Besides a sloppy 4th (so far) I think our defense has been really good, and so has our keeper. On offense, it seemed USC would give our outside guys a lot of space, and we took advantage of it a few times. I don't know a lot of the tactics or technicalities of water polo, but it seemed USC was really overmatched. It could be just be an off year, who could blame them, but I wonder if we are starting to really see the fall of the USC water polo empire, now that enough time has passed since Vavic was fire.
