The Burnaby Barracudas medalled in all four age groups, including a pair of gold medals, at the B.C. summer swimming water polo provincials in Nanaimo last week.
Burnaby's under-14 and u-16 coed teams both won gold, defeating runner-up Abbotsford Whalers in their respective finals on Aug. 15.
The u-14 Barracudas defeated Abbotsford 8-2 in the B.C. title match led by a pair of hat tricks by Luka Maletic and Dasha Strigoun.
Maletic tallied all three of this goals in the opening quarter to give Burnaby an early 4-0 advantage. Keith Jung and Ty Koch also scored for the 'Cudas.
Alex Kalajdzic had a solid game in the Burnaby net.
The u-16 Barracudas had an exciting 5-4 victory over the Whalers in the championship final.
Gareth Jones, who was one five swimmers, including Stewart Crombie, Nabil Ali-Mohammad, Sade Alexis and Isabelle Joaquin, playing up in the u-18 gold-medal match just minutes before, scored the game-winning goal with his second marker of the match with less than three minutes left.
Crombie opened the scoring at the 15-second mark. Maletic, playing up from u-14, tallied later in the first quarter to give Burnaby a 2-0 lead. Maria Strigoun also scored in a tight fourth quarter.
The underage u-18 team lost a tight 11-10 decision in overtime to Coquitlam, a team with five national-level players in the lineup, in the provincial final.
Jones counted five goals, while Henry Mackenzie added four. Leo Shen tied the score 10-10 with just 16 seconds left in regulation time to send the game into extra time.
"The 18-and-under team battled it out in a David-and-Goliath situation," said Burnaby coach Patrick Geary. "It was an incredible effort."
Burnaby's u-12 team also came home with a silver medal following a 10-8 loss to Crescent Beach in the provincial final.
Wilson Chieng and Nemanja Ivezic were the top goalgetters for the mainly first-year Burnaby players in the game. The Barracudas' roster included four swimmers eight years old or younger.
