HOME OF BULLDOG WOMEN'S WATER POLO - Nine SCIAC Titles, Eight Collegiate III Championships

Senior center Sam Greenawalt (Riverside, CA) and senior driver Claire Quinn (Fresno, CA) garnered All-Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) accolades for their stellar play in the 2009 conference games, according to an announcement made today by the SCIAC office.

Greenawalt corralled First-Team All-Conference laurels as she scored a team-high 20 goals in SCIAC contests. She also added four assists, nine steals, three ejections drawn and four field blocks. A three-time All-SCIAC recipient, Greenawalt earned First-Team All-Conference honors in 2008 and a Second-Team All-Conference distinction in 2006.

For the first time in her four-year career, Quinn received a spot on the All-SCIAC Second Team after notching a team-high 16 steals in conference matches. She offered the second-highest goal total among Bulldog scorers in conference tilts (15) and also supplied seven assists, four ejections drawn and one field block.

Redlands (16-20, 5-5 SCIAC) ended up among the conference’s top-four teams for the 15th time in 16 years with a fourth-place finish during the 2009 season. The Maroon and Gray also reached the National Collegiate III Women’s Water Polo Championship game for the first time since 2006 as the Bulldogs finished second at the postseason tournament.

The All-SCIAC teams are voted on by the eight conference head coaches following the conclusion of the SCIAC Championships.
