COACHING STAFF DENNY HARPER Head Coach 31st Season 525-385-4 Record In his 30 years as UCSD water polo coach, Denny Harper has established one of the top programs in the country.

Through his time with the Tritons, Harper has amassed a career record of 525-385-4.

During the 2009 campaign, the Tritons went 14-14 and narrowly missed a trip to the NCAA Final Four. In the Western Water Polo Association Championship Tournament, UCSD pushed past Redlands and Whittier in the early rounds before eventually falling to Loyola Marymount in the title game, 5-4. At the conclusion of the season, the Association of Collegiate Water Polo Coaches named Harper as Coach of the Year. It was Harper’s fourth ACWPC Coach of the Year honor since 2000.

The Tritons battled LMU in the 2008 WWPA title game, dropping a 12-10 decision. UCSD ended the season at 20-11, marking the sixth time in the decade that the Tritons had reached at least 20 victories. On Sept. 20, 2008, Harper earned career win No. 500 as UCSD defeated Cal Baptist, 14-8, as part of the NorCal Tournament.

During the 2006 season, the Tritons set a program record in wins, completing a 26-6 season with their 14th WWPA title and a third-place finish at the NCAA National Championship tournament. After the remarkable campaign, Harper was named the ACWP Coach of the Year. Additionally in 2006, Ty Lackey finished up his Triton career being named to the ACWP All-American Division I team and a national finalist for the Peter J. Cutino National Player of the Year Award.

In 2005, UCSD finished the year at 24-8, which was at the time, a school record for wins. With multiple victories against Division I schools in Long Beach State, UC Davis, LMU, UC Irvine, Saint Francis and a total of 19 victories against ranked opponents, UCSD climbed as high as No. 5 in the national polls and finished the season with a No. 10 national ranking.

The 20-12 2004 season allowed for young players to gain valuable experience while the roster featured just one graduating senior. The Tritons secured several wins over Division I powers, such as LBSU, UCD, LMU and UC Santa Barbara. Harper was named the 2004 ACWP Coach of the Year after leading UCSD to yet another 20 win season. It was his second honor of this type, as he earned his first Coach of the Year award in 2000.

The 2002 squad went 19-13 and earned the program’s ninth NCAA berth by winning its 13th WWPA title at the Canyonview Aquatic Center on the La Jolla campus. The 2000 campaign also proved to be a banner year as the Tritons defeated USC, 9-8, in a national semifinal in Malibu to become the first non-Division I team to play in the NCAA Men’s Water Polo Championship Game.

The Tritons have advanced to the NCAA Tournament on 10 different occasions, finishing second for the first time ever in 2000, third in 1995, 1998 and 2006, fourth in 1999 and 2002 , sixth in 1989, 1991 and 1992,

4

and eighth in 1993. In 1995, Harper’s Tritons became the first Division III team to advance to the NCAA Final Four, repeating the feat in 1998 and at Canyonview in 1999.

Under Harper’s direction, UCSD has proved to be a regular contender in the WWPA since the league began sponsoring championships in 1981. In 28 seasons, the Tritons have captured 14 titles and 10 runner-up trophies.

Harper has been honored as WWPA Coach of the Year 15 times. UCSD has been consistently ranked among the top 12 teams in the NCAA rankings, including reaching as high as No. 3 in the nation in 2006, after an upset win over UCLA. At the 2008 FINA Masters World Championships in Perth, Australia, Harper guided the San Francisco Olympic Club’s 45+ team to the silver medal, losing the championship game to the same Russian squad that won the 1980 Olympics. The 40+ squad won the Bronze medal, and the 30+ team won the Gold medal.

Harper concluded an outstanding tenure as coach of the UCSD women’s water polo team in 1999, winning five USA Water Polo crowns, one national runner-up effort and two national third-place trophies. He has also coached the highly-successful Sunset San Diego club teams, leading the men’s team to three Indoor National Championships and the Sunset women’s team to eight national titles. The coach also led the UCSD men into the Guinness Book of Records when his squad played 26 continuous hours of water polo on April 7-8, 1989. Harper, a 1978 graduate of San Diego State University, began coaching at Rancho Alamitos High School, Indio High School and SDSU before coming to UCSD.

Since moving to Division II in 2000, UC San Diego has been ranked among the top seven programs in the country on eight different occasions in the annual Director’s Cup standings. In two of those finishes, UCSD was the national runner up. UC San Diego has also won the last five California Collegiate Athletic Association Commissioner’s Cup titles, an award that recognizes the best overall athletics program in the conference. Additionally, UCSD has been ranked No. 1 in Division II (and in the top 20 overall) in the last two National Collegiate Scouting Association (NCSA) Collegiate Power Rankings, which comprehensively measures student-athlete graduation rates, academic strength and athletic prowess.

ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE & SPORTS MEDICINE

Two integral parts of the UC San Diego athletics department are the Athletic Performance Program and the Sports Medicine Program, both of which provide a tremendous advantage to all 23 of the UCSD intercollegiate sports.

The Athletic Performance Program is geared toward teaching each student-athlete how to achieve the highest level of athletic development through enhancement of all components of strength and conditioning. Athlete workouts are planned and monitored out by Rudy Thomas, UCSD’s Director of Strength and Conditioning. Thomas brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to Triton athletics and represents the only full-time strength and conditioning coach in the CCAA. The Tritons work out in the RIMAC weight room, which is over 12,000 square feet in size and features state of the art equipment. The UCSD Athlete Performance Program is truly designed with the student-athlete’s enhancement in mind. Very few programs at the Division II level have such expertise and first class facilities at the disposal of the student-athlete, helping to further distinguish the Triton Athletics Department as one of the premiere intercollegiate programs in the country.

The UC San Diego Sports Medicine Center is dedicated to the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of athletic-related injuries suffered by Triton student-athletes. Under the supervision of head athletic trainer Kevin Messey MS, ATC, CSCS and his staff, UCSD athletes receive the highest quality medical care and access to an extensive network of physicians and other medical specialists.

The rest of the training room staff is comprised of two fulltime ATCs, two graduate assistant ATCs and an average of 10 athletic training students. The UCSD athletic training room is a clinical site for San Diego State University’s accredited athletic training education program, where some of the athletic training students fulfill their clinical experience. Additionally, the UCSD Sports Medicine Center offers a wide variety of options for examination and rehabilitation.

From acupuncture to a group of six highly specialized sports medicine, family practitioners and orthopedic surgeons, the UCSD training room has a multitude of options at your disposal to get you healthy and back on the field of competition in no time.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH

The UC San Diego Department of Athletics is committed to actively participating in the community through a variety of outreach events and services. Student-athletes from 23 sports participate in a wide range of service and outreach programs in and around the San Diego area.

In 2003-04 the Tritons began the “Team Up!” program. This program assists local elementary schools that do not have a physical education component in their current curriculum.

UCSD student-athletes provide healthy physical activity and create an environment for elementary school students that foster positive thinking and team building. The program was run at the Del Mar Heights Elementary School in the morning hours prior to school starting and during the students’ lunch periods during the past two years.

Triton student-athletes make the holidays brighter for 12 families in the San Diego area on an annual basis, providing a plethora of gifts and holiday cheer. Triton teams paired up and each tandem purchased presents, food, and goodies to deliver to their adopted family before the holidays. Families were selected by the Neighborhood House Association which runs the Head Start programs throughout San Diego County. Student-athletes contacted the families to find out what special presents the children wanted, as well as what sort of clothing or other needs could be met. Teams delivered the presents in person and spent time with the families, often playing games with the children. Families each received approximately $300-$500 worth of gifts, depending on the number of children. Presents ranged from a bike for one child to clothing and food for the parents.

In conjuction with the California Collegiate Athletic Association as the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, Triton student-athletes have gone to work to raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation in each of the last three years. The student-athletes held a bake sale during the Annual Sun God Festival on the UCSD campus. Each team brought baked goods for a sale in the evening prior to the festival’s main event. The goal at each CCAA member institution was to raise $1 per student-athlete. Triton student-athletes far exceeded this goal, raising over $1,000 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation in 2005.

Additionally, the Intercollegiate Athletics Department holds an annual Blood Drive to benefit the American Red Cross. All coaches, staff and out of season student-athletes participated in the blood drive, while those student-athletes who were in season recruited other students on campus to donate blood on their behalf.
