  • UCLA Women's Water Polo
    UCLA Women’s Water Polo – 2007 NCAA Champions The 2007 UCLA women’s water polo team enjoyed tremendous success, winning both the MPSF Tournament title and the NCAA Championship, the Bruins’ third-consecutive NCAA title. Senior attacker Kelly Rulon broke the school’s all-time scoring record, registering 70 goals for the third consecutive season to finish with 237 career goals. UCLA’s NCAA Championship marked the final collegiate game for five Bruins - Molly Cahill, Emily Feher, Kacy Kunkel, Jenna Murphy and Kelly Rulon. All five players contributed to each of UCLA’s NCAA championship seasons in 2005, 2006 and 2007. Rulon, who redshirted the 2004 season while training for the summer Olympics in Athens, Greece, helped lead the program to the 2003 NCAA title as a true freshman. The 2007 Bruins raced to a 10-0 record by late February, registering wins against California, Hawaii, Indiana, USC, Pacific, Santa Clara and UC Irvine. In the team’s final contest at the UC Irvine Invitational, UCLA dropped its first match of the season to Stanford, 8-4. In early April, the Bruins faced both USC and Stanford on consecutive weekends in MPSF play. UCLA registered a crucial 8-7 victory against USC on April 7, before dropping a 7- 6 decision to Stanford in overtime the following Saturday. With a mark of 20-2 after that loss, the Bruins never looked back. In the MPSF Tournament, UCLA cruised past Long Beach State, 17-5, on day one. In their semifinal match against USC, the Bruins won by a 10-9 margin.

    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.

    Water Polo NATIONAL COLLEGIATE WOMEN’S Highlights Stanford wins back-to-back titles: A tough angle, a one-goal lead, and just more than one minute to go in the 2012 NCAA Women’s Water Polo Championship stared senior Pallavi Menon in the face. She had three problems, but her aim wasn’t one. Menon’s shot across the goal bounced off the far post and into the cage, sealing Stanford’s second consecutive NCAA title with a 6-4 victory May 13 against Southern California. The Cardinal (26-2) added its third women’s water polo national championship to its collection, and the 103rd NCAA title overall for Stan- ford. Stanford previously won women’s water polo titles in 2002 and 2011. The victory came two years after the Cardinal had lost the 2010 national title game 10-9 to Southern California in the same Aztec Aqua- plex pool. Menon’s second goal of the game, with 1:11 remaining, put the Trojans into hurry-up mode, forcing them to take a quick shot on the next possession. The Cardinal defense, anchored by tournament MVP Kate Baldoni, who made 15 saves in the championship game, held fi rm to preserve the win. Baldoni earned the tournament’s top honor after making a total of 29 saves and allowing only nine goals in Stanford’s wins over Pomona- Pitzer, UC Irvine and Southern California. Her saves in the title game continually kept the Cardinal’s slim leads from evaporating as the Stanford off ense engaged in a physical battle for position on the other end.
