BLUES BRING OUA MEN'S WATER POLO TITLE BACK TO TORONTO
The Varsity Blues claimed their 29th provincial title in program history as they defeated the host Carleton Ravens 11-7 in the gold-medal match of the 2012 OUA men's water polo championship on Sunday, November 18 in Ottawa.
U of T went a perfect 5-0 over the three-day tournament to earn their eighth banner in the past 11 years. After handily defeating Ottawa, 14-4, in semi-final action, the Blues met the Ravens in a rematch of last year's OUA final.
Trailing 4-3 after the first quarter, the Blues outscored the Ravens 3-0 in the second to take a lead that would not diminish. Fourth-year veteran and championship MVP Alan Chung, as well as Tanner Regan and Marko Brasic each led the Blues with three goals in the win.
