Water polo faces
tough weekend
BY LEE PASSMORE
Co-Sports Editor
Fresno State's No. 8 nationally ranked
water polo team will definitely find its
bouyancy tested when it hosts two true
college water polo heavyweights this
weekend.
The Bulldogs will welcome the No. 2
and 3 water polo teams in the nation
respectively when they take on California
and Stanford on Saturday and Sunday at
the Clovis Olympic Swim Complex at
Clovis West High School
Saturday's match with Cal is scheduled
for 2 p.m. while Sunday's skirmish with
Stanford is set to Stan at 1 p.m.
No. 2 California is the defending
' NCAA champion, which featured none
other than Olympic hero Matt Biondi as
one of its stirs. Biondi is now gone, but
Cal has a lot of talent coming back, led
by Kirk Everist and goalie Jeff Brush.
No. 3 Stanford has at least one player
who will be familiar with the Clovis
West pool. That would be two-time All-
Amcrican Todd Kemp, who also starred at
Clovis West in his prep years. *
In fact, both Cal and Stanford have
several players who are acquainted with
the- Fresno area. Cal has five local pro¬
ducts en its roster while Stanford has
three in addilion to Kemp.
FSU coach Harold Zane is well aware
of what-lies ahead for his team. "Cal and
Stanford arc consistently good teams,"
said Zane. "Well have to prepare our¬
selves for their intensity."
The Bulldogs, 7-8 on the season, are
coming off of a split of four games in the
Northern California Invitational last week¬
end. FSU beat UC Santa Barbara and Cal
State LA but lost to UCLA in the first
game and lost to Pacific in sudden death.
