Also returning are Curtis Jarvis, who scored the third-most goals on the team last year (48) and Sean Ferrari, who scored 30 goals for the Waves in 2019.

Last Year: In 2019, the Waves had a banner year, winning 25 games while only dropping eight. After winning the regular season GCC title, the Waves swept through the conference tournament to win Pepperdine’s second GCC title, becoming the first program to win twice. The team appeared in its first NCAA Tournament since 1997, reaching the semifinal before falling to Pacific. Chris Dilworth and Kosa were named to the All-America second team, and seniors Marko Asic, Sean Thomas and Mate Toth were named honorable mentions.

Schroeder: Head Coach Terry Schroeder is in his 26th year of coaching at Pepperdine. His first stint of coaching was from 1986-2005, after which he took an eight-year break to coach the United States National Team. SOCCERWATER POLO - PAGE - PAGE2 2
