  • Italy Water Polo
    MY IMPRESSIONS OF ITALIAN WATER POLO by Dante Dettamanti WHY ITALY? Now that I have retired from coaching and wine making, I have a lot more leisure time on my hands. This has given me the opportunity to spend six months in my father’s native country, Italy. I am situated in the hot bed of Italian Water Polo, the Italian riviera of Liguria near Genoa. There are thirteen professional teams from the top two divisions A1 and A2 located with twenty-five miles of each other; including the top Italian club team, Pro-Recco. Not only is Recco the top team in Italy, but probably the best club in Europe. Italian teams are allowed three foreign players, but Recco has five. Two are Italian citizens by virtue of marrying Italian women. WHO’S PLAYING? Top players from all over the world come here to play; mostly because of the competition and partly because of the money. It is like the NBA of Water polo. What a great opportunity for water polo players to play against the best in the world, and get paid for it! Players from countries like Canada and Australia have benefited greatly from the experience. Canada has sent eight players to play in Europe. A result of this is that Canada has qualified for the Olympic Games; the first since Montreal, where they were the host country. I really have a hard time with US Water Polo’s reluctance to allow Americans to play in Europe. Gone are the times when we could stay home and only practice together, and then try to beat the more experienced Europeans.

    NATIONAL COLLEGIATE MEN’S WATER POLO CHAMPIONSHIPS RECORDS BOOK 2014 Championship 2 History 3 Won-Lost Records In Tournament Play 8 All-Time Results 9 2014 CHAMPIONSHIP HIGHLIGHTS Marshall scores in final minute to lift UCLA to national championship: The No. 1 UCLA men’s water polo team (29-3) brought home its ninth NCAA title with a 9-8 win against six-time defending champion USC on Sunday afternoon at UCSD’s Canyonview Aquatic Center. Sophomore Gordon Marshall netted the game-winner from two meters with 34 seconds remaining to put UCLA up by a goal. The Bruins got the stop on the next possession and then ran out the clock to capture the title. The 29 wins tied UCLA’s single-season record (29-5 in 1988) as the Bruins earned their first NCAA championship since 2004. The win against the Trojans improved UCLA’s record this season against USC to 4-1, which equalled its record against the Adam Krikorian-coached squad in 2002. Junior Danny McClintick led all scorers with four goals and was named the tournament’s most ourstanding player. Joining McClintick on the NCAA’s All- Tournament First Team were sophomores Gordon Marshall and Garrett Danner. Seniors Cristiano Mirarchi and Paul Reynolds were named to the second team. Top-seeded UCLA struck first when sophomore Chancellor Ramirez scored from the front court (4:25). Senior Daniel Lenhart then set up redshirt freshman Matt Farmer for a cross-cage score to put the Bruins up 2-0 (1:13) and end the scoring in the opening stanza.
