DAY IN SPORTS: H.-W. ABLE TO SETTLE SCORE.

Byline: Daily News

The Harvard-Westlake boys' water polo has held a grudge against Corona del Mar of Newport Beach since losing to the Sea Kings by a goal in last season's Southern Section Div. I semifinals.

The Wolverines of Studio City had their opportunity for revenge Thursday and took advantage, winning 8-4 in a nonleague game on the road behind three goals by Eric Vreeland.

``We've had this date circled on our calendars for a long time,'' Harvard- Westlake coach Rich Corso said. ``We have some big games this season but this is one of the bigger ones.''

Jay Connolly made 12 saves in goal for Harvard-Westlake (6-0), which turns its attention to defending its Mission League title, something it has done for the past six seasons.

In girls' golf:

--Notre Dame 252, Valencia 257: Freshman Faith De Guzman shot even-par 37 in her high school debut to lead Notre Dame of Sherman Oaks (1-0), which played without returning All-Area selection Mayumi Kobayashi, who reached the CIF/WSCGA final last season.

Monica Molloy added a personal-best 49 for Notre Dame, and Stevy Loy shot 43 and Michelle Mannix added a 44 for Valencia (1-2) in the nonleague match at Woodley Lakes GC.

--Saugus 216, Quartz Hill 256: Melanie De Leon shot 1-over par with three birdies, and Stephanie Aston also had a 1-over-par with a birdie for defending Foothill League champion Saugus (3-0) at par-36 Robinson Ranch GC.

--Cleveland 247, Taft 268: Cleveland of Reseda, which finished winless in the Valley II league last year, remained undefeated in its four matches this season with a victory at the par-27 Van Nuys Golf Course.

--Camarillo 232, Simi Valley 251: Genn Torres shot an even-par 35 for Camarillo (1-0) in its nonleague victory at Spanish Hills Country Club.

In girls' tennis:

--Campbell Hall 15, Notre Dame 3: Host Campbell Hall of North Hollywood (4-0) won the nonleague match despite playing without No. 1 singles player Daron Moore, a Tennessee-bound senior who was out due to an illness.

Ali Krasnopolsky, Cheyenne Reveche and Lauren Shearer each played well in Moore's absence, winning their respective matches 6-0, 6-0, 6-0. In doubles, Alison Wagner/Katarina Reveche and Kimberly DeLeon/Yena Kim won in straight sets.

Campbell Hall returns eight players from last season's team that lost 10-8 to Brentwood in the Southern Section Div. III finals.

--Calabasas 17, Moorpark 1: Erin Wiesener, Helen Kolpakov and Eileen Chang each won singles in straight sets in a nonleague match for host Calabasas (2-0), which is ranked No. 1 by the Daily News.

In girls' volleyball:

--Oaks Christian d. St. Bonaventure 3-1: Julie Rubenstein, who orally committed to Pepperdine, had 15 kills, 26 digs in a nonleague victory for host Oaks Christian of Westlake Village (2-0).

In men's soccer:

--The Master's 6, Holy Names 1: Adam Sultan, a Desert Christian High of Lancaster graduate, scored three goals - two in the first half on assists from Dalton Spivey and Luke Barnes - as The Master's (2-5-1) won a nonconference game at home.
