TVH take home the Gold
Congrats to the Masters for another Gold performance. We got lucky and the rain stopped just before the tournament began, it was a very nice weekend in the sun.
We beat ASU 7-6, we were behind the entire game till the last min.. great defense in the fourth was the key and a little help from Gary! Second game against New Mexico we won by 3 goals..going into the 4th we were up by 6 or 7 goals and did not control the game clock and we were not very smart on defense. They came back and could have beaten us. Third game of the day was against the Scottsdale "B" team played well and won by 10 goals (heard the Scottsdale players had bets going, over and under 12 goals) They were great guys and gals.
Drew (our former TVH player - who is now coaching the Scottsdale Team) had a bbq for all the teams at his house. Awesome big burgers - hot dogs - chips - dip and light beer.. Thanks Drew.
Sunday we played Scottsdale "A" and we started the 1st half shooting into the sun and Marcus was in the cage facing the sun and could not see.. to top all this off the pool was foggy and we were white caps. First half it was close, we did not press the outside so they made almost everything they put up if they were not pressed. Then we switched ends and by then the sun and fog were not a big factor and only had 1 goal scored against us and that was a 5 mt (via Gary's Gift to the host team). In the Gold Game we were matched up with ASU again, this time as usual they had new players from other teams playing against us. We came out with 3 quick goals and they could not rebound and we beat them by 4 goals.
I heard one of our players saying we were 15-0 in Arizona... this is not a stat we should be keeping track of... we should be looking at stat's like: 1st tournament 30 plus turn overs - 2nd tournament 10 turnovers - 3rd tournament 20 turnovers. We should and are proud of that record but the real goal here is to keep improving as players, coaches and as a team.
Congrats: Marcus, Peter, Jacint, Cody, Edwin, Max, Ben, Thor, Robert, Joe and Louie.

San Diego State - Whitney
This email contains pictures. To view, choose this link ...
Dear Sandy:
The 12th annual SDSU Aztec Alumni water polo game is set to take place Saturday January 30th at noon at the beautiful SDSU Aztec Aquaplex.
As we move into the second decade of the new millenium, we would like to give special recognition to the 2000 Aztec Water Polo team, as we begin a new decade of excellence for our program. Stay tuned as we will also honor an "all-decade" team voted on and selected by SDSU alumni and friends.
The 2000 team survived Y2K, and everyone managed to get through college without a cell phone. We traveled with walkie talkies to communicate between vans, and found our destinations with old fashioned maps. We played home games at Bud Kearns Municipal Pool in Balboa Park, where every game was a standing room only crowd (no bleachers), and the locker room had that nice open air feel (no roof).
Our overall record was 18-16, with a 4-5 record in the MPSF. We placed 5th out of 10 teams at the MPSF championships hosted by San Jose State, and qualified for the Collegiate National Championships (pre-NCAA sponsored championship)hosted by Indiana University, where we placed 6th out of 16 teams.
Co-Captains Larisa Baltgalvis and Curran Teigan were named to the 2000 Collegiate Water Polo Association All-American team for their outstanding play during the season. Larisa's career mark of 235 goals remains #2 on the all-time record board, and Curran's 904 career saves remains #1 all-time for goal keeper saves. These enduring marks have inspired many great Aztec players who have followed in their footsteps.
We've come a long way since 2000, and we hope you will be able to join us and share your memories of Aztec Water Polo at our beautiful home pool, the Aztec Aquaplex on January 30th at noon.
Back Row L to R: Megan Dunbar, Kristen Haddock, Nicole Morasky, Curran Teigan, Alexis Salkin, Heather DeFelice, Whitney Winlow, Natalie Nipper, Heidi Matsumoto, Shannon Halpin.
Middle Row L to R: Kelly Falcone, Heidi Bradley, Becky Sensney, Brenna Wylie, Heather McFarland, Amber Prestegard, Lisa Swain, Casey Finnegan, Jackie Lopez.
Front Row L to R: Belen Monterrubio, Larisa Baltgalvis, Abby Carlson

From Vinny
Hi all, I'll be heading to Balad Air Base in Iraq this weekend or Monday to
be the Manpower and PERSCO flight commander in the 332nd Expeditionary Force
Support Squadron for six months. If you would like to send a care package
or card, this will be my address there:
Vinny Grossman
332 EFSS/FSM
APO AE 09315-9997
I don't think I need too much. It's a pretty big base with many amenities,
and there are THREE pools there! Nice thoughts and prayers are always
appreciated:) The only thing I can think of now would be healthy,
non-perishable food such as Trader Joe's items. There tends to be more
comfort food in the desert, read: fattening and starchy, haha:P Don't feel
the need to rush to the post office though.
My email is getting set up. I'll have some access to my gmail once I leave:
VforVincenza@gmail.com. If you'd like to get updates and pictures, let me
know which email to send them to, and I'll send news your way.
Take care and thank you for all the support this far!

Thank You from Tony and Louie
Once again I would like to mention to all parents this past weekend for assisting Louie and I run our 2 Nd ODP camp.
We could not have done it with out your support.
Thank you John Defusco for your help transporting the goals from pool to pool. Thank you Mat Taylor and Alan Benner for arranging drinks and your all round help throughout this weekend. A big thanks to the moms that arrange lunch and dinner this weekend. From Colleen Corey making flyer's and collecting money, to Angie(my wife) and Dorthy Benner doing the Lunch. A very big thank you to Wendy Defusco Who did 100x100 on Saturday and arranged dinner for about 50 people to also waiter-sing the whole event. Wow
Thank you to all the parents who helped house all the ODP kids this weekend. I hope your experience was as good as mine. Your help transporting these kids back and forth was much appreciated. I don't think I had to mention on time this whole weekend.
Thank you Master's for taking time to beat up on the ODP kids they real learned a lot.
A special Thanks to Sandy, only Louie and I know what you do for us in and outside the water. Your support is very appreciated and always welcomed. Thanks for being our coach and mentoring us both.
