The Bruins finished the year at 21-4 while the Trojans dropped to 27-4. Seniors Alex Roelse and Matt Farmer led the Bruins with a game-high two goals each. Redshirt sophomore Alex Wolf played the entire game in the cage for UCLA, registering 10 saves while allowing just five goals, two on Trojan power plays. Matteo Morelli scored the first goal of the game for Southern California on a power play at the 6:42 mark. Marin Dasic made it 2-0 with a goal from the front court (1:51). Freshman Quinten Osborne got the Bruins on the board with a goal at two meters (1:33) to trim the Trojans’ lead to 2-1. Zach D’Sa scored on a cross-cage shot to open the scoring in the second period (4:37), giving the Trojans a 3-1 advantage. But Roelse scored from the front court with 21 seconds left to cut the lead to 3-2 at the break. Farmer tied things up at 3-3 (3:33) off a nice feed from Roelse into two meters. But James Walters answered immediately with a goal (3:05) to put Southern California up 4-3. Senior Max Irving then scored from the front court after an ordinary foul (1:56) to tie the game at 4-4. Roelse then provided his second score of the game and the Bruins’ first power play goal to give UCLA its first lead of the game (0:44) at 5-4, ending the scoring in the third. Blake Edwards tied the game at 5-5 with a power play score (6:47) to open the scoring in the fourth. Farmer then scored a power play goal (6:05) to put the Bruins back in front, 6-5. Both teams made several defensive stops down the stretch. But none was bigger than the Bruins’ stop in the final seconds on a Trojan power play. Later, Wolf collected a ball from a Bruin teammate and noticed that Southern California goalie McQuin Baron was out of the cage on the other end and fired a shot that scored with just two seconds remaining to provide the 7-5 final. Wolf was named the Most Outstanding Player of the championship. Pacific’s Luke Pavillard led the tournament in scoring with 10 goals before the Tigers were eliminated in the semifinals. 2017 RESULTS Opening Round Pacific 16, Pomona-Pitzer 2 Harvard 15, George Washington 13 Pacific 13, UC Davis 12 Southern California 16, Harvard 4 Semifinals UCLA 11, Pacific 9 California 11, Southern California 12 Championship UCLA 7, Southern California 5 2017 Championship 2 HISTORY RESULTS Year Champion (Record) Coach Score Runner-Up Host or Site Attendance 1969 UCLA (19-0) Bob Horn 5-2 California Long Beach, Calif. — 1970 UC Irvine (27-2) Ted Newland 7-6 (3 OT) UCLA Long Beach, Calif. — 1971 UCLA (18-1) Bob Horn 5-3 San Jose St. Long Beach, Calif. — 1972 UCLA (19-1) Bob Horn 10-5 UC Irvine New Mexico — 1973 California (25-1) Pete Cutino 8-4 UC Irvine Long Beach, Calif. — 1974 California (25-2) Pete Cutino 7-6 UC Irvine Long Beach, Calif. — 1975 California (22-6) Pete Cutino 9-8 UC Irvine Long Beach, Calif. 3,326 1976 Stanford (20-2) Art Lambert 13-12 UCLA Long Beach, Calif. 3,050 1977 California (29-3) Pete Cutino 8-6 UC Irvine Brown 765 1978 Stanford (26-1-1) Dante Dettamanti 7-6 (3 OT) California Long Beach, Calif. 2,541 1979 UC Santa Barbara (27-2-1) Pete Snyder 11-3 UCLA Long Beach, Calif. 2,542 1980 Stanford (28-2-1) Dante Dettamanti 8-6 California Long Beach, Calif. 2,401 1981 Stanford (31-0) Dante Dettamanti 17-6 Long Beach St. Long Beach, Calif. 2,579 1982 UC Irvine (30-0) Ted Newland 7-4 Stanford Long Beach, Calif. 2,128 1983 California (29-3-2) Pete Cutino 10-7 Southern California Long Beach, Calif. 2,697 1984 California (26-4-1) Pete Cutino 9-8 Stanford Long Beach, Calif. 3,214 1985 Stanford (25-4) Dante Dettamanti 12-11 (2 OT) UC Irvine Long Beach, Calif. 3,410 1986 Stanford (36-0) Dante Dettamanti 9-6 California Long Beach, Calif. 3,491 1987 California (27-3) Pete Cutino 9-8 (OT) Southern California Long Beach, Calif. 4,398 1988 California (33-3) Pete Cutino 14-11 UCLA Long Beach, Calif. 5,073 1989 UC Irvine (27-6) Ted Newland 9-8 California Indianapolis 3,421 1990 California (29-1) Steve Heaston 8-7 Stanford Long Beach, Calif. 3,185 1991 California (26-1) Steve Heaston 7-6 UCLA Long Beach, Calif. 3,502 1992 California (31-0) Steve Heaston 12-11 (3 OT) Stanford Long Beach, Calif. 3,517 1993 Stanford (24-6) Dante Dettamanti 11-9 Southern California Long Beach, Calif. 3,165 1994 Stanford (27-1) Dante Dettamanti 14-10 Southern California Long Beach, Calif. 3,608 1995 UCLA (20-6) Guy Baker 10-8 California Stanford 1,903 1996 UCLA (24-6) Guy Baker 8-7 Southern California UC San Diego 2,790 1997 Pepperdine (25-3) Terry Schroeder 8-7 (2 OT) Southern California Fort Lauderdale, Fla. 927 1998 Southern California (25-3) John Williams/Jovan Vavic 9-8 (2 OT) Stanford Newport Beach, Calif. 3,132 1999 UCLA (22-3) Guy Baker/Adam Krikorian 6-5 Stanford La Jolla, Calif. 4,441 2000 UCLA (19-7) Guy Baker/Adam Krikorian 11-2 UC San Diego Malibu, Calif. 3,049 2001 Stanford (22-1) Dante Dettamanti 8-5 UCLA Stanford 4,503 2002 Stanford (24-5) John Vargas 7-6 California Loyola Marymount 4,767 2003 Southern California (24-3) Jovan Vavic 9-7 (OT) Stanford Stanford 4,280 2004 UCLA (25-3) Adam Krikorian 10-9 (OT) Stanford Stanford 3,044 2005 Southern California (26-1) Jovan Vavic 3-2 Stanford Bucknell 1,656 2006 California (31-4) Kirk Everist 7-6 Southern California Loyola Marymount 4,552 2007 California (28-4) Kirk Everist 8-6 Southern California Stanford 4,369 2008 Southern California (29-0) Jovan Vavic 7-5 Stanford Stanford 2,660 2009 Southern California (26-2) Jovan Vavic 7-6 UCLA Princeton 1,822 2010 Southern California (28-2) Jovan Vavic 12-10 (2 OT) California California 2,135 2011 Southern California (24-3) Jovan Vavic 7-4 UCLA California 2,184 2012 Southern California (29-0) Jovan Vavic 11-10 UCLA Southern California 2,520 2013 Southern California (28-4) Jovan Vavic 12-11 (2 OT) Pacific Stanford 2,212 2014 UCLA (29-3) Adam Wright 9-8 Southern California La Jolla, Calif. 3,134 2015 UCLA (30-0) Adam Wright 10-7 Southern California Los Angeles, Calif. 2,218 2016 California (23-4) Kirk Everist 11-8 Southern California Berkeley, Calif. 1,847 2017 UCLA (21-4) Adam Wright 7-5 Southern California Los Angeles, Calif.
