University of Redlands Men's Water Polo Captures SCIAC Title

With a 4-2 victory over Claremont-Mudd-Scripps Colleges in the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) Championship Tournament final on Sunday afternoon in Claremont, the University of Redlands men's water polo team earned the SCIAC title outright.

The Bulldogs last won a SCIAC title in 2006 when they posted a perfect 10-0 record in conference play. This marks the program's eighth conference championship, all of which have come under the direction of Head Coach Tom Whittemore.

Redlands (17-16, 9-1 SCIAC) has earned an automatic berth into the WWPA Championships, which will be held at Chapman University from Nov. 20-22. Opponents and game times are to be announced once the field is set.
