WOMENS WATERPOLO
President AMANDA MARTILLA | amartill@ucsd.edu
Officer RILEY CRISTAT | rcristat@ucsd.edu
The UCSD Women’s Club Water Polo is looking forward to the 2022-2023 year! Although our team is competitive and ranks highly in the Southwest division of the CWPA league, we welcome everyone regardless of experience. We practice from Fall quarter until mid-Spring quarter, with our game season starting during Winter quarter. The Club WWP team went to nationals in 2018 and 2022. In the most recent year, we placed 3rd in the nation, and we will be training hard to return to nationals this season.
