Dodd Brothers – Chase and Ryder – Hoping to be Part of Team USA Trip to Paris Olympics<\/strong><\/p>\n

Chase<\/b> and <\/span>Ryder Dodd<\/b>\u2014brothers and fellow UCLA Bruin water polo players\u2014are chasing the biggest roster spot in U.S. men\u2019s water polo: Representing America at the 2024 Paris Olympics. They have played together for much of their lives\u2014Chase, 20 years old, skipped this season at UCLA, while Ryder (18) finished high school early to embark on his path to a Team USA roster spot\u2014a plus as they follow a collective dream.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBeing able to play with [my brother], to have another friend to be there with you who knows you well, just to be able to talk about life with\u2026 it\u2019s been an amazing process of being away from home, being in different countries, experiencing new things,\u201d <\/span>said Chase, sighted Sunday with his brother at Corona del Mar High School.<\/span> \u201cIt\u2019s much more amazing doing it with a family member.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

If the Dodds make the cut, they may join another set of brothers representing America in Olympic polo. <\/span>Dylan<\/b> and <\/span>Quinn Woodhead<\/b> have played together for U.S. Head Coach <\/span>Dejan Udovicic<\/b> the past few years after standout careers at Stanford. The younger Quinn played two seasons on The Farm with his brother, with both winning an NCAA title in 2019.<\/span><\/p>\n

Chase and Ryder are planning to be together next season in Westwood. Ryder is one of Head Coach <\/span>Adam Wright\u2019s<\/b> prized recruits for the 2024 season while Chase will return for his junior year.<\/span><\/p>\n

First, though, are the Paris Games which open on July 26th. Rostering for the U.S. men will be announced earlier that month, with 15 athletes available for 13 spots. Olympic water polo rosters are 12 with an alternate. Chase has already been capped a number of times with the senior team. Ryder, <\/span>recently lauded<\/span><\/a> by five-time Olympian <\/span>Tony Azevedo<\/b> as one of the world\u2019s top young players, competed for the U.S. in the Pan American Games last year and then the 2024 World Aquatics Championships in Doha.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last Sunday, the Dodd brothers spoke with <\/span>Swimming World<\/span><\/i> after cheering the Bruin women\u2019s win over Hawai\u2019i for top honors at the <\/span>2024 Barbara Kalbus Invitational<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Following is an interview with Chase and Ryder Dodd conducted at the 2024 Kalbus Invite. It has been edited for brevity.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Thoughts about possibly representing the USA in the Olympics?<\/b><\/p>\n

Chase Dodd:<\/span><\/i> It’s a dream; ever since I was ten starting water polo you always looked up to the Olympics. That\u2019s the prime of any athletic competition. Being on that cusp, it hasn\u2019t really set in yet. I still can\u2019t believe I have the potential and the chance to make the Olympic team.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ryder, you might play in an Olympics before you ever play against NCAA competition.<\/b><\/p>\n

Ryder Dodd:<\/span><\/i> It\u2019s a dream come true if it were to happen. Like my brother said, it\u2019s any athlete\u2019s dream to play in the Olympics\u2014to be at that pinnacle of the sport means the world to anyone\u2026 a dream come true to do it for your country.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2026 and with your brother!<\/b><\/p>\n

CD:<\/span><\/i> Our bond\u2019s grown even stronger through this process. Being able to play with [my brother], to have another friend to be there with you who knows you so well. Just to be able to talk about life with\u2026 it\u2019s been an amazing process of being away from home, being in different countries, experiencing new things. It\u2019s much more amazing doing it with a family member.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And the Olympics are in Paris; you\u2019re not going back to the desert, you\u2019re not going where no one knows anything about water polo. You\u2019re going to one of the great cities in Europe where the sport is beloved.<\/b><\/p>\n

CD:<\/span><\/i> It\u2019s really good for us. We\u2019ve played in Europe so many times already and done many world championships\u2014and all of our players are [competing] in Europe. It\u2019s like going back home. We\u2019re not going somewhere like Japan or Qatar. We\u2019re playing in Europe\u2026 we\u2019re going back home.<\/span><\/p>\n

That helps us out a lot. It adds a priority around [the tournament]. Everyone wants to win in Europe especially; there\u2019s gonna be so many water polo fans; [polo is] decently big in France so there\u2019s gonna be a lot of fans there. It gives extra emphasis to what this Olympics means.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is a very competitive process. What happens next to help ensure that the Dodd brothers make it to Paris?<\/b><\/p>\n

RD:<\/span><\/i> Me and my brother are heading to Italy for two months to train with a professional team in Brescia. We\u2019ll spend the time training with <\/span>Max Irving<\/b>, one of our [Team USA] teammates\u2014another UCLA Bruin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We don\u2019t have any more trainings together before the team is announced [likely in May]. What we did at Worlds is impress [Head Coach Dejan Udovicic] what we\u2019re capable of.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you do make the squad, what are your expectations of Team USA\u2019s performance?<\/b><\/p>\n

CD:<\/span><\/i> We always have a chance, we\u2019re always in the position every game, we just need to find that way to win. We\u2019re always one goal less than every team.<\/span><\/p>\n

We need to find something. Every one of us has an idea about it; we just need to all come together. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
