Dhalluin scores 3 goals, Stanford beats USC 11-7 to win NCAA women's water polo
title
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) --- Juliette Dhalluin score three goals on Sunday and the
Stanford defense allowed just one second-half goal to help the Cardinal beat
Southern California 11-7 to claim its 10th NCAA women's water polo championship
and third in the last four seasons.
No. 1 Stanford (25-1) finished the season on a 10-game win streak, dating to a
12-11 loss to the Trojans on March 29. The Cardinal beat USC 11-7 on April 27
in the semifinals of the MPSF Championship.
Dhalluin scored with a second left in the first half to make it 6-6 and again
with 6:47 left in the third --- the only goal of the quarter --- gave Stanford
the lead for good.
Serena Browne added a goal with 6:04 to play and another with 3:06 remaining to
make it 9-6.
Ryann Neushul scored a goal to give her and has 228 --- fifth most in program
history --- in her seven-year career (after winning the 2019 national
championship, Neushul stepped away from the Cardinal for two years to train
with the U.S. national team) and is the first four-time NCAA team champion in
Stanford history.
Christine Carpenter had nine saves for the Cardinal.
Meghan McAninch led USC (29-5) with two goals and Anna Reed finished with 11
saves.
The Cardinal are the all-time leaders in NCAA team championship with 137 and
have won at least one team title in each of the past 49 seasons.
