Danny Orona is a 5 foot 6 inch, 160 pound driver from Los Amigos High School who starts on the men's water polo team. “Last year, he really didn't get much playing time but he kept working in practice every single day,” head coach Monty McCord said. "He makes things happen when he's in there. He's a great defensive player (and) he's willing to do a lot of the dirty work not everyone is willing to do." See how he answered the questions.

Scoring update 5

The Pirates are not going to give up its 12-game winning streak easily.

OCC's shortstop Beck Wheeler led off the inning with a single hoping to start a ninth inning rally.

Scott Hong made great contact but it dropped in the center fielder's glove.

Next up was Ricky Stokes and he hit a single between third base and shortstop to bring up the go-ahead run to the plate.

Ryan Dunn, on a full count, popped out to the first baseman.

With only one out left, Pirate head coach John Altobelli decided to pinch hit for D.J. Arellano for freshman Gary Detwiler.

Detwiler, on a 1-2 count, struck out looking and ended the game.

The Santa Ana College Dons have taken the lead.

Santa Ana's catcher James Davis hit a deep fly ball to center fielder Mykal Stokes to score the go-ahead run.

The next batter, Julian Duran, hit a single over a jumping Pirate third baseman Drew Hillman to score another run.

The Dons are leading the game and the Pirates are down to its last three outs.

If I had a hat on, then it would be the time to "rally-fy" it.

Hopefully shortstop Beck Wheeler can start off a rally.

The Santa Ana College Dons are not going back home without a fight. The Dons have tied it up 2-2.

In the top of the eight inning, Santa Ana's Julian Duran led off the inning with a walk and later scored off Marcus Piazzisi's single.

The Don's threaten with runners on third and first but the Pirates got out of the inning.

EDIT
Coast threatened to score in the bottom of the eight inning with two outs but Brett Wallach struck out swinging leaving Mykal Stokes on second base.

In the top of the ninth inning, Santa Ana's Derek Eligio led off the inning with a single down the middle.

The next batter, Stephen Gonzalez, hit a double down the left field line.

That would be the last batter OCC's Calvin Drummond faced as he was replaced with Brett Williams. The score is still 2-2.
