    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.
