We had a lot of freshmen who stepped up and played well last season. They now have a year under their belts, so I think we'll improve this year.

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 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.
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.
game year
Our first game is a game we should win. This is the first year we can say that.
adds against athletes cheering crowd definitely energy feed front game home mutual players ranked respect santa student team year
This was our first home game this year against a ranked team and having a big crowd really adds energy to the game and our players definitely feed off of that. The student athletes at Santa Clara have a mutual respect for one another so having them all cheering for the team really made us want to play well in front of them.
counter court cruz defense execute expect good half hard last offense played santa scoring similar speed time type
Santa Cruz has very good speed this year. The last time we played them, we had a hard time scoring on the counter attack. We expect a similar type game, so we are going to have to play good defense and execute well in our half court offense and 6-on-5 opportunities.
barbara currently davis expect good improved learned opportunity playing ranked santa similar type
Santa Barbara is a very good team. They are currently ranked No. 10, and more than anything, we will expect them to be really physical. This will be a good opportunity for us to see if we learned and improved upon some things from playing Davis because it will probably be a similar type of game.

Our team was fired up from the get go. They wanted to play well for the seniors. We had a good game plan drawn up from the last time we faced them and we executed it pretty well.

Brown is solid team, and they have played a very tough schedule this year. They are much better than their win loss record would indicate, and we expect a good competitive game from them.
cal came fired games good half held played rest state team
The team came out fired up to play Cal State Bernardino and we've always had good games with them in the past. We were up 7-1 at the half and held up the rest of the way. We executed counterattack really well and played really good defense.
few games offensive played step talent until utilize
You don't know until you've played a few games who is going to step up and do things, but I think we have a lot of offensive talent out there that we're going to utilize in different ways.

We came out strong like we needed to. It's a great game to have under our belts heading into tomorrow's game with UC Davis. The UC Davis game is really big for our team and we're looking forward to it.
