The 41st annual Henry Stuart South Bay Water Polo Tournament opens Friday at the El Segundo Plunge and Mira Costa High.
The 16-team tournament includes some intriguing first-round matchups, including Chadwick vs. Crescenta Valley, Mira Costa vs. Torrance and Peninsula vs. San Marino.
The first round and quarterfinals take place on Friday, with the semifinal, third-place and championship games taking place on Saturday at El Segundo. Semifinal games are slated to take place at 10:40 a.m. and 11:45 a.m.. The third-place game is scheduled for 5:35 p.m. and the championship game is set for 7 p.m.
Mira Costa won the tournament last year, defeating Crescenta Valley, 10-6, in the final. The Mustangs appear to have a good chance to repeat as tournament champions.
