LOS ANGELES, CA. In a taught game that in addition to 15 exclusions included numerous offensive fouls, the Trojans of USC willed their way to a compelling 5-4 win in the 2018 NCAA Women\u2019s Water Polo championship match over defending national champion Stanford.<\/p>\n

\"\"Behind three goals from Denise Mammolito<\/strong> and ten saves by Amanda Longan<\/strong>\u20142018 NCAA Tournament MVP\u2014USC was able to overcome its lowest offensive output of the season while holding Cutino Award finalist Mackenzie Fischer<\/strong> to a single assist. Also scoring for the Trojans, in her final game donning USC\u2019s cardinal and gold, was senior co-captain Brianna Daboub<\/strong> and freshman sensation\u00a0Paige Hauschild<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Mammolito\u2019s goal on the break beat Stanford goalie Julie Hermann<\/strong> (9 saves) with 1:57 left in the fourth quarter, giving USC the lead. Longan and the Trojan defense then held off the Cardinal on two final possessions, with the junior netminder stopping a Fischer shot with 22 seconds left to preserve the one-goal advantage.<\/p>\n

For Stanford, Madison Berggren<\/strong>, Aria Fischer<\/strong>, Kat Klass<\/strong> and Jordan Raney<\/strong> all notched single goals. The four goals scored represented the Cardinal\u2019s lowest goal total of the season. Nine goals scored is the lowest total since the 2009 final, when UCLA captured the last of it five straight national titles, beating USC by the same 5-4 score.<\/p>\n

\u201cWinning is great, but when you\u2019ve coached for so many years, it\u2019s more about your players,\u201d said Trojan Head Coach Jovan Vavic<\/strong>, whose program captured it\u2019s fifth NCAA women\u2019s title. \u201cI\u2019m really happy for them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stanford, which was making its ninth straight appearance in the national championship final, fell just short of winning a seventh title in 15 trips to the finals.<\/p>\n

\u201cUSC does a really good job of pressuring on defense, and they keep the pressure on during counterattacks,\u201d said Cardinal Head Coach John Tanner<\/strong>. \u201cThe final goal being off a counter attack is something that had been in the cards during the course of the game.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the win, Vavic adds to an impressive trove of championship hardware. His men\u2019s and women\u2019s polo programs have now combined for a total of 15 national championships, more than any other NCAA varsity program.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
