All eyes are on Fordham men’s water polo—a team that’s “making major waves in … a sport typically dominated by sunny Californian schools,” according to The Wall Street Journal.
“It’s been a great season so far,” head coach Brian Bacharach said. “[W]e’ve won several games against top 10 and top 20 opponents that traditionally we’ve had struggles with. We’re in the strongest position we’ve ever been as a program.”
Indeed, after winning their fourth straight Mid-Atlantic Water Polo Conference title, the Rams rose to No. 1 in the nation (in a three-way tie with UCLA and USC)—higher than any Fordham team, in any sport. Now, they’re gearing up the NCAA Championship, which starts on December 6.
Watch to hear what the players had to say about the team’s historic run.
