Kennifer to Harvard

The most prolific girls scorer in the water in Monterey County is headed to Harvard University to pursue a water polo career.
Devan Kennifer had chooses. Stanford, Princeton and Santa Clara all expressed interest. But the USA Water Polo High School All-American liked the atmosphere along the St. Charles River just outside Boston.
During a four-year career at Santa Catalina, Kennifer broke the single-season school record three times, finishing her senior year with 111 goals.
Over the course of four years, Kennifer compiled a school and county record 411 goals for the Cougars, leading them to the programs first league title in 2006.
Named to the all-Central Coast Section water polo team all four years, she was the Tri-County Athletic League Most Valuable Player three straight years. She was also an academic All-American.
Kennifer will be in the lineup Wednesday when the Santa Catalina basketball team hosts Carmel.
