  • Water Polo National Collegiate Women’S
    Water Polo NATIONAL COLLEGIATE WOMEN’S Highlights Southern California Takes Championship Over Stanford, 10-9: Southern California coach Jovan Vavic was still soggy from the celebratory dip in the pool after his team’s 10-9 NCAA women’s water polo championship-clinching defeat of Stanford May 16. He was also all smiles with Women of Troy seniors Tumua Anae and Kally Lucas on either side of him. “When you’re a coach for so many years, you think it’s going to get old,” he said. “But I’m as excited about this finish, this championship as [2004]. It doesn’t get old. In fact, in some ways I was more excited for this one because we waited so long.” Past frustrations were exorcised at the San Diego State University Aztec Aquaplex in a defeat of top-seeded Stanford that came down literally to the final play. Despite lead- ing through three periods, Southern California had to hold off a Stanford rally that nearly bridged a four-goal gap. Annika Dries’ goal with 45 seconds remaining brought Stanford within one for the first time since early in the third period, and capped a torrid, 1-minute, 40-second sprint. With momentum decidedly on Stanford’s side and less than a minute separating Southern California from the championship it had been denied in the previous two title games, the Women of Troy regrouped. “With 45 seconds left, we were all in the center of the pool saying, `This is the best defense of our lives,’” said Lucas. “And we got our stop.
