For the 5th time in 6 years, Cal Women’s Water Polo (16-8, 3-3 in MPSF) will play in the NCAA tournament. With three at-large bids in addition to the automatic bid for the MPSF winner, it was always expected that all 4 of Cal, Stanford, UCLA, and USC, will make the NCAA Women’s Water Polo Championships; the other 3 California Pac-12 schools are the only ones to have won this NCAA title in its history (1st championship took place in 2001).
This year’s NCAA championship will be hosted by Stanford on May 10th-12th. Below is the full bracket.
