The men did really well last Sunday. They beat #19 Brown and then had a wonderful win against #12 Princeton. I watched the Princeton game on ESPN Plus. --It was great.

Men get another split on the second day of the Harvard Invitational.
https://gwsports.com/news/2019/10/20/mens-water-polo-closes-2-2-weekend.aspx?path=wpolo
We beat St. Francis 9-8, and lost to Brown 10-16.
We lost to St. Francis back in September. And we beat Brown last month.
Harvard won all of their matches this weekend, and they are now 18-0. They are the only undefeated team now in the CWPA. (They only beat us by one point yesterday.)
We play Navy next Friday, Johns Hopkins on Saturday, and Navy again on Sunday.
Rest up, men!!!

A final couple of notes to the men's season:
*We lost to Bucknell in the MAWPC finals, but the Bison then went on to beat Harvard in the first round of the NCAA tournament. That was Harvard's first loss of the season.
* Bucknell then lost to USC, who then lost to Stanford, who beat Pacific for the Championship.
* GW's Andrew Mavis and Andras Levai earned All-American honors for the season. (They both also earned All-Conference and All-MAWPC honors.)

NICE SEASON.
