Following a difficult loss to Claremont-Mudd-Scripps last week, the men’s water polo team dominated the competition at the Gary Troyer Invitational with a 3-1 record on the weekend.
With the season hitting the halfway point, the University of La Verne men’s water polo team lost three and won one game in the Claremont Convergence hosted by the Pomona-Pitzer and Claremont-Mudd-Scripps colleges.
Ranking in the top 20 teams in the national polls is an accomplishment that is usually reserved for well-established teams. However, the University of La Verne's men's water polo team has defied this stereotype by breaking into the national scene in only its third year of existence. By defeating numerous Division I teams and continuing to demonstrate a type of play that is consistently better than their opposition, the Leopards are quickly becoming the team to beat.
As the University of La Verne men's water polo team enters the Claremont Convergence today, the Leopards have the opportunity to better their current No. 16 national ranking.
