
SWIMMING
