The junior is eighth in the nation with 135 saves and is first with 12.72 saves per game. The Lions have been getting it done on defense, thanks in large part to All-American goalie Rachel Riddell. The Lions, who continue to hold at fourth in the nation, won the Triton Invitational to start the season and took fifth in the Gaucho Invitational, which featured 15 of the country's top-16 teams. This week's games will mark the first time in 12 contests on the year the Lions will play unranked teams.
The Lions are 9-3 on the season after splitting a pair of games last week, including a 10-9 win over WWPA rival and 13th-ranked UC San Diego on Friday and an 8-2 setback to No. All the games will be at the Burns Recreation and Aquatics Center, where LMU holds a 52-9 all-time record at the six-year old facility. The Lions will take on Maryland on Wednesday, March 22 to start the week before hosting the nine-team invitational on Friday and Saturday, March 24-25. It will be a very busy week for the fourth-ranked Loyola Marymount women's water polo team as they will play five games, including four in the third annual LMU Women's Water Polo Invitational.
