BRIDGEPORT, Pennsylvania, September 24.\u00a0THE\u00a0reign of\u00a0Stanford University<\/strong>\u00a0as the No. 1 team in the nation is over as the\u00a0University of California-Los Angeles<\/strong>,\u00a0Whittier College<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Princeton University<\/strong>\u00a0now rank in the top spots as the Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) releases the 2014 Men’s Varsity Week 3\/September 24 National Top 20, Division III Top 10 and CWPA Top 10 Polls.<\/p>\n

In the National Top 20 rankings, the Bruins of UCLA dispatched Stanford by a 9-7 final score in the title game of the NorCal Tournament at the\u00a0University of the Pacific<\/strong>\u00a0to terminate the Cardinal’s Preseason, Week 1 and Week 3 reign on top of the game of water polo to rate the unanimous top choice in this week’s balloting with 100 points.\u00a0 Stanford (95 points) falls back to No. 3, with the\u00a0University of California<\/strong>\u00a0(90 points) jumping over the\u00a0University of Southern California<\/strong>\u00a0(85 points), a team the Golden Bears dispatched 11-10 at NorCals, to take over at No. 3.<\/p>\n

In the Division III ranks, Whittier sees its lead for the top position shrink from 13-points to just five as the Poets picked up 99 points to edge out\u00a0Johns Hopkins University<\/strong>\u00a0(94 points) for No. 1 position among small college institutions.<\/p>\n

Similar to the Division III Top 10 poll, the CWPA Top 10 experiences a closing of the gap between No. 1 and 2 as the Tigers of Princeton (98 points), which fell to Johns Hopkins by a 10-9 final on the road last weekend, now hold a narrow two-point lead over\u00a0Harvard University<\/strong>\u00a0(96 points) for top billing in the league.<\/p>\n

Voted on by a panel of coaches from the CWPA, Western Water Polo Association (WWPA), Mountain Pacific Sports Federation (MPSF), Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) and the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA), the polls are compiled and released\u00a0on Wednesday<\/span><\/span>\u00a0during each week of the season through the week following the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Championship.<\/p>\n

2014 Men’s Varsity National Top 20 (Week 3)
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The\u00a0University of California-Los Angeles<\/strong>\u00a0(100 points) knocked off Preason and Week 1 top-billed\u00a0Stanford University<\/strong>\u00a0(95 points) in the title game of the NorCal Tournament hosted by the\u00a0University of the Pacific<\/strong>\u00a0to become the unanimous No. 1 selection in the Week 3\/September 24 National Top 20 Poll.<\/p>\n

UCLA, which downed Stanford by a 9-7 final score, leads a Top 20 in which only the\u00a0University of California-San Diego<\/strong>\u00a0retains its ranking from last week as upsets abounded over the past seven days to shift the national water polo scene.<\/p>\n

Behind UCLA and Stanford, the\u00a0University of California<\/strong>\u00a0(90 points) leapfrogs the\u00a0University of Southern California<\/strong>\u00a0(90 points) thanks to an 11-10 defeat of the defending National Champions in the Third Place game at NorCals.\u00a0 The tournament had a dramatic impact on the remainder of the Top 10 as the\u00a0University of California-Santa Barbara<\/strong>\u00a0(80 points) climbs to No. 5 on the back of a 9-7 victory over former No. 6 Pacific.\u00a0Long Beach State University<\/strong>\u00a0(75 points) and Pacific (71 points) ball back to No. 6 and 7, respectively, while UC-San Diego (65 points), which was tied with\u00a0Princeton University<\/strong>\u00a0at No. 8 last week, is the sole team to retain its ranking.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0University of California-Irvine<\/strong>\u00a0(59 points) and the\u00a0University of California-Davis<\/strong>\u00a0(51 points) both improve one position to take over at No. 9 and 10 to complete the Top 10 and continue a trend of change throughout the Top 20.<\/p>\n

Pepperdine University<\/strong>\u00a0(47 points) jumps two places to take over at No. 11, while Princeton (37 points), on the heels of a 10-9 loss on the road at\u00a0Johns Hopkins University<\/strong>, slips to No. 12.<\/p>\n

Santa Clara University<\/strong>\u00a0(37 points),\u00a0Brown University<\/strong>\u00a0(29 points) and the\u00a0United States Air Force Academy<\/strong>\u00a0(28 points) rise to take over at No. 13-to-15, respectively, while\u00a0Harvard University<\/strong>\u00a0(23 points) slides to No. 16.<\/p>\n

Loyola Marymount University<\/strong>\u00a0(18 points), the\u00a0United States Naval Academy<\/strong>\u00a0(15 points) and\u00a0Whittier College<\/strong>\u00a0(9 points) ride the changes in the remainder of the Top 20 to claim the No. 17-to-19 positions, while\u00a0George Washington University<\/strong>\u00a0(6 points) and Johns Hopkins (6 points) are tied at No. 20 to place 21 teams among the 20 best squads in the land.<\/p>\n

California Baptist University<\/strong>\u00a0(5 points),\u00a0Concordia University<\/strong>\u00a0(4 points) and\u00a0St. Francis College Brooklyn<\/strong>\u00a0(1 point) also received votes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

2014 Men’s Varsity Division III Top 10 (Week 3)
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Poets of\u00a0Whittier College<\/strong>\u00a0(99 points), which are now ranked at No. 19 in the National Top 20 Poll, remain at No. 1 in the Week 3\/September 24 National Division III Top 10 Poll.<\/p>\n

However, the days of the team’s unanimous selection as the best Division III team in the land are over as the Blue Jays of\u00a0Johns Hopkins University<\/strong>\u00a0(94 points) picked up one first place vote and a 10-9 victory over former No. 8-ranked\u00a0Princeton University<\/strong>\u00a0over the weekend to shave a 13-point lead by the Poets for the top spot last week down to five points through Week 3 action.<\/p>\n

Similar to the National Top 20, change is the norm and not the exception following Week 3 competition as adjustments to the Top 10 occur from No. 2-to-10.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0University of La Verne<\/strong>\u00a0(87 points) rises two positions to take over at No. 3, while\u00a0Claremont-Mudd-Scripps Colleges<\/strong>\u00a0(79 points), which was tied with Johns Hopkins for the runner-up spot in the Week 2\/September 17 voting, falls back to No. 4.<\/p>\n

Pomona-Pitzer Colleges<\/strong>\u00a0(73 points) and the\u00a0Massachusetts Institute of Technology<\/strong>\u00a0(73 points) move into a tie at No. 5 after ranking at No. 6 and 7 last week.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0University of Redlands<\/strong>\u00a0(69 points),\u00a0Chapman University<\/strong>\u00a0(68 points),\u00a0California Lutheran University<\/strong>\u00a0(65 points) and\u00a0Washington & Jefferson College<\/strong>\u00a0(33 points) round out the Top 10.<\/p>\n

Connecticut College<\/strong>\u00a0(24 points) and\u00a0Occidental College<\/strong>\u00a0(11 points) also received votes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

2014 Men’s Varsity CWPA Top 10 (Week 3)
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Tigers of\u00a0Princeton University<\/strong>\u00a0suffered a 10-9 loss at Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) Southern Division-East Region rival\u00a0Johns Hopkins University<\/strong>, but the Black & Orange continue as the top rated team in the league as the squad picked up 98 points to once again lead the Week 3\/September 24 CWPA Top 10 Poll.<\/p>\n

Princeton (98 points), which finished second to\u00a0St. Francis College Brooklyn<\/strong>\u00a0last season in the CWPA Championship title game and was ranked No. 1 in the wake of both the Preseason, Week 1 and Week 2 ballots, sees its lead over Ivy League nemesis\/Northern Division front-runner\u00a0Harvard University<\/strong>\u00a0(96 points) shrink from six points down to a meager two as the Crimson continue an assault to garner the first No. 1 billing in the league polls (men and\/or women) in the history of the institution.<\/p>\n

Brown University<\/strong>\u00a0(89 points), which is tied with Harvard for the lead in the Northern Division, follows in Third Place, while the\u00a0United States Naval Academy<\/strong>\u00a0(87 points) stays just off the pace of the Tigers, Crimson and Bears to fall back into Fourth Place following a tie with Brown for Third Place last week.<\/p>\n

The best team in the Baltimore\/D.C. Metro area remains in question as\u00a0George Washington University<\/strong>\u00a0(73 points) and Johns Hopkins (73 points) are deadlocked for the Fifth Position with both teams continuing to make a case for potential Southern Division Championship runs in the weeks to come.<\/p>\n

Fordham University<\/strong>\u00a0(70 points) and\u00a0St. Francis College Brooklyn<\/strong>\u00a0(70 points), which were tied at No. 6 last week, now rate at No. 6 and 7, respectively, while\u00a0Bucknell University<\/strong>\u00a0(61 points), which knocked off George Washington 14-8 over the weekend, takes over at No. 9.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Massachusetts Institute of Technology<\/strong>\u00a0(59 points) completes the Top 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
