Redlands Men's Water Polo Celebrates Seniors with 9-6 Triumph over Claremont-Mudd-Scripps


The University of Redlands men’s water polo team honored its seniors with a 9-6 Senior Day triumph over Claremont-Mudd-Scripps Colleges on Saturday evening at the Thompson Aquatic Center.

Fittingly, senior student-athletes accounted for all nine of Redlands’ goals. Senior center Ryan Floersch (San Jose, CA) led the team with three while senior drivers Marc Hicks (Granada Hills, CA) and Erik Grosshans (Oxnard, CA) put away two apiece. Senior driver Clint Stevenson (South Jordan, UT) and senior central defender Ian Starkie (Arroyo Grande, CA) each added one score to spell out the team’s final tally.

Minding the Bulldog cage, senior goalkeeper Teddy Trowbridge (Mercer Island, WA) stopped seven shots.

Redlands (14-16, 6-1 SCIAC) competes in the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) Championship Tournament from Friday through Sunday, hoping to return to campus as SCIAC champions. The Bulldogs last won a SCIAC championship in 2006 when it went 8-0 in regular-season conference play and then solidified its spot with a 7-5 win against Pomona-Pitzer Colleges in the championship game. In all, the program owns seven titles to its credit.
