It was a good effort for a second game. Pacific played really hard and I think the best of our team really came out to play in the second half. It was a good overall day.

It was a good all-around game for our team. It was good to play a lot of different people. After yesterday's difficult loss, the team responded well and came out strong this afternoon.
best current experience four fun game good great guys meet showing team year
It was a good showing by the alumni. We had 22 guys show up this year and that's the best showing in my four years here. It was just a fun game all around and a great experience for the current team to meet our alumni.
forward game good happy hard looking played scoring time won
It was a big first game for us. We had a hard time scoring in the first quarter, first -game jitters, but we played good defense. We are happy we won the first game and we are looking forward to tomorrow's match.

It's been a great class. Their freshmen year was the first year I got hired at Santa Clara and the program has improved every year they've been here. Hopefully they will finish their careers on a high note at the Western Water Polo Association Championships.

It was a real physical game. We had a tough time scoring but we played good defense throughout the game and our offense came through at the end.
beat face game good last match rivalry solid win year
It was a really good game for us. Last year, they beat us in the last match of the year by a goal, so this was a solid win for us. We have a good rivalry going with them and it's always competitive when we face off.

It was a tough game. We came out pretty well in the first quarter and we stuck to our game plan. They got really physical in the second quarter and we didn't match it like we needed to.

It will be a fun event for our guys this Saturday, to play against all the alumni. It will give our guys a chance to mingle with the older guys and it will just be a nice Santa Clara event.
catherine fill goal graduated increase last leading offensive player players score several starter void
We graduated only one starter in Catherine Flynn , but she was our leading goal scorer last year. I don't think we have one player that is going to score like Catherine did last year, but as a team, I think we will be able to fill that void by having several players increase their offensive production.
five four game past path rested seed three
We like being seeded third. Having the first-round bye will be really important because then we will be more rested going into the second-round game. I do not like to think past our first game, but the path to the championship game is much better as a three seed than as a four or five seed, which is what we have been the past three years.
coach college competition conference expect good pacific rebuilding somewhat strongest sure water year
Pacific has a new coach this year and a young team. I'm sure they see this year as somewhat of a rebuilding year, but they play in the strongest conference in college women's water polo, so we are going to expect some good competition from them.
crowd extra game good home hoping last pool senior smaller team tough tougher weather
They are a tough team to play, and they are even tougher to play in a smaller pool like ours. It should be a really good game. Also, it is our last home game of the year, and it is senior day. Even if the weather is not that great, we are hoping for a big crowd to give us that extra edge.
