'Roo Women's Water Polo Headed to CWPA Tournament

SHERMAN, Texas - The Austin College women's water polo team is getting set to open up the CWPA Division III Tournament in Moline, Ill., this weekend, with the 'Roos getting into the pool as the No. 1-seed after finishing the regular season with a perfect 8-0 conference mark.

Austin College is 11-7 overall this year, and will be looking to bring back its first CWPA Tournament Championship since 2022. The 'Roos have reached the tournament final each of the past two years, coming up short against host school Augustana both times.
