This was expected to be a rebuilding year for Boston College’s club women’s water polo team. After coming in third last season, the Eagles lost 6 players to graduation and 3 to study abroad, leaving only 6 returning players on the roster. Of the 14 players on this year’s roster, 8 had never played water polo before coming to BC.
Despite having the odds seemingly stacked against them, the Eagles are heading into May undefeated, having won all of their 11 games by at least 5 points. Last weekend, the Eagles competed in the New England championship game.
