RIVERSIDE--- The California Baptist University men's water polo team will have its final Big West regular-season test this week as they host the #7 UCSD Tritons with the Regular Season Title on the line.
The Lancers pulled off a thrilling sudden-death victory over #12 Long Beach State last weekend, setting up a showdown with UCSD this week as both teams sit at 3-1 in conference action. A win for the Lancers would clinch at least a share of the Regular Season Title, and a win and a UCSB loss to Cal State Fullerton on Sunday would clinch the title outright in the Lancers' first season in the conference.
The Tritons come into the matchup ranked seventh in the nation, the highest among Big West schools, and won 19-11 over Cal State Fullerton in their most recent conference match. UCSD also has conference wins over UCI and Long Beach, with its lone loss coming at the hands of UCSB at home in Mid-October. This will be the 23rd all-time matchup between the two SoCal programs, with the Lancers' last win coming in 2021 at a neutral tournament. CBU will look to pick up its first-ever win at home against the Tritons after falling short in the previous six games.
