PRINCETON, NJ. Thursday night\u2019s 2019 Holiday Cup match between the Canadian women\u2019s water polo team and the U.S. national squad was not indicative of the either team\u2019s ability. The final score \u2014 17-6 for the Americans \u2014 suggests a yawning gap between the programs, particularly as three U.S. starters, Rachel Fattal<\/strong>, Ashleigh Johnson<\/strong> and Maggie Steffens<\/strong>, were in the stands watching their teammate play.<\/p>\n

\"canada-logo\"The Canadians were also missing a key starter, goalie Jessica Gaudreault<\/strong>, making this an uneven contest for both sides. Which it was; by intermission the Americans broke out to an 11-1 lead on their northern neighbors before letting in a flurry of late Canadian goals.<\/p>\n

Leading the scoring for Team USA were Makenzie Fischer<\/strong>, Paige Hauschild<\/strong> and Maddie Musselman<\/strong>, who contributed three goals each. Joelle Bekhazi<\/strong> had a hat trick to lead Team Canada.<\/p>\n

In other action, Italy held off the Netherlands 7-4 in an extremely physical match; with seven points (2-2) the Dutch have the inside track to face the Americans (3-0; 8 points) in the Holiday Cup Final Saturday in Princeton’s De Nunzio Pool. But, if Italy (2-1; five points) upsets the Americans tonight there will be a rematch between the two teams in tomorrow’s final.<\/p>\n

Searching for consistency<\/h3>\n

The story of the Canada vs. USA contest was not the outcome but incremental progress being made by the Canadians under Head Coach David Paradelo<\/strong>. Now in his second year leading the program following the departure of Theocharis Pavlides<\/strong> in April 2018, the boyish Paradelo has already led his club further than any of his recent predecessors. Last August at the 2019 Pan American Games, Canada qualified for the Olympics for the first time since 2004. They got there by backing in \u2014 the U.S. got an Olympic berth by virtue of a 2019 FINA World League Super title win, so the Canadians took the spot reserved for the Pan Am games winner.<\/p>\n

No matter how they qualified, Parandelo and his roster \u2014 a mixture of youth and experience \u2014 are embracing their Olympic moment.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve been progressing in a lot of the parts of the game,\u201d he said in the De Nunzio Pool stands after the match. \u201cWe still have a lot of room to improve. Right now, it\u2019s about doing this consistently.\u201d<\/p>\n

Consistency was a recurring theme for Paradelo, who has been coaching for Water Polo Canada since 2010. His squad consists of veteran players such as Krystina Alogbo<\/strong> and Bekhazi \u2014 who have been staples of the national team for a decade \u2014 as well as Kyra Christmas<\/strong> and Axelle Crevier<\/strong>, both of whom are 22. The meshing of young and old is never easy, and the Canadian coach said that this is the biggest challenge for his club in the run up to Tokyo.<\/p>\n

\u201cExpectations were to come here and work on what we have since the beginning of the year. Since last April it\u2019s been piece-by-piece,\u201d Paradelo said. \u201cRight now, we\u2019re not doing it consistently, so it\u2019s to make sure those things are consistent game-in-game out.\u201d<\/p>\n

But, there are signs of measurable progress by the team, suggesting that Canadian hopes to rise above the program\u2019s current FINA ranking of eight are not unfounded.<\/p>\n

A tournament last weekend in Montreal saw China, the Netherlands and Russia join the U.S. and Canada in two days of round-robin play. The results were favorable for the host squad: a 2-2 record, including a huge win 11-10 win over a strong Dutch team, their first such win over the Netherlands in eight years. Also noteworthy; Canada was within four goals of it\u2019s more successful neighbor in a 10-6 loss that saw the home team tied at the half.<\/p>\n

Respect earned in the pool<\/h3>\n

This week in Princeton has brought additional respect to a Canadian program that for more than a decade has been outside of the Olympic picture. A loss to Holland on Monday was followed Wednesday by another signature win, this time a by 12-9 over Italy, Canada\u2019s first win over the Italians in almost a decade.<\/p>\n

A win tonight against a Russian squad that has thus far gone winless (0-3) in Holiday Cup play will put the Canadians (1-2; 3 points) in Saturday\u2019s third-place match. Which is important; competition against some of the world’s top squads is beneficial, so more games is ideal. As Paradelo pointed out, having two weeks of back-to-back matches\u00a0 is\u00a0 similar to the Olympics schedule \u2014 and provides the benefit of game experience for all the practice time his players will put in between now and the Tokyo Games next July.<\/p>\n

A year-long practice schedule means that Christmas and Emma Wright<\/strong>, a senior at Cal, will miss the 2020 NCAA season. But, it will be worth it as their coach builds the kind of program which American Head Coach Adam Krikorian<\/strong> has, one where talented women work with their national team coaches as well as compete in NCAA varsity polo competition that at the highest levels rivals the best women\u2019s professional play in the world.<\/p>\n

To achieve this, the goal is to practice and compete whenever and wherever possible.<\/p>\n

“We\u2019ve been training since the end of September,\u201d Paradelo said. \u201cIt\u2019s about testing where we are now and knowing what we have to adapt to get there to the Olympics.”<\/p>\n

Then, adding about the focus on high-level competition the past two weekend, he added: \u201cIt’s the best way for us to see where we are at this point in time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Which, by recent results, appears to be good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
