COACHING STAFF
ADAM
Prior to his tenure as head coach, Wright was a four-year letterwinner at UCLA from 1997-2000, helping lead the Bruins to back-to-back NCAA titles in 1999 and 2000. He totaled 128 goals in his four seasons and was a two-time All-American. Following his collegiate career, he served as a key member on the USA National Team, participating in the 2004, 2008 and 2012 Olympic Games. He helped lead Team USA to a seventh-place finish in 2004 (Athens) and to a silver medal in 2008 (Beijing). Wright continued training with the USA National Team while serving as UCLA’s head coach and retired as a player after competing at the 2012 Olympics in London.
WRIGHT Head Coach First Season at UCLA UCLA ‘01
Wright got his coaching start as an assistant coach with the varsity boys and girls water polo teams at Wilson High School (Long Beach, Calif.) from 2001-04. He helped coach the boys program to four consecutive CIF Division I championships and Moore League titles and also guided the girl’s team to two Moore League titles.
Adam Wright, who has coached the UCLA men’s water polo team to NCAA Championships in 2014, 2015 and 2017, had his role expanded to include the UCLA women’s water polo team, Director of Athletics Dan Guerrero announced July 20, 2017. “UCLA Water Polo could not be in better hands,” said Guerrero. “Adam’s winning record as the men’s coach speaks for itself, but just as impressive is the culture he is able to create through his exceptional leadership abilities, as well as his talent for helping student-athletes develop into well-rounded individuals. I fully expect both programs to thrive, individually and together, under Adam’s oversight.” “I am extremely honored to serve as the head coach for both UCLA men’s and women’s water polo teams,” said Wright. “It is an incredible opportunity to coach the most storied program in women’s water polo. The foundation is already in place for both teams, and I am really looking forward to this new challenge.” Wright, who recently completed his ninth season as men’s coach, has an overall record of 227-37 (.860) and an MPSF mark of 51-12 (.810). From 2014-16, Wright’s Bruins set an NCAA record with 57 consecutive victories and a conference record with 26 consecutive MPSF wins. Prior to becoming head coach of the men’s program in 2009, he served as an assistant coach with the men’s and women’s teams during the 2008-09 school year, helping the women win an unprecedented fifth consecutive NCAA Championship in May 2009.
Wright’s 2015 Bruins went 30-0 to become program’s first undefeated team since 1969.
As a senior at UCLA in 2000, Wright scored 39 goals before earning honorable mention All-America acclaim and second-team All-MPSF honors. In 1999, he secured third-team All-America and second-team All-MPSF honors. That season, Wright led UCLA in assists (27) and was second in total points (48) and steals (39).
The 2014, 2015 and 2017 ACWPC Division I Coach of the Year, Wright has guided the Bruin men to three MPSF Tournament titles (2009, 2011, 2015), three NCAA titles (2014, 2015, 2017) and three runner-up finishes at the NCAA Tournament in his nine seasons at the helm of the UCLA program. Under Wright’s guidance, 59 players have secured ACWPC All-America honors, including 16 first-team honorees. He has also produced two 2016 USA Olympians in Josh Samuels and Alex Roelse, and coached Garrett Danner to the 2016 Cutino Award. Wright has coached three MPSF Players of the Year, including Danner in 2015 and again in 2016 and Scott Davidson in 2009, who became the first Bruin to secure MPSF Player of the Year honors since 2000 (Sean Kern). The 2015 Bruins ended the year with a 30-0 record and went a perfect 9-0 in the MPSF for its second-consecutive undefeated league season. UCLA also went 4-0 on the year against USC. The undefeated overall season was the first for UCLA since the 1969 team went 19-0, marking the fourth undefeated season all-time in NCAA men’s water polo’s modern history
In his first two seasons, he scored 43 goals - 26 as a freshman and 27 as a sophomore. He gained second-team All-America honors in 1998 and was an honorable mention AllAmerica and All-MPSF selection as a freshman in 1997. Wright graduated from UCLA in 2001 with degrees in history and sociology. Following his collegiate career, Wright competed in the European League (Italy and Russia for Bissolati Cremona, Civitavecchia SNC, Nuoto Catania and Dynamo Moscow from 200408. He has competed for the U.S. National Team in all major tournaments from 2001-11, helping lead Team USA to the gold medal at the 2003 and 2007 Pan American Games as well as the 2005 ASUA Cup (Mexico City).
Wright’s teams have been stellar in the classroom as well as the pool, earning perfect Academic Progress Rates (APR) scores of 1,000 in 2014 and 2015, all while winning the schools’ 112th and 113th NCAA Championships.
Wright, 40, is married to Kerry Norris, a former UCLA women’s soccer player. He and his wife reside with their daughter, Rome, and son, Zsolt, in Los Angeles. Wright is the third coach in UCLA water polo history to coach both the men’s and women’s teams. The other two – Guy Baker and Adam Krikorian – are both in the UCLA Athletics Hall of Fame. While coaching both programs from 1995-2000, Baker won seven national titles (four with the women and three with the men). Krikorian coached both programs from 2000-09 and won a total of 11 national titles as head coach (eight women’s championships and three men’s championships).

HILL
The UCLA women’s water polo team has hired Dusty Litvak as assistant coach, head coach Adam Wright announced on Aug. 10, 2017. Litvak previously served under Wright in the same role for the men’s team during 2013 and 2014 and worked in a volunteer capacity with the women’s team each of the past two seasons.
UCLA women’s water polo coach Adam Wright completed his staff on Aug. 31, 2017 with the hiring of Kodi Hill as assistant coach. A 2017 graduate of UCLA, Hill was an instrumental member of a Bruin class that amassed a record of 105-17 over its four years in the pool. She joined Dusty Litvak, who was previously hired by Wright as assistant coach three weeks earlier.
In Litvak’s four seasons assisting the two programs, Bruin teams have reached title games at a pair of NCAA Championships and won UCLA’s 112th NCAA title with a 9-8 victory over USC in 2014. The men’s team assembled a combined record of 57-7 across his two seasons under Wright, while the women’s team went 50-7 in 2016 and 2017. The UCLA women’s water polo team is coming off a 24-2 campaign that included a 6-0 mark in regular-season MPSF action.
“After a diligent process in finding the best possible staff for our UCLA women’s program, I am happy to announce the addition of Kodi Hill to our staff,” Wright announced. “I believe Kodi’s transition from player to coach will be seamless and her experiences over the last four years will be a tremendous help to Dusty and me as we navigate through the season. “I believe it is a positive to have a coach who recently played as she has a clear understanding not only of our opponents, but the steps we need to take to reach our goals.”
“I am very excited about the opportunity to work with Dusty again here at UCLA,” Wright said. “He has run one of the most successful high school, as well as club water polo teams in Southern California for a long time. He has also established himself on the international level working with various national teams.”
Hill, who missed the 2016 season while training with the USA Senior National Team prior to the Rio Olympics, turned in the most decorated season of her career in 2017. The Santa Barbara, Calif. native was named a Second-Team All-American by the Association of Collegiate Water Polo Coaches (ACWPC) and added a Second-Team All-MPSF selection following the Bruins’ 6-0 run through the regular-season conference campaign. Hill earned an MPSF Player of the Week nod following a three-goal, three-assist performance in UCLA’s 10-9 road win over top-ranked Stanford (Apr. 15). She went on to be named to the NCAA All-Tournament Second Team after doling out a tournament-best seven assists over three games.
Litvak has also held an assortment of roles with USA Water Polo, most recently aiding the Men’s Youth National Team, which won gold at the UANA Youth Pan American Championships in July. He previously guided the same team of 18-and-under players in 2013, as it prepped for the FINA Junior Water Polo Championships. The Malibu, Calif. native has been a prominent face in the Southern California water polo community since graduating from Pepperdine in 2001. Litvak began his head-coaching career leading the boys’ water polo team at his alma mater, Agoura High School—a role that he held until 2013 before returning to the post in 2015. The Chargers collected the first CIF championship in school history (2007) and added three more (2010-12) along the way. He was also named the Marmonte League Coach of the Year 10 times and his teams won eight league championships. Other accolades awarded during his tenure include four CIF Division 4 Coach of the Year honors and eight Los Angeles Daily News Coach of the Year designations.
Though she scored 103 goals over her four seasons—including a career-high 30 in 2014—Hill proved to be the ultimate facilitator for UCLA. The attacker became the school’s all-time assist leader with 194 over 118 games, passing Peter J. Cutino Award winner Kelly Rulon’s (2003, ‘05-’07) 192. Hill led the Bruins in the category each of her four seasons, including a career-best 62 helpers in 2014. She also earned three MPSF All-Academic Scholar-Athlete accolades (2014, 2015, 2017).
Litvak was the technical director of the Los Angeles Water Polo Club from 2012-17. He guided the LAWPC 16-and-under team to gold medals at the 2010 U.S. Club Championships and the 2010 California Cup.
“Kodi has always been a student of the game, which has given her not only the ability to succeed here at UCLA, but as well as with our National Team” Wright added. “She has undoubtedly been one of the smartest players in the pool over her career, which will now give her the ability to teach our current student-athletes.”
“What I believe is most important is Dusty’s ability to connect with student-athletes and teach them the necessary fundamentals to be successful in our game,” Wright added. “He will be a great asset to our women’s program and will help enhance our culture as we move forward.”
In addition to her time with the Senior National Team in 2016, Hill teamed with fellow Bruins Mackenzie Barr, Rachel Fattal and Alys Williams on the USA Junior National Team that won gold at the 2013 FINA Junior World Championships in Volos, Greece. Hill also played alongside her sister, Sami, for two years at UCLA prior to training together for the Olympics. “The Hill family is a water polo family and Kodi has literally grown up around a pool,” Wright explained. “Her exposure to water polo from a young age until now will undoubtedly enhance our staff.” Following her graduation from UCLA, Hill remained in Los Angeles as a coach for the Los Angeles Premier Water Polo Club, a role that she began in the fall of 2016. She most recently guided elite-level girls’ teams on both the 12-and-under and high school levels. “Kodi undoubtedly will help us on the recruiting front, as she has great knowledge of the caliber of student-athlete we are looking to bring into our program,” Wright concluded. “Her goals as a student-athlete were the same as those we are looking for in our studentathletes today.”

1996 In only the second year of existence, UCLA women’s water polo captured the National Collegiate Championship, making Bruin water polo the first water polo program to win national titles in both men’s and women’s competition. Under the guidance of head coach Guy Baker, the Bruins lost only one game during the 1996 campaign, an 8-7 heartbreaker to California in the championship game of the Western Regional Qualification Tournament. But the Bruins turned the tables on the Golden Bears in the season’s final match and handed Cal an 8-4 defeat for the national title. Goals were scored by Jennifer McFerrin (3), Catharine von Schwarz (2), Megan Oesting, Coralie Simmons, and Katie Tenenbaum. Goalkeeper Nicolle Payne stopped 15 of Cal’s shots on goal.
1997 The Bruins brought home their second consecutive national championship and gave head coach Guy Baker four titles in a row (men’s 1995, women’s 1996, men’s 1996, women’s 1997). UCLA lost just one game during the year, a 4-3 heartbreaker at the hands of California in the third game of the season. The Bruins stormed through the rest of the spring, logging a 29-game win streak. UCLA captured its second title in a row with a 6-3 victory over California. The title did not come easily, as the Bruins held on to a shaky 3-2 lead heading into the final quarter of play. But UCLA outscored Cal, 3-1, in the final seven minutes, ensuring the national championship. Payne saved 11 attempts and earned her second consecutive Most Valuable Tournament Goalkeeper award. Goals were netted by Amanda Gall (2), Coralie Simmons (2), Serela Mansur, and Katie Tenenbaum.
1998 In their fourth year of varsity status, the Bruins took home a third consecutive national title under head coach Guy Baker. UCLA lost only one game the entire season to top-ranked Cal in the first place match of the Santa Barbara Tournament. But the defeat would not go unanswered, as the Bruins would defeat the Golden Bears 7-3 in the national championship match. While Cal was held scoreless for two quarters, the Bruins came on strong, notching at least one goal in every quarter. In Payne’s last match as a Bruin, the goalkeeper recorded 13 saves and was named Tournament MVP. Goals were scored by Coralie Simmons (3), Robin Beauregard, Amanda Gall, Erin Golaboski, and Catharine von Schwarz.
2000 The 2000 season brought the Bruins back to championship
The 1998 Bruins went 35-1 en route to the program’s third-straight national title.
status after a one-year hiatus in 1999. Sparked by the return of Catharine von Schwarz from the U.S. National Team, the Bruins finished 30-5 (8-1 MPSF) and won their fourth national championship in five years. The championship was the first under new head coach Adam Krikorian, who took over full-time after the 1998 season. In the title game of the 2000 Collegiate Nationals, UCLA downed defending champion USC, 11-4. The Bruins jumped out to a 3-1 first quarter lead and never looked back. Catharine von Schwarz netted a hat trick and became the first UCLA female student-athlete to win four team championships. Elaine Zivich added a goal and was named Tournament MVP. Goals were also scored by Kelly Heuchan (2), Serela Kay, Jenny Lamb, Jessica Lopez, Eleanor Murphy and Ashley Stachowski. Goalkeeper Jaime Hipp grabbed 10 saves to secure the victory for the Bruins.
2001 The Bruins captured the inaugural NCAA women’s water polo title in 2001. Seniors Coralie Simmons and Kristin Guerin led the Bruins to their fourth title in five years. Throughout the season, UCLA dominated opponents, posting an 18-4 overall record and going 9-1 in MPSF action. The Stanford Cardinal proved to be the toughest challenge for the Bruins, handing them each of the four losses, including an 8-5 loss in the MPSF Championship game. UCLA rebounded from the loss at the
MPSF Championships to defeat Loyola Marymount 11-1 in the NCAA semifinal match. In the title game, UCLA defeated Stanford 5-4. The win came off of a Coralie Simmons goal with 1:28 remaining in the game. Goals were scored by Simmons (2), Robin Beauregard, Kelly Heuchan, and Ashley Stachowski. Jaime Hipp recorded six saves. For her efforts, Simmons received MVP honors and was joined on the All-Tournament team by Beauregard, Heuchan, Hipp, Kristin Guerin, Jenny Lamb, and Elaine Zivich.
2003 The Bruins continued their championship tradition by taking the 2003 NCAA Championship. All-Americans Robin Beauregard and Jamie Hipp provided veteran leadership as head coach Adam Krikorian won his third national championship. UCLA posted an overall record of 23-4, including an 8-2 MPSF mark. Ranked No. 1 nationally entering the MPSF Tournament, the Bruins picked up a No. 3 seed due to losses to Stanford and USC. The Bruins easily dispatched Hawaii before narrowly defeating USC, 7-6, in sudden-victory overtime. In the MPSF title match, UCLA fell to Stanford. The Bruins earned an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament, where they defeated Loyola Marymount in the semifinals. UCLA advanced to the championship game against Stanford for the third consecutive time. The Bruins fell behind 2-0 at halftime, but stormed back with four straight goals to win the match, 4-3, and capture the title. Goals were scored by Jessica Lopez, Kelly Rulon, Lauren Heineck, and Robin Beauregard, and Jaime Hipp finished with six saves. Senior Robin Beauregard was named Most Outstanding Player of the NCAA Touranment.
2005 UCLA’s 2005 squad enjoyed what was considered by many at the time to be the greatest season in collegiate women’s water polo history. Led by Cutino Award winner Natalie Golda, the Bruins posted a perfect 33-0 mark to win the NCAA Championship. UCLA’s 33-0 record marked the best NCAA finish and longest single-season winning streak. The team outscored its opponents 394-134, and 121 -31 in the first quarter. Few teams held their ground against UCLA in the first quarter, much less the entire game. This championship team started three Olympians – Natalie Golda, Kelly Rulon, and Thalia Munro. The Bruins entered the NCAA Tournament as the No. 1 seed at the University of Michigan’s Canham Natatorium. After defeating Wagner in their first match, the Bruins downed Hawai’i, 7-6, in the semifinals. Kristina Kunkel scored the winning goal with 1:43 left in the fourth quarter. UCLA concluded its remarkable season by winning the 2005 NCAA Championship, defeating third-seeded Stanford, 3-2. UCLA led the entire way against the Cardinal, as Brittany Rowe led the Bruins with two goals in that game. The first NCAA women’s water polo title went to UCLA in 2001.

NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS
2006 The 2006 Bruins returned nearly every player aside from Natalie Golda, the 2005 Cutino Award winner who helped lead UCLA to a 33-0 record in 2005. The Bruins had the talent, experience, and determination necessary to win their second consecutive NCAA title, their fourth in the last six seasons. While not nearly as dominant as the 2005 version, the 2006 women’s water polo team outscored its opponents by a 369-134 margin. UCLA allowed just 4.1 goals per game, the best average in the nation. The Bruins finished their 2006 campaign with a 29-4 overall record and an 11-1 MPSF mark. UCLA earned the No. 3 seed entering the NCAA Tournament at UC Davis. In game one, UCLA dispatched No. 6 seed Hartwick College, 15-2. Then next day, goalkeeper Emily Feher made nine saves in the cage and Kelly Rulon added three goals to lead UCLA past Stanford, 8-5, in both teams’ fourth meeting of the spring. UCLA concluded its stellar season in the most exciting fashion. Sophomore Courtney Mathewson’s last-second five-meter shot found the back of the cage, handing UCLA a 9-8 victory over USC and their second NCAA title in as many seasons.
2007 UCLA’s 2007 squad will be most remembered as the team that won UCLA’s 100th NCAA team championship. The women’s water polo team initiated the “race” to 100 when the Bruins captured the 2006 NCAA title. Equally impressive, the Bruins’ 2007 title marked the program’s third consecutive NCAA championship. Led by seniors Molly Cahill, Emily Feher, Kacy Kunkel and Kelly Rulon, the 2007 team had little trouble taking care of business. UCLA suffered two regular-season losses to Stanford, but defeated the Cardinal when it mattered most. The Bruins downed Long Beach State on the first day of the MPSF Tournament before edging USC, 10-9, in the semifinals. UCLA punched its ticket to the NCAA Tournament with a 9-3 rout of Stanford. After a 22-0 victory over Pomona-Pitzer in round one, the Bruins defeated USC, 7-6, to set up a pivotal rematch with Stanford in the NCAA Championship. UCLA built a 4-1 lead after three quarters and held off a furious Stanford rally to win, 5-4. Along the way in 2007, senior Kelly Rulon broke the UCLA career scoring record, totaling 237 goals.
The 2008 NCAA champions posted the second undefeated season in program history, going 33-0.
2008
UCLA won its fifth consecutive NCAA title in 2009, downing rival USC 5-4 in the title match, but did not score any goals in the second half. Playing lockdown defense against a USC squad that had beaten them twice, the Bruins prevailed behind the stellar play of senior goalkeeper Brittany Fullen (12 saves). One day earlier, the Bruins won an equally thrilling contest, using a last-second goal from sophomore Megan Burmeister to edge Stanford,12-11. UCLA entered the 2009 campaign riding a 41-game win streak before losing six games during
For the second time in four years, the UCLA women’s water polo team posted a perfect 33-0 record en route to capturing the NCAA championship. Duplicating the Bruins’ perfect record from 2005, UCLA secured the 2008 NCAA title with a 6-3 victory over crosstown rival USC. Seniors Kamaile Crowell, Gabrielle Domanic, Jillian Krauss, Courtney Mathewson and
Brittany Rowe became the first female student-athletes in school history to capture four NCAA titles in four seasons. Kraus and Mathewson earned Co-MPSF Player of the Year honors by season’s end, and Mathewson was the recipient of the Peter J. Cutino Award, the sport’s most prestigious honor bestowed upon the top male and female player. In his 10th season at the helm, head coach Adam Krikorian earned ACWPC Coach of the Year accolades for the fourth consecutive season, and Mathewson captured ACWPC Player of the Year honors. Aside from the leadership of UCLA’s five seniors, the Bruins received substantial contributions from juniors Brittany Fullen, Anne Belden, Katie Rulon and Tanya Gandy. Fullen finished her junior campaign having started as the goalkeeper in all 33 matches and totaled a school single-season record 237 saves.

the year. In his final season as head coach, Adam Krikorian made sure the Bruins peaked at the right time. Senior Tanya Gandy was named the NCAA Division I Player of the Year after shattering UCLA’s single-season scoring record with 79 goals. Fellow seniors Anne Belden, Katie Rulon and Fullen were named All-NCAA Tournament Team selections in addition to earning Second-Team All-America honors.
NATIONAL TEAM BRUINS
UCLA at the Summer Olympics Guided by former UCLA head coach Adam Krikorian, Team USA won back-to-back gold medals for the first time in women’s water polo history. The defending gold medalists, Team USA romped to a 12-5 win over Italy in the 2016 Rio Games for its fifth consecutive Olympic medal in women’s water polo. Krikorian assumed head coaching responsibilities of the U.S. Women’s Water Polo National Team in the summer of 2009 after winning his fifth consecutive NCAA Championship at the helm of the UCLA women’s program. In his 17 years with the Bruins’ water polo programs as both a player and a coach, Krikorian won an unprecedented 15 national titles - 11 as a head coach, three as an assistant coach and one as a student-athlete. Team USA has long been a power in women’s water polo, but the Americans had never translated their success at other major competitions to the Olympics, claiming bronze in 2004 and silver in 2000 and 2008. Like in Beijing, the U.S. women were ranked No. 1 and were gold medal favorites. But this time, they would not be denied what had long eluded them. Maggie Steffens scored five goals on the day capping a binge of seven-straight goals for the U.S. that turned a 2-1 deficit with 6:44 left in the second period into an 8-2 lead with 7:20 remaining in the fourth quarter. Spain scored the final three goals of the match, but the Americans had built an insurmountable lead. The U.S. was 8-for-17 on shots (compared to Spain’s 5-for28 performance) and dominated the game despite losing out on time of possession, 16:58 to 15:02. U.S. goalkeeper, Betsey Armstrong, finished with eight saves, including a huge stop on a penalty shot in the fourth period. Mathewson recorded one shot in seven minutes of action against Spain. Rulon played 15 minutes, winning one sprint for Team USA. Mathewson, a former Cutino Award winner (2008), won four national titles at UCLA (2005-08) and made her first Olympic appearance in the 2012 London Olympics. Rulon, the 2007 Cutino Award winner, also won four national championships at UCLA (2003, 2005-07) and was part of the bronze-medal winning team in the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Greece. Under the tutelage of former UCLA men’s and women’s
head water polo coach Guy Baker, the U.S. women’s water polo team earned a silver medal at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. Aided by former UCLA standouts Natalie Golda and Jaime Hipp, the U.S. team earned its third medal since the sport’s Olympic inception in 2000. In the gold medal match against Hungary, Team USA rallied from an early 4-0 deficit to tie the match, 5-5, before halftime. Golda scored one goal in the match, helping reduce the Americans’ deficit to 5-3. The U.S. team advanced to the gold medal match after sinking Australia, 9-8, to assure itself of finishing the Olympics with a medal. The 2008 Games in Beijing marked the second Olympic appearance for Golda and the first for Hipp. Baker served as the U.S. women’s team’s head coach in the first three Olympiads of the 21st Century. In 2004, seven players and Baker represented the UCLA women’s water polo program at the Olympics in Athens, Greece. Six former and current Bruins helped lead Team USA to the bronze medal, and one former Bruin (Kelly Heuchan) competed for Australia, which finished fourth. Then-current Bruins Natalie Golda, Thalia Munro, Amber Stachowski, Kelly Rulon and Gabrielle Domanic (alternate) competed alongside Payne and Beauregard. Baker helped lead the U.S. team to its second medal in as many Olympics. In the 2004 bronze medal contest, the U.S. team defeated host Australia by a 6-5 margin. UCLA’s athletes scored three of Team USA’s six goals in that contest – Beauregard, Golda and Stachowski each netted one goal. The new millennium brought women’s water polo to the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia. In a wild gold medal contest between Australia and Team USA, Australia scored a controversial last-second goal to win, 4-3, and send the U.S. team home with the silver medal. Bruins Coralie Simmons, Nicolle Payne, Beauregard, and Coach Baker helped lead Team USA on its quest for a gold medal. While competing at UCLA, both Simmons and Beauregard spent the year away from campus. Simmons led Team USA with nine goals in the Olympics, and Beauregard added six. In 2012, Krikorian guided Team USA to its first-ever gold medal. Four-time NCAA champions Kelly Rulon and Courtney Mathewson were key players for the U.S. in London. Rulon’s medal was the second in her career, as she has previously won bronze in 2004.

Of the eight players to find the back of the net against Italy in the 2016 gold medal match, three were Bruins. Redshirt senior Rachel Fattal led the charge with two goals while former Bruin and two-time gold medalist Courtney Mathewson netted one in the opening minutes of play. In the fourth quarter, incoming freshman Maddie Musselman rocketed a penalty shot past the Italian keeper to give Team USA an 11-4 lead. One of the team’s leading scorers, Musselman tallied 12 goals throughout the Olympic Games, including a gamehigh four goals against China in pool play. Overall, Mathewson notched seven for Team USA while Fattal scored four. Rounding out the Bruins’ scoring efforts, defender KK Clark put away two of her own. In the cage, Hill recorded six saves in three games. The U.S. finished the Rio Games with a goal differential of 41 after scoring 73 goals and allowing just 32 in six games played. Since women’s water polo was added to Olympic program in 2000, the United States has never missed the podium. It won silver in 2000 and 2008 and bronze in 2004 before capturing back-to-back gold medals in London and Rio.
NATIONAL TEAM BRUINS
U.S. National Team Experience The USA National Team program has a rich history of selecting UCLA players and coaches, who have helped Team USA to a number of gold medals all over the world. This past summer, the USA Water Polo Women’s Senior National Team successfully defended its title at the FINA World Championships, defeating Spain in the gold-medal game, 13-6. The win capped an unbeaten run through the schedule for the Americans, who were led by tournament MVP Maddie Musselman. The UCLA sophomore-to-be scored a team-high 16 goals over six contests. Bruins Rachel Fattal (2013-15, 2017) and Alys Williams (2013-15, 2017) also factored in prominently for the Adam Krikorian-led Team USA. The FINA World Championships win marked yet another highlight in a busy summer for Team USA. Musselman and Williams were part of the roster that needed a shootout to overcome Greece and claim the Kunshan Cup in China by a score of 11-8 (June 3). Just over a week and six games later and with Fattal added to the mix, the Americans claimed their fourth straight gold at the FINA World League Super Final with a 12-6 win over Canada in Shanghai. For good measure, USA began July by taking the Vodafone Cup with a 10-8 win over host Hungary in Miskolc. In the summer of 2016, the USA Women’s Water Polo Senior National Team won its third consecutive gold medal at the FINA World League Super Final. The U.S. defeated Spain in the championship match, 13-9, in Beijing, China to capture its 10th overall WLSF title. UCLA alumna Courtney Mathewson (2005-08) was named Tournament MVP. Three summers ago, the USA Senior National Team won gold at the FINA Intercontinental Tournament, the FINA World League Super Final, the Pan American Games, and the FINA World Championships. Rachel Fattal earned MVP honors at the latter event, scoring 18 goals en route to gold. In the summer of 2014, the USA Senior National Team won three international events: the FINA World League Super Final, the Kinishi Cup and the FINA World Cup. Bruins Sami Hill, Rachel Fattal, Alys Williams, KK Clark and Jillian Kraus scored a total of 17 goals in the tournament as the United States marched to the gold medal. Fattal led all Bruins with nine goals, including three against Italy in the championship match. Hill added seven saves in the final. At the Kinishi Cup, Bruins scored 12 goals for the USA. Hill was a mainstay in the cage, making 14 saves against Italy and 11 vs. Hungary in group play, while Fattal scored five total goals to help lead the Americans to the championship. In addition to Hill and Fattal, UCLA was represented by Clark, Willaims, Kraus and Courtney Mathewson.
At the FINA World Cup, the USA won another gold medal on the backs of Hill, Fattal and Mathewson. Hill recorded 16 saves in the championship victory over Australia. Fattal (10 goals) and Mathewson (six goals) were major forces on offense for the Stars and Stripes. Clark, Williams and Kraus were also key players in the USA’s drive to an undefeated tournament. In the summer of 2013, the U.S. Women’s Junior National Team won the gold medal at the FINA Junior World Championships in Greece by defeating Spain, 9-7. UCLA players participating were Fattal, Emily Donohoe, Kodi Hill and Williams. Fattal was named the MVP of the tournament after scoring 15 goals. Later that summer, the Senior National Team placed fifth at the FINA World Championships in Spain. Players representing UCLA were Fattal, Mathewson, Kraus, Kelly Rulon and Clark. In December 2013, Fattal, Sami Hill, Williams, Kraus, Clark, Mathewson and Priscilla Orozco beat Canada in a best-of-three series to qualify for the 2014 World Cup. In 2009 UCLA players Brooke Martin and Natasha Schulman played for the 2009 USA Junior National Team and Sami Hill redshirted the 2012 season to train with the U.S. Senior National Team. In the summer of 2007, former UCLA attacker Tanya Gandy and Team USA finished fourth at the FINA Women’s Junior World Championships in Porto, Portugal. Gandy scored 19 goals in seven games. The Senior National Team won the Holiday Cup in December 2006. Former Bruins Natalie Golda and Jamie Hipp and then-current Bruin Emily Feher competed in the Senior National Team event. Golda scored in every one of six games for Team USA, while Hipp contributed 21 saves in the cage. Team USA had also won the 2006 FINA World Championships in Italy. At the 2006 Pythia Cup in Greece, Gandy and Brittany Fullen, then a sophomore on the Bruins’ roster, competed for the U.S. Junior National Team. Gandy registered eight goals and Fullen totaled 14 saves in the cage over three games, leading Team USA to the silver medal. In December 2001, the U.S. Junior National Team captured the nation’s first FINA Junior World Championship in a 10-9 overtime win. Amber Stachowski led the United States with four goals and Thalia Munro added one. UCLA players accounted for 48 percent of U.S. scoring with 38 of Team USA’s 80 goals. In the 2003 FINA Junior World Championships, Feher, Lauren Heineck, Kristina Kunkel and Kelly Rulon all saw significant playing time for the United States. In 2004, the Junior National Team won the gold medal at the Pan-American Games.
Team USA, featuring Bruins Rachel Fattal, Maddie Musselman and Alys Williams, won gold at the FINA World Championships in 2017.

UCLA players have been key members of the Senior National Team in previous years. Each player has contributed to Team USA’s international success. At the 2003 FINA World Championships, Robin Beauregard scored the game-winning goal in the United States’ 8-6 victory over Italy in the title game. The victory over Italy gave the U.S. women’s water polo team its first-ever gold medal. Following the FINA World Championships, Team USA headed to the Pan American Games in hopes of earning an Olympic berth. The Senior National team went on to compete in the 2004 Athens Olympics, placing third.
DIRKS POOL AT SPIEKER AQUATICS CENTER
Dirks Pool at Spieker Aquatics Center has served as the home for UCLA women’s water polo since 2010.
Dirks Pool at Spieker Aquatics Center The UCLA women’s water polo team begins its ninth season playing at Dirks Pool at Spieker Aquatics Center in the spring of 2018. Over the past seven seasons, UCLA has logged a 48-7 (.873) record at its state-of-the-art home facility. In 2018, UCLA is slated to play five regular-season games at Spieker Aquatics Center. Spieker Aquatics Center opened in September 2009, in time for the start of the men’s water polo season that fall. PCL Construction broke ground on the facility in July 2008. The athletics department offi cially opened Spieker Aquatics Center on Sept. 26, 2009, as the men’s water polo team defeated UC Irvine, 10-4, after a dedication ceremony that evening. In the spring of 2017, UCLA hosted the MPSF Tournament (April 28-30), using Dirks Pool at Spieker Aquatics Center. The Bruins took full advantage of their home court and won the Conference Tournament by beating second-ranked Stanford, 6-3, on April 30, 2017. The Bruins also hosted the MPSF Tournament in May 2009, taking advantage of the home setting to win the title at the three-day event. UCLA’s men’s water polo team won its 10th NCAA title in school history at Spieker Aquatics Center in 2015. The Bruins can also use the pool at Sunset Canyon Recreation Center when hosting larger events. Entering its ninth full season as UCLA’s home pool, Spieker Aquatics Center features a 52-meter by 25-yard all-deep water pool with a dividing bulkhead, allowing races to take place at varying distances (meters, versus yards). The pool also has four platforms on a diving tower, at heights of
three, five, seven and one half, and 10-meter platforms, as well as one and three-meter springboards. In addition, the aquatics center features a warming pool for divers directly behind the tower. Adjacent to Sunset Canyon Recreation Center on the northwest portion of campus, the Spieker Aquatics Center was made possible thanks to a generous lead gift from former student-athlete Tod Spieker and his wife, Catherine. Tod, a 1971 UCLA graduate and All-American, swam for the Bruins from 1968-71 and still competes successfully in Master’s Swimming. The main pool, Dirks Pool, is named after Carolyn Dirks, who provided the lead gift for the swimming pool. Dirks Pool has also been used for special use events and Masters Swim meets. The signature feature of the Spieker Aquatics Center is the diving tower, which sits at the west end of the pool. The east end of the pool houses the new scoreboard, an LED, state-of-the-art piece of electronics, making scores, statistics and messages easily visible to all in attendance. Next to the scoreboard is the “Wall of Champions”, showcasing all of UCLA’s water polo, swimming and diving national championship teams, and individual studentathletes’ achievements, record-holders and Olympians. Separate men’s and women’s locker rooms house enough lockers for all team members, with shower space and bathroom stalls and sinks for each team. Equipment needed for meets and matches have storage capacity on the facility’s south side. When walking through the public entryway to the 31
center, visitors first notice the Donor Wall. All donors who generously made gifts to the Spieker Aquatics Center are recognized on this wall. Additionally, over 50 former UCLA water polo players, swimmers and divers made gifts to “name” a locker. Those names will forever be part of the locker rooms in the new facility. The state-of-the-art facility brings together all three of UCLA’s intercollegiate aquatic sports – water polo, swimming and diving – to one venue. The aquatics center features event lighting and permanent seating with the possibility of additional temporary seating for larger events.

Ashley Armstrong
Dr. Gene Block
Director of Athletics 15th Year UCLA ‘74
Associate Athletic Director 14th Year UC Davis ‘95
Chancellor 10th Year Stanford ‘77
Fourteen years and 27 NCAA Championships later, Dan Guerrero’s mantra of ‘image and substance’ has clearly been established at a level that few others in his profession can approach. At the department’s helm when UCLA Athletics became the first to 100 NCAA team championships, the Bruins’ current total of 113 NCAA titles is a figure unmatched by any institution in the nation. While UCLA teams have indeed won 27 NCAA championships since his appointment, another national leader, they have also finished second 26 times and have enjoyed an additional 56 Top Five finishes. In fact, more than 80% of UCLA teams have qualified for NCAA post-season competition since 2002. The football team has appeared in 12 bowl games, while the men’s basketball team advanced to consecutive Final Fours from 2006-08 and has made five trips to the Sweet 16. The program has also won 62 conference championships in 15 different sports, produced over 600 All-Americans and featured eight Honda Award winners, including the 2003-04 Collegiate Woman Athlete of the Year. Guerrero, recently named the 2014 NACDA Under Armour Athletic Director of the Year award, is the only athletic director at the NCAA Division I level (FBS, FCS and NCAA Division I-AAA) to earn three such awards (2006-07 at UCLA, 2001-02 at UC Irvine). In his 14 years at UCLA, the Bruins have finished second four times and third four times in the race for the Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup. While success on the playing field with 27 NCAA Championships in 14 different sports and 26 second-place finishes during his tenure are extraordinary numbers, UCLA’s academic success under Guerrero is equally noteworthy. Over 14 years and 42 quarters, student-athletes have earned nearly 9,500 spots on the Director’s Honor Roll. UCLA’s Graduation Success Rate (GSR) and Academic Progress Rates (APR) continued to remain high nation-wide. The Bruin student-athlete GSR is currently at 86%, and every Bruin team maintained multi-year APR rates over 960, including three who achieved perfect scores of 1000 (women’s golf for the seventh consecutive year, men’s water polo and men’s volleyball). Guerrero came to UCLA from UC Irvine, where he had served as UCI’s fifth permanent Director of Athletics for 10 years (1992-2002), helping to elevate that program to unprecedented success. Prior to arriving at UCI, Guerrero worked at Cal State Dominguez Hills, where he led that program to national prominence while serving as Athletic Director for five years (1988-92). A proud alumnus of UCLA, Guerrero received his Bachelor’s degree from the University in 1974 and played second base for the Bruins for four years. Known as “Warrior” during his playing career, he was inducted into the UCLA Baseball Hall of Fame in 1996. The Bruin Athletic Director earned a Master’s degree in Public Administration in 1982 from Cal State Dominguez Hills and was named to the Pi Alpha Alpha Honor Society for Public Affairs and Public Policy that same year.

MOUNTAIN PACIFIC SPORTS FEDERATION (MPSF) The Mountain Pacific Sports Federation (MPSF) was established in 1992-1993 to serve the competitive needs of member institutions from the Big West, Pacific-10 and Western Athletic Conferences, as well as other selected universities in the western United States; and to provide championships competition for Division I intercollegiate Olympic sports in a conference setting. The founding principles on which the MPSF was originally formed were to provide enhanced competition and championship opportunities for sports without conference affiliation; to contain the costs of competition; and to ensure the survival of endangered sports. The federation has also served as an incubator for emerging women’s sports and as a safe harbor for sports impacted by conference realignments. Since its inaugural season, the Federation has seen its charter conference membership grow by the addition of the Mountain West and West Coast Conferences and their respective member institutions, as well as the addition of women’s water polo, women’s gymnastics, women’s lacrosse and men’s and women’s swimming and diving. As a testament to its viability, the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation continues to successfully navigate the ever-changing sea of college sports by fostering contraction and expansion of its sports portfolio to meet the dynamic needs of its members. As the MPSF begins its 26th season during the 2017-2018 academic year and continues its legacy of championship competition, it affirms the vision of its founders and the relevance of its founding principles. In 2017-2018, the MPSF will sponsor competition in 10 intercollegiate Olympic sports, while serving 80 teams from 38 universities across 10 states. All MPSF teams compete at the NCAA Division I level in men’s and women’s water polo, men’s and women’s indoor track and field, men’s and women’s gymnastics, men’s and women’s swimming and diving, women’s lacrosse, and men’s volleyball. MPSF team champions are eligible to compete in the NCAA Championships with men’s and women’s water polo and men’s volleyball champions earning automatic qualification. Making their debut in an MPSF Championship this year are the women’s indoor track and field teams from UC Davis and the University of San Francisco. The MPSF collected four NCAA team championship titles
during the 2016-17 academic year, extending the streak to 13 straight years with at least that many. The federation collected a high of five national championships during the 2007-08, 2008-09, and 2015-16 years. This past year, California Men’s Water Polo, Stanford Women’s Water Polo, Oregon Women’s Indoor Track and Field, and Oklahoma Men’s Gymnastics brought the MPSF’s total to 89 NCAA titles since its first season of competition. With the Golden Bears’ men and Cardinal women winning NCAA Water Polo titles, the MPSF has captured all 42 national championships in the sport since the inaugural year of the conference (25 men, 17 women). The Oklahoma Men’s Gymnastics team has brought home the last six MPSF Championships--the longest current streak amongst all federation sports--as well as an all-sports MPSF record 16 conference titles. Al Beaird has been the federation’s only executive director, taking the reins after being selected by the MPSF Administrative Committee in December 1997 after a national search. Beaird’s position was established as a result of the federation’s continued growth and emerging tradition of NCAA and national championship caliber play, including 75 NCAA team championships during his tenure. Beaird, who formerly served on the athletics staff at his alma mater, UC Davis, where the integration of student and athlete is a long-rooted philosophy, oversees the administration of all Federation sports, having worked closely with administrators and coaches from more than 50 different universities over the course of his administration. Beaird presided over the transition of the Federation from what was initially a scheduling alliance to what is now nationally recognized as the most successful NCAA Division I Olympic sports conference. Beaird directs all aspects of MPSF competition, including championships, officiating, rules compliance, scheduling, media relations, broadcasting, sponsorships and NCAA relations, while also shaping conference legislation, facilitating annual meetings and providing direction and communication for the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation Administrative and Executive Committees. In 2004, Beaird completed a four-year term, three years as chair, on the NCAA Men’s Water Polo Championships Committee and one year as chair of the inaugural NCAA Men’s and Women’s Water Polo Rules Committee.

privileged to work with coaches and student-athletes who compete at the highest levels, including those who compete on USA national teams as coaches or players in international and Olympic competition. With his in NCAA Olympic sports, Beaird has been called upon to serve as liaison to the national governing bodies for amateur athletics in the United States and the United States Olympic Committee. Beaird received his undergraduate degree in physical education from UC Davis before attaining his Masters of Business Administration from California State University, Sacramento. Beaird, who lives in Woodland, California, is married and has two daughters.
