At the desk again tonight (which includes couple key members of last year’s 32-1 Fordham team). Will try and post some pictures as this is quite the event. Lot of water polo royalty here. Good articles on how it came together.

Very cool stuff @WaterPoloTrevor! The little kids at half time was heartwarming.

It looks like they turned the lights off and put spot lights on the goalie and shooter in the shootout??? Seems like an odd thing to do. Wonder if that was hard on the goalie

It did seem like they were “destined” for a shootout… Made for some cool pictures, cool effect, def. wont see in the Olympics however. Great for the exhibition.

They did do that. I would love to hear a goalie’s perspective and you are right. It was pretty cool to watch though but you probably cannot do in the Olympics.

Just reflecting but the overall presentation was a 10 out of 10. From the lights to the in-game announcing to the experience the fans got (kids 5 meter contest/autographs). I know the discussion after was around the quote, “good artists copy, great artists steal” and how what just happened should be replicated for more major water polo (and swimming) events. Got great press in New York and in some aquatics outlets.

</div>

It was such a competitive game and ending with a shootout felt anticlimactic.

I know they were probably playing under World Aquatics rules, but as it was an “Exhibition Game”, it would have been cool if they had used NCAA rules and we could have watched 2 amazing high level teams battle it out in OT!
