Over the weekend from the home pool of the USC Trojans, California Golden Bears men’s water polo team (18-6) showed that they can potentially win the 2018 NCAA championship in two weeks. After rallying to beat USC in the semifinal on Saturday, Golden Bears came really close to win their first MPSF championship in about a decade (Bears did not win the conference tournament in 2016 when they did win the NCAA tournament) but ultimately lost 12-10 to Stanford (20-2). Unfortunately, the NCAA selection committee opted to include both UCLA and USC as at-large bids over the Golden Bears.
