Old Pueblo Routs Orchard Hill 14-9 In Hall Of Fame Polo Action Friday At International Polo Club Palm Beach

WELLINGTON, Florida – Eight-goaler Jeff Hall and substitute Kris Kampsen scored five goals each to lead Old Pueblo over Orchard Hill 14-9 in a 22-goal Hall of Fame Cup polo match Friday at International Polo Club Palm Beach.

Hall scored three consecutive goals in a 77-second span in the fifth chukker to give Old Pueblo a 12-8 margin. Orchard Hill’s Julio Arellano scored with 5:10 remaining in the fifth chukker to cut the lead to 9-8. But Hall took over, converting a penalty shot with 4:15 left, then scoring on a breakaway from the ensuing throw-in and adding a forehand on the next possession to virtually clinch the victory.

Kampsen and Brandon Phillips scored midway through the sixth chukker to round out Old Pueblo’s scoring.

Kampsen, a 6-goaler, was filling in for the injured Nicolas Roldan, a 7-goaler who hurt his knee and ankle during a practice earlier in the week. Roldan is expected to be sidelined for at least a week.

Phillips added three goals for Old Pueblo (1-0) while team patron John Hall did not score.

Arellano, an 8-goaler, finished with a game-high seven goals to lead Orchard Hill (0-1). Ten-goaler Eduardo Heguy, playing in his first game of the season, and Chris Stratemann, scored one goal each. Orchard Hill patron Steve Van Andel did not score.
