  • Water Polo NATIONAL COLLEGIATE WOMEN’S
    Water Polo NATIONAL COLLEGIATE WOMEN’S Highlights Stanford captures its third NCAA title in four years, beats UCLA 9-5: For a team that only lost once all season and outscored its op- ponents 346 to 151, Stanford has had its share of adversity. But overcoming challenges has become a point of pride for the team and the Cardinal did it again May 11, winning the NCAA champion- ship by defeating No. 2 UCLA 9-5. The No. 1 ranked Cardinal (25-1) were down 5-3 at halftime, but scored six goals in the second half, including three goals in 1:23. “The story with this team is they have been unifi ed all season,” coach John Tanner said. “We’ve been down a lot in games and the faith they have in one another and that is really unusual and inspiring.” It was the team’s fourth championship and third in four years. The team is the only one that has made the NCAA tournament every year since 2001. Ironically, the only team to beat them was UCLA Feb. 23 and it was that loss that was the turning point of the season. “I really have to thank them,” Tanner said. “I think that really pulled us even closer as a team.” The members had a meeting and everyone talked about how the loss aff ected them. “I don’t think there was one thing we pointed to,” said senior Annika Dries, who scored three goals in the championship game. “We heard from everyone from player 1 to 21.” Tanner talked about the team’s transformation after that loss.

Cargo-container imports this summer at the nation’s ports are setting all-time highs with retailers and importers concerned that the Trump administration could impose tar- iffs ranging from 10 percent to 25 percent on $267 billion in goods at any time.
