ASU 8, Long Beach State 2

Freshman Maud Koopman scored three goals and the Arizona State University water polo team cruised to an 8-2 victory over Long Beach State on Saturday in the opening match of the preseason USA Water Polo Collegiate Cup in Irvine, Calif.

The exhibition tournament featuring a number of the elite teams in the nation pitted the Sun Devils against an LBSU team that defeated ASU once last season and served as a perfect introductory game for a Sun Devil roster that features five new faces this season.
