Team U.S.A., powered by three Bay Area athletes, soared past Team Britain in Thursday's U.S. men's water polo match.
Captain Tony Azevedo scored four of the team's 13 goals which helped U.S.A. remain undefeated in the London Games: final score, 13-7.
Azevedo is a Stanford graduate and four-time Olympian.
Moraga's Peter Varellas, also a Stanford grad, and Cal grad John Mann each scored one goal.
The win Thursday puts the U.S. on top of Group B with six points, one ahead of gold medal-favorite Serbia, with two preliminary stage matches to go.
The Americans, the runners-up four years ago in Beijing, seized control of the match early, jumping out to a 7-0 lead early in the second quarter and cruising from there.
