Water Polo: Mercer Island Faces Puyallup in State Quarterfinal

The No. 1-seed Islanders have their eyes on the championship title after failing to reach this phase of the tournament last year, while No. 8-seed Puyallup seeks respect.

It's the Mercer Island versus the Puyallup on Friday, Nov. 9 in one of four quarterfinal match-ups in the 2012 Boys High School Water Polo State Championship.

The Islanders (11-1) will face the Vikings (8-3) at 3 p.m. at the Curtis High School Pool in University Place. Early rounds to reach the quarterfinals saw some very lop-sided scores by MI, Bellevue and Newport vs. opponents.

Fans can also follow the game live on the Mercer Island Boys Water Polo Twitter feed.

I'll be a bit more direct than Jerry. The new site is a mess. Visually it's extremely cluttered.Read More It's slow, very slow. There appear to be no RSS feeds, a major negative. Following a few links sometimes sends you to a different community's Patch site. And what happened with the editing staff. Unless I missed something, suddenly there are new editors without any warning. No matter what the circumstances, normally such a move would be accompanied by an announcement of some sort. Venice may be the greatest editor ever, but it looks like she is splitting her time among several Patch sites, so the odds are stacked against her. Her "latest activities" list even suggests that she is editing a Patch site down in the San Francisco Bay area. With all due respect, Patch sites should be hyper-local, and the best route to that is a local (i.e. Mercer Islander) editor.

The Jury is still out. I liked the "Old Patch". J
