Stanford Women’s Water Polo came roaring back with a four-goal fourth, then withstood a late SC goal to score a 9-8 overtime win over the host Trojans at Uytengsu Aquatics Center. Not only did the loss snap SC\u2019s 36-match winning streak, dating back to last season, it ended a four-game spurt of dominance by Southern Cal over the Cardinal, a run that included the 2018 NCAA Women\u2019s Water Polo Final.<\/p>\n

For USC<\/a> (20-1; 2-1 MPSF), the loss was the first of Interim Head Coach Casey Moon\u2019s<\/strong> brief career since he replaced Jovan Vavic<\/strong>, fired two weeks ago in relation with the Varsity Blues admissions scandal.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe biggest thing for us is our girls played with a lot of heart,\u201d Moon said after the game. \u201cWe get better with adversity. We\u2019re going to learn, we\u2019re going to prepare\u2026 the season goes on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Leading the way for Stanford<\/a> (15-1; 3-0 MPSF) was Makenzie Fischer<\/strong>, who registered a hat trick, including the game winner midway through the first OT period, as she speared a long pass from goalie Emilia Eichlberger<\/strong> while on her back, twisted and in one motion fired a strike past Trojan goalie Amanda Longan<\/strong>. Sarah Klass<\/strong> and Ryann Neushul<\/strong> each chipped in two goals for the Cardinal, while Eichlberger came up with eleven saves, including a critical stop late in the second overtime period, as the Trojans were knocking on the door for the equalizer.<\/p>\n

\u201cTechnically, [USC] did some really good stuff.\u201d Stanford Head Coach John Tanner<\/strong> said after the game. \u201cThey scored on their first three 6 on 5s\u2014and we missed our first three. Really, that\u2019s the difference in the game. As we started asserting ourselves more, and stabilized our 5 on 6\u2026it felt a little like it did last time, we spent a lot of energy getting back to even.\u201d<\/p>\n

Then, acknowledging that winning anytime against USC is special, he added, \u201cWe showed resolve in overtime\u2014especially coming back after giving up the lead.\u201d<\/p>\n

[Stanford vs. USC: Tale of the Water Polo Tape]<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

Longan, the reigning<\/a> National Player of the Year, was brilliant in the Trojan cage, making 15 stops, many of the circus variety. But she could not stop Fischer\u2014a veteran of the U.S. gold-medal-winning effort at the 2016 Rio Olympics who has 60 goals this season\u2014when it counted most. The all-time series between the two teams is now deadlocked at 36 apiece, and the Trojans are the only opponents the Cardinal does not have a winning record against.<\/p>\n

Intensity in and out of the pool<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The atmosphere at Uytengsu was electric, as might be expected at a match between the nation\u2019s top two teams. But it was undeniably enhanced because of public relations fallout<\/a> from the allegations against Vavic, the long-time men\u2019s and women\u2019s coach who was summarily dismissed when indictments were unsealed, alleging he had taken $250,000 in illegal payments to enable unworthy candidates\u2019 admission to Southern Cal.<\/p>\n

“Because everyone in the polo world thinks they can\u2019t continue to win without the coach who did it before\u2026 as much as they love Jovan, maybe they\u2019ll play harder to honor him,” Rich Fahey<\/strong>, father to senior Courtney, said before the match.<\/p>\n

\"No.

When Tilly Kearns<\/strong> scored a little less than halfway through the opening period, the USC partisan crowd erupted with joy\u2014and perhaps pent-up frustration resulting from an investigation that is not close to being concluded. A second score by the freshman from Australia with just 35 seconds remaining in the period put the crowd in a state of near-euphoria, with chants of \u201cFight on SC!\u201d being led by students and parents alike.<\/p>\n

Early in the second period, with the Cardinal a man up, Stanford\u2019s Neushul finally solved Longan, but then Trojan Kelsey McIntosh<\/strong> notched her first of three goals, and Courtney Fahey<\/strong> put the home team up by three halfway through. After the teams traded goals late in the quarter, SC was sitting pretty with a 5-2 lead, buoyed along by its boisterous fans.<\/p>\n

But trouble lay ahead. Leading scorer Maud Megens<\/strong> (51 goals), was in Turin, Italy for the Europa Cup<\/a>\u2014a major loss for the SC offensive juggernaut that had bludgeoned opponents for 294 goals in 20 previous matches. And Paige Hauschild<\/strong>, number two on the Trojan scoring list with 30 goals, was focused on holding back the Stanford offense. She picked up a first period exclusion and then two more in the second half and was gone two minutes into the fourth period.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor us to be empty-handed without our two best players at the very end, it\u2019s okay,\u201d Moon later said. \u201cIt\u2019s next person up.\u201d<\/p>\n

But this time, it wasn\u2019t. Last month, USC moved out to an early three-goal lead, withstood a Stanford rally to tie, then closed strong<\/a> to win 10-8. Of course, that was when Vavic was still calling the shots. Moon, in his first high-pressure encounter, was dealt a tough hand, and in Coach Tanner was facing a wily opponent who knows how to make half-time adjustments.<\/p>\n

It took another period, but adjust the Cardinal did. USC had an opportunity to pad their lead when Hannah Shabb<\/strong> was called for a five-meter penalty at the 4:35 mark of the third, but Bayley Weber<\/strong> could not convert. Kat Klass<\/strong> brought her team within two when she scored on a power play goal a minute later to make it 5-3. Still, the crowd was confident, and when Alejandra Aznar<\/strong>, the Trojan\u2019s freshman sensation from Barcelona, hit on a power play goal at 3:31, the lead was back at three. Longan and the USC defense weathered Hauschild\u2019s second exclusion, but couldn’t stave off the visitors after a penalty to Weber. Mackenzie Wiley<\/strong> converted on the ensuing man advantage, beating the USC keeper with a brilliant bar-down shot.<\/p>\n

McIntosh was again clutch as she converted on a long shot with a minute and a half left to make it 7-4 USC, and when Longan stuffed Fischer on a weak-side shot, the stars appeared in alignment for a Trojan win.<\/p>\n

It was not to be, due to a fourth period surge of Cardinal young and old. First, senior Kat Klass scored at the seven-minute mark. Forty seconds later, Hauschild was rolled, and Klass\u2019s sophomore sister Sarah beat Longan on a skip shot to cut the deficit to one. As the USC offense went quiet, though, the crowd did not; they continued to passionately exhort their girls, prompted by occasional encouragement from the Trojan bench.<\/p>\n

But no amount of shouting could slow down Ryann Neushul. A compact 5-7, the freshman, whose sisters Jamie and Kiley are Olympians with gold-medal r\u00e9sum\u00e9s, was able to power past a USC defender at the two-minute mark to beat Longan in front and knot the score at 7-all. When Fischer inexplicably broke free at 1:24 and converted on a long outlet pass, Stanford had overcome both a hot goalie and a raucous crowd to take its first lead of the afternoon.<\/p>\n

But the Trojans and their fans were not done. Cassidy Wiley<\/strong>\u2014along with the Fishers and the Klasses, half of three pairs of sisters on the Stanford roster\u2014was sent off with 55 seconds left, and Denise Mammolito<\/strong> delivered for the Trojans, hammering home a skip shot to forge a tie with 38 seconds remaining. The crowd went wild, and their delirium crescendoed when Kearns stole an errant pass to give SC the ball with 16 seconds left. But, with no obvious scoring options left on Moon\u2019s roster, the home team did not send its fans home happy.<\/p>\n

An electrifying match, and more to come<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Explaining how his team unraveled in the face of Stanford\u2019s late pressure, Moon admitted, \u201cWe saw opportunities too quickly and tried to force balls in\u2026and the shots didn\u2019t go our way.\u201d<\/p>\n

Unable to convert with the game on the line, the Trojans and their coach were ultimately stunned as Fischer demonstrated why she\u2019s the best female field player in NCAA polo.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s an Olympic gold medalist\u2014and a unique player,\u201d said Moon ruefully. \u201cAt all times we\u2019ve got to make sure we know where she is.\u201d<\/p>\n

Post-game, Stanford\u2019s Coach Tanner\u2014with 21 seasons of memories to draw on\u2014mused about why a mid-season match between the nation\u2019s two best squads was, at that moment, more important than any drama about who did what outside of the pool.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe atmosphere, the fans\u2026. That\u2019s why we do this,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
