A Los Angeles water polo star has gone underground after being accused of sexually abusing and racially tormenting his black teammate. Lucca Van der Woude — a former Harvard-Westlake School standout once considered a future Olympic prospect — is in hiding after Aidan Romain filed a bombshell lawsuit. The 18-year-old, who is the son of longtime film assistant director Thomas “Basti” Van der Woude, was nowhere to be found last week when The Post visited his parents’ palatial home in Costa Mesa.
