CAMBRIDGE, MA - In a rematch from Wednesday's defeat to Wagner, the Iona Water Polo team was unable to upend the Seahawks in the opening contest of the Harvard Invite, falling 19-5. 

Andrew Brozovic notched two goals on two shots and was ejected twice. Patrick Hudak, Quinn Lloyd and German Rodriguez each tallied a goal. Brett Hofer was held scoreless on five attempts and Philip Wachowski drew a team-high three kickouts.

The Gaels went 2-9 on the man-up advantage and allowed three goals on 10 chances while down a man.

Jorge Andres Torres made four saves and allowed nine goals in the first half. Michael Banks relieved Torres, making five stops and added an assist.
