Men's Water Polo

Offensive Explosion in the Pool

LOS ANGELES, Calif. (Oct. 12, 2007) – There was no lack of offense from the Tigers in the pool today as 16 different Occidental players found the back of the net in a 23-10 non-conference action today at Taylor Pool.

Cameron Brahmst and Andrew Valdes led the offensive explosion with four goals apiece. Bryce Rawers also added a pair. As uncommon as it is for the goalie to score in water polo, twice it happened today as both Blair Bergsteinsson and Max Kelly recorded a goal.

Junior attacker John Wensman accounted for three assists in the game. The Tigers got a pair of assists from Josh Kantor and Sean Inoue as well.

A trio of Tigers were tough on defense with two exclusions drawn for Rawers, Austen Oliver and Mac Hansler. Bergsteinsson recorded four steals and six others had a pair apiece.

In front of the cage Bergsteinsson blocked 11 attempts and Kelly blocked all three shots against him.

Oxy improves to 8-7 overall this season with two games scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 13. At 11:00 a.m. the Tigers will open SCIAC play against Caltech in Pasadena before returning to Taylor Pool where they will host Fresno Pacific University at 4:00 p.m.
