Grace Markus scored six goals to help lead the South Pasadena High School varsity girls’ water polo team past visiting Monrovia, 16-5, during a Rio Hondo League game on Monday.

South Pasadena (3-4 league record, 3-5 overall) is scheduled to conclude league action by visiting Blair High of Pasadena on Friday, Feb. 4, at 4 p.m. With only two league games left, the third-place Tigers are unlikely to gain any ground on league-leading Temple City (8-1 in league) or La Cañada (7-1 in league) before the end of the regular season this week.
LA CAÑADA 15, TIGERS 7
South Pasadena lost a league rematch at La Cañada last Thursday, Jan. 27, as Markus led with three goals, Encinas scored twice and Petty finished with one goal.
