Last week, the Pac-12 Networks\u2014arguably American water polo\u2019s most important broadcast partner\u2014announced<\/a> its 2018 fall schedule of livePac-12 sports broadcasts. Its coverage of men\u2019s intercollegiate polo will include seven matches between Pac-12 members UC-Berkeley, Stanford, UCLA and USC\u2014all part of the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation (MPSF). Veteran broadcasters Chris Dorst<\/strong><\/a> and Greg Mescall<\/strong><\/a> are expected to again describe the action.<\/p>\n

\"pac-12-network\"<\/p>\n

Coverage<\/a> begins with a bang on Saturday, Oct. 6: a scintillating match-up with Stanford hosting Southern Cal. The 2018 season will be the Cardinal’s 50th; winners of 10 national championships\u2014but none since 2002\u2014they enter the fall three wins shy of 1,000 (997-308-8).<\/p>\n

Missing from Head Coach John Vargas’<\/strong> line-up will be\u00a0Sawyer Rhodes<\/strong>, who, when he signed last year with Stanford, was considered the top young lefty in the country. After a semester negotiating dual challenges\u2014athletic and academic\u2014 Rhodes escaped The Farm for Los Angeles, where he was met with open arms by USC Head Coach Jovan Vavic<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s VERY early to predict, but if Rhodes is eligible to join current US Men\u2019s Senior Team sensation Hannes Daube<\/strong> for the 2018 campaign, the Trojans are not only likely to extend a remarkable streak of 13 straight NCAA finals appearances, in December they may be hoisting a tenth NCAA title, which would tie USC with Stanford.<\/p>\n

In another compelling pairing, on Saturday, Oct. 27 defending 2017 NCAA champions UCLA will face Cal, the 2016 winners. Last year, the Bruins won the programs’ 11th national title and UCLA’s 114th NCAA title with a taught 7-5 win<\/a> over arch-rival USC. In the 2016 final, Cal surprised<\/a> a favored Trojan squad, coming from behind to beat Vavic\u2019s squad 11-8 in overtime for the program\u2019s record 14th men\u2019s title.<\/p>\n

Cal will get a rematch with USC on Saturday, November 3 at the Uytengsu Aquatics Center. After losing 2018 Cutino Award winner Luca Cupido<\/strong><\/a> to graduation, Cal Head Coach Kirk Everist\u2019s<\/strong> squad will seek revenge for a tough loss in a 2017 NCAA semifinal. The Trojans came from three goals down in the third period to capture a 12-11 victory<\/a> and a berth in the 2017 national championship final.<\/p>\n

USC and Uytengsu will be again featured for the first of a Pac-12 Network polo double-header on November 10. The Trojans will host arch-rival UCLA in a rematch of the national championship final, when Adam Wright\u2019s<\/strong> upstart squad captured the Bruins\u2019 third NCAA title in the last four years. UCLA will likely relying on Nicolas<\/strong>\u00a0Saveljic<\/strong>, a freshman last year who led the Bruins with 45 goals. The next three leading goal scorers\u2014Max Irving<\/strong> (40 goals in 2017), Alex Roelse<\/strong> (35) and Matt Farmer<\/strong> (29)\u2014all graduated from Westwood last spring.<\/p>\n

No matter who suits up for the Bruins or Trojans, this match promises to be an exciting edition to a polo rivalry that UCLA leads 86-80-1.<\/p>\n

The second half of the November 10th doubleheader features Cal versus Stanford. In recent times, no college men\u2019s water polo rivalry has been more contentious than when the Golden Bears face the Cardinals. Last November in the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation\u2019s (MPSF) third place game, Cal\u2019s Cupido stuck a dagger into the hearts of Stanford fans when he tied the match at 8-all with seconds to spare, and then hit on the eventual game-winner in overtime to lead his team to an 10-9 win<\/a> and a berth in the NCAAs. With that loss, the Cardinal were denied an NCAA berth for the third straight year. This match\u2014the last of the regular season\u2014may go a long way to determining if Vargas\u2019<\/strong> squad, anchored by sensational set Ben Hallock<\/strong>, will end its draught of NCAA appearances.<\/p>\n

On November 18, The Pac-12 will televise the MPSF championship match as well as the all-important third-place game, which again may be the difference between which Pac-12 teams do, or don\u2019t, qualify for NCAAs.<\/p>\n
