GANNON FINISHES SEVENTH AT CWPA
SOUTHERN DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIPS
ANNAPOLIS, Md. - The Gannon men’s water polo team finished seventh
Sunday afternoon at the Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) Southern
Division Championships hosted by the U.S. Naval Academy. The seventh-place
finish tied the program’s best finish ever at the CWPA Southern Division
Championships.
Paul Musille (Canton, Ohio/Glen Oak) and Richie DiLoreto (Erie,
Pa./McDowell) each produced hat tricks as Gannon earned a 13-11 victory
over Washington & Jefferson in the seventh-place match. It was the squad’s
fourth victory in as many matches against W&J this season.
Gannon jumped out to a 5-3 lead after one quarter and went to halftime with
a slim 7-6 edge. The Golden Knights increased the lead to 11-9 after three
quarters before both teams score twice in the final frame.
Greg Naranjo (Coral Springs, Fla./Stoneman Douglas) and Dmitriy
Simonoff (Vernon Hills, Ill./Stevenson) tallied two goals each. John
Krakowski (Erie, Pa./Cathedral Prep), Zach Dusckas (Erie, Pa./McDowell),
and Stephen Espinet (Port of Spain, Trinidad/Maple Leaf) added one
score apiece. Brandon Thomas (Erie, Pa./Cathedral Prep) recorded 13
saves in goal.
Gannon concluded its season at 13-9 while Washington & Jefferson ended
at 8-14. The Golden Knights have recorded a winning record four times in their
seven-year history.
