WASHINGTON - Head Coach Barry King and the GW water polo team have announced their 2025 regular season schedule. The 29-game schedule, which features 12 Mid-Atlantic Water Polo Conference (MAWPC) matchups, begins on Aug. 29 at the Triton Invite in La Jolla, Calif.
GW will be put to the test early and often in 2025, as eight of the Revolutionaries' first nine games are against teams that finished in the top 20 last season. Final rankings from 2024 have been included for teams that finished in the top 20.Â
Opening weekend for the Revolutionaries features a trip to the West Coast for six matchups against California-based opponents. From Aug. 29-31, the Revolutionaries will face UC Santa Barbara (No. 15), Occidental, USC (No. 2), Long Beach St. (No. 6), UC Davis (No. 14) and UC San Diego (No. 12).
GW then returns East for the Princeton Invitational, where the Revolutionaries will continue their early-season gauntlet on Sept. 5 and 6 with games against Santa Clara (No. 17), the reigning national champions UCLA (No. 1) and California Baptist (No. 9).
The final test before MAWPC play commences comes at the Navy Invite on Sept. 12 and 13, where the Buff & Blue will meet LIU, Salem (RV) and Princeton (No. 5).Â
The MAWPC conference is made up of seven teams: GW, Bucknell, Fordham (No. 3), Mercyhurst, Mount St. Mary's (Md.), Navy (No. 19) and Wagner. GW will face each conference opponent twice, once at home and once away, during the regular season ahead of the MAWPC Championship, to be held Nov. 21-23 in New York City.Â
GW plays at home to open conference play on Sept. 27 with games against Bucknell and Mercyhurst and continues with a home match on Sept. 28 vs. Mount St. Mary's. GW will play all of its matches on the road in October, which includes five games out of conference, before hosting the final three games of the regular season against Wagner and Fordham on Nov. 2, and vs. Navy on Nov. 7.Â
