Kelsey OBrien
Omar Montalvo
Kelsey O’Brien and Omar Montalvo were named Santa Barbara Athletic Round Table Athletes of the Week at Monday’s press luncheon for outstanding performances during the week between Christmas and New Years Day.
O’Brien led the Santa Barbara High girls water polo team to a second-place finish at the ultra-competitive Newport Holiday Cup. O’Brien scored four goals, including the game-winner, in the Dons’ 7-6 semifinal upset win over No. 3 Newport Harbor.
Montalvo was rewarded for scoring six goals in a two-day tournament, leading Dos Pueblos’ boys soccer team to a 3-1 record.
?He was a one-man wrecking ball this tournament,? said Chargers head coach Matt York at the time. ?We?re just finding a way to get it to his foot and he really turning on it.?
