Avery Montiel
It all started when at the age of 10 Avery came home from Junior Guards and said, “I want to play water polo!” The next week she was enrolled and played her first year as a 10U goalie followed by two more years in the field.
Avery is a hard worker and always gives her best. She values being a team player and prides herself on making a good assist. She shows the most intensity with her defensive play and her natural speed and stamina make her a great asset to her team.
Avery wants to thank her coaches for helping to shape who she is as a player. Avery says from Kelcie Ferreira she learned how to play with awareness and from Rob Carver she learned the importance of being a team player.
Avery also wants to thank her teammates who consistently play at a high level and inspire her with their strong work ethic. Avery is very honored to be Athlete of the Month and loves being a part of Laguna Beach Water Polo Foundation.
