r/waterpolo

Sunday closed a major weekend of men’s college water polo with Stanford completing one of the strongest two-day road trips of the season. One day after handing No. 1 UCLA its first loss, the No. 2 Cardinal beat No. 3 USC 16-12. UCLA responded by holding off No. 4 Cal, while No. 9 Princeton and No. 15 Navy added conference victories.

No. 2 Stanford 16, No. 3 USC 12

Stanford completed a huge Los Angeles weekend by beating USC one day after taking down No. 1 UCLA.

The Cardinal couldn’t have started much better defensively. Stanford shut USC out in the first quarter and built a 6-0 lead before the Trojans finally scored with 6:18 remaining in the second.

USC didn’t fold. The Trojans erupted for seven second-quarter goals and cut Stanford’s advantage to 9-7 at halftime. But Stanford absorbed the run, pushed the lead back to 14-11 by the end of the third and scored the first two goals of the fourth to regain complete control.

Stanford goals: James Rozolis-Hill 3, Ben Forer 3, Alex Gheorghe 2, Connor Ohl 2, Konstantinos Mathiopoulos 2, Will Schneider 2, Ryan Ohl 1, Dimitrios Chatzis 1.

Stanford assists: Ben Forer had a verified assist. Stanford’s published recap does not provide a complete individual assist table, so additional assists are not being assigned.
Stanford’s published recap also does not list complete goalkeeper save totals, so none are being inferred.

The same applies to USC’s complete individual goals, assists and goalkeeper saves: USC’s Sunday recap/box-score data was not fully accessible through the official sources during this review, so I’m not reconstructing statistics from secondary sites.

The difference: the opening eight minutes. Stanford forced USC to spend the rest of the afternoon chasing a six-goal deficit. The Trojans made an impressive second-quarter run, but against a team as balanced as Stanford, digging out of 6-0 takes a tremendous amount of energy.

Stanford finished the weekend 2-0 against No. 1 UCLA and No. 3 USC, scoring 35 goals against the two Los Angeles powers.

No. 1 UCLA 13, No. 4 Cal 11

This was much closer than a typical 1-vs.-4 matchup.

UCLA led 3-2 after the first, but Cal completely shut the Bruins out in the second and carried a 4-3 lead into halftime.

UCLA finally found its offense in the third. The Bruins scored six times—including two five-meter penalties—to take a 9-7 lead.

Cal answered immediately.

Ilias Angelopoulos scored twice and Beso Akhvlediani added another as the Bears opened the fourth on a 3-0 run, turning a 9-7 deficit into a 10-9 lead.

Then came the turning point.

UCLA drew consecutive five-meter penalties. Ryder Dodd converted both, putting the Bruins back ahead 11-10. Peter Castillo followed with a close-range finish for the insurance goal before Dodd eventually finished the game into an empty net.

UCLA
Goals: Ryder Dodd 5; Frederico Jucá Carsalade 2; Peter Castillo 2; Luka Gladović 2; Max Matthews 1; Jackson Harlan 1.
Assists: Ryder Dodd 3; Frederico Jucá Carsalade 1; Luka Gladović 1; Bode Brinkema 1; Ben Liechty 1. UCLA was officially credited with 8 team assists.
Goalkeeper: Nate Tauscher — 8 saves, 4 steals.
Dodd finished with 5 goals and 3 assists for eight points, producing the biggest offensive performance of the game.

Cal
Goals: Ilias Angelopoulos 4; Tomas Perrone 3; Beso Akhvlediani 2; Alex Oprea 1; Patrik Kolak 1.
Assists: Beso Akhvlediani 3; Mason Netzer 2; Tomas Perrone 1; Patrik Kolak 1; Brennan Fuchslin 1; Loui Schuler 1.
Goalkeeper: Aran Pina — 9 saves, 2 steals.
Akhvlediani finished with 2 goals and 3 assists, while Angelopoulos scored four on six shots and drew three exclusions.

Cal was charged with 20 exclusions compared with UCLA’s 12.

UCLA scored five extra-man goals and went 4-for-4 from five meters. Cal scored five extra-man goals and converted its lone penalty.
Those penalties were enormous. Two of UCLA’s four five-meter conversions came on consecutive fourth-quarter possessions after Cal had taken a 10-9 lead.

The difference: UCLA’s ability to generate five-meter opportunities. Cal did enough defensively to shut UCLA out for an entire quarter and regained the lead late, but four converted penalties gave the Bruins a scoring source that Cal couldn’t match.

No. 9 Princeton 16, No. 19 Brown 8
Brown actually landed the first punch.
Mac Berry opened the scoring, and after Princeton went ahead 2-1, Robert Norell tied it before Roland Csendes put Brown back in front 3-2.

Then Princeton took over.

The Tigers scored six more before halftime, with Brown getting only a late Jaxson Tierney goal during the stretch. Princeton carried an 8-4 lead into halftime and scored the first three goals of the second half to effectively put the game away.

Princeton
Goals: Tas Palcza 4; Ádám Peocz 3; Gavin Appeldorn 2; Otto Stothart 2; Enrique Nuño 1; Taylor Bell 1; Tibi Cojocariu 1.
Princeton’s official recap lists those scorers but does not publish a complete individual assist table, so assists are not being inferred.
Goalkeeper: Kristóf Kovács — 15 saves.
That is the number that jumps off the page. Kovács gave Princeton 15 saves in an eight-goal ranked victory.

Brown
Goals: Robert Norell 2; Mac Berry 1; Roland Csendes 1; Jaxson Tierney 1; Filip Josipovic 1; Colton Bell 1; Ramzi Megali 1.
Brown’s official recap does not provide complete individual assist totals.

Goalkeepers: Ryan Miele started; Will Corr took over in the second half. Brown’s official recap does not publish their individual save totals, so none are being assigned.

The difference: Princeton’s defensive response. Brown got exactly the start it wanted and twice held a lead. Once Princeton settled in defensively, however, Brown stopped getting enough clean finishes. Kovács’ 15 saves allowed the Tigers to turn defensive possessions into sustained momentum at the other end.

Princeton improved to 14-1 overall and 3-0 in NWPC play.

No. 15 Navy 15, Bucknell 8
This was much closer through three quarters than the final score suggests.

Navy led only 2-1 after the first and 6-3 at halftime. The Midshipmen stretched the advantage to 10-6 in the third, but Bucknell continued answering and pulled within 10-8 with 11 seconds remaining.

That became the game’s biggest sequence.
Navy immediately went the length of the pool and scored with one second remaining in the third, restoring an 11-8 advantage.

Bucknell never scored again.

Navy shut the Bison out 4-0 in the fourth quarter and scored the final five goals of the game.

Navy
Goals: Quinn Bartlett 4; Aiden Day 3; Declan Bartlett 3; Billy Zech 2; Maximus Arnold 1; Kiefer Black 1; James Mulvey 1.
Navy’s official recap does not publish a complete individual assist table, so assists are not being guessed.
Goalkeeper: Ryan Munch — 9 saves.

Bucknell
Jack Dillane scored Bucknell’s first goal. Tyler Hedblad and Hudson Tweed scored during the second quarter, while Jovan Udovicic scored twice in the third as Bucknell continued challenging Navy.

Bucknell’s official game story does not publish a complete individual goals-and-assists table or goalkeeper save total in the available recap, so incomplete totals are not being presented as full statistics.

Navy also converted multiple five-meter opportunities, including penalties by Aiden Day during key stretches.

The difference: the final second of the third quarter.

At 10-8, Bucknell had momentum and was heading into the fourth only two goals down. Navy’s immediate answer with one second remaining changed the emotional complexion of the game. The Midshipmen then shut Bucknell out for the final eight minutes and scored four more.

That’s a veteran response from a ranked team on the road.

Biggest Takeaways

Stanford owned the weekend. There isn’t a stronger two-game résumé in the country right now than beating No. 1 UCLA 19-15 and No. 3 USC 16-12 on consecutive days in Los Angeles. Stanford scored 35 goals against two of the country’s elite programs and showed two different ways to win—outlasting UCLA in a shootout and jumping USC 6-0 before managing the game from in front.

The next No. 1 vote just became fascinating. UCLA entered the weekend unanimously No. 1 and remains 15-1, but Stanford now owns the head-to-head result and followed it immediately with another top-three road win.

UCLA’s response mattered. Twenty-four hours after its first loss, UCLA found itself down to Cal at halftime and again at 10-9 late in the fourth. The Bruins responded instead of letting Saturday’s loss carry into Sunday. Ryder Dodd’s 5-goal, 3-assist performance was central to it.

Cal is much closer to the top three than its 9-4 record suggests. The Bears lost 15-14 to USC in sudden death Saturday and were leading UCLA 10-9 late Sunday. Aran Pina made 24 saves across the two games, and Cal has now repeatedly pushed the nation’s best teams deep into fourth quarters.

Kristóf Kovács had Sunday’s biggest goalkeeper performance. Fifteen saves while holding No. 19 Brown to eight goals gave Princeton exactly the kind of back-end performance that allows a good team to create separation.

Navy continues to move in the right direction. The Midshipmen improved to 12-2 and 3-0 in MAWPC play, and their 5-0 closing run against Bucknell showed an ability to finish after being pushed for three quarters.

Sunday reinforced what Saturday started: Stanford made the biggest national statement of the weekend, UCLA responded, Princeton continues to look legitimate, and Navy keeps building.

Saturday, October 3 delivered one of the strongest men’s college water polo slates of the season. No. 2 Stanford handed No. 1 UCLA its first loss, No. 3 USC survived No. 4 Cal in sudden death, and No. 13 UC Santa Barbara picked up two ranked wins in San Jose.

No. 2 Stanford 19, No. 1 UCLA 15
Eight ties. A one-goal Stanford lead after each of the first three quarters. Then the Cardinal finally broke the game open with a seven-goal fourth.

UCLA pulled within 13-12 on Ryder Dodd’s fourth goal with 7:08 remaining, but Stanford created the separation UCLA had prevented all afternoon and handed the Bruins their first loss of the season.

Stanford: Alex Gheorghe 3 goals, Guido Leonardi 3, James Rozolis-Hill 3, Ben Forer 2, Gor Mnatsakanian 2, Connor Ohl 2, Jack West 2, Zsombor Balogh 1 and Dimitrios Chatzis 1. Bernardo Herzer made 9 saves.

UCLA: Ryder Dodd produced 4 goals and 5 assists, Ben Liechty had 1 goal and 3 assists, while Danilo Dragović, Frederico Jucá Carsalade, Max Matthews and Chase McFarland scored twice each. Ben Larsen and Wade Sherlock added one goal apiece. Nate Tauscher made 5 saves.

UCLA actually had the better 6-on-5 numbers, converting 6-of-10 compared with Stanford’s 2-of-6. Stanford countered by going a perfect 4-for-4 from five meters, while UCLA was 2-for-2.

The difference: Stanford didn’t need to dominate the extra-man game because it consistently produced goals elsewhere. Seven fourth-quarter goals against the nation’s No. 1 team was the decisive stretch. (UCLA Bruins)

No. 3 USC 15, No. 4 Cal 14 — Sudden Death

This was essentially a one-possession game for 40 minutes.

USC led 7-6 at halftime before Cal tied it 10-10 through three. The Bears went ahead 12-11 late in the fourth, but Luke Nelson converted an extra-man opportunity with less than a second remaining to force overtime. After two overtime periods still couldn’t settle it, Strahinja Krstic scored the sudden-death winner with 56 seconds remaining.

USC: Robert López Duart 4 goals; Luke Nelson 3 goals, 1 assist; Gavin Conant 2 goals; Apostolos Georgaras 2 goals, 2 assists; Strahinja Krstic 2 goals, 2 assists; Efe Naipoglu 2 goals, 2 assists. Ante Jerkovic led the distribution with 4 assists. USC totaled 15 goals and 14 assists. Charles Mills was huge with 15 saves, including two penalty stops.

Cal: Beso Akhvlediani 4 goals, 2 assists; Tomas Perrone 2 goals, 2 assists; Dominic Brown 2 goals, 1 assist; Ilias Angelopoulos 2 goals; Alex Oprea 2 goals and 3 assists; Amir Shafrir 1 goal; Patrik Kolak 1 goal. Cal totaled 14 goals and 12 assists. Aran Pina matched Mills with 15 saves.
Cal was charged with 17 exclusions and USC 14. The teams combined for 84 shots and 29 goals.

The difference: goalkeeper play kept both teams alive, but USC executed the two biggest possessions of the game—Nelson’s last-second regulation equalizer and Krstic’s sudden-death finish. USC has now beaten Cal twice this season. (USC Athletics)

No. 13 UC Santa Barbara 13, No. 9 San Jose State 12 — OT

UCSB built a 6-3 halftime lead before San Jose State completely changed the game in the second half. The Spartans eventually went ahead 10-9, and after UCSB regained an 11-10 advantage, Samu Biros scored with three seconds remaining to force overtime.

Charlie Johnson then scored both of UCSB’s overtime goals, including the winner with 35 seconds left.

UCSB: Luigi Canepa was outstanding with 5 goals and 2 assists. Charlie Johnson scored 4; Finn Genc had 2 goals and 3 assists; Sloan Brown and Dash D’Ambrosia each recorded 1 goal and 2 assists. UCSB finished with 13 goals and 9 assists. Wyatt Pieretti made 13 saves.

San Jose State: Sam Keightley produced 5 goals and 3 assists; Samu Biros scored 4; Aron Sárfalvi had 1 goal and 2 assists; Giancarlo Marquez and Aidan Johnson scored once each. Mitchell Keightley added 3 assists and Zalan Hegedus two. SJSU finished with 12 goals and 11 assists. Alexey Poletaev made 7 saves and Stellan Karkazis added 3, giving the Spartans 10.

UCSB had 12 exclusions and San Jose State 11.

The difference: Pieretti gave UCSB the goalkeeper performance it needed, while Canepa and Johnson supplied nine of the Gauchos’ 13 goals. Most impressive was UCSB’s response after losing the lead and then surrendering a tying goal with three seconds remaining. They reset and won the game in overtime. (University of California, Santa Barbara)

No. 13 UC Santa Barbara 14, No. 20 Saint Mary’s 8

UCSB completed its ranked sweep by jumping Saint Mary’s 4-0, weathering the Gaels’ second-quarter response and then winning the third quarter 5-1 to put the game away.

UCSB: Landon Lassahn 3 goals; Charlie Johnson and Camren Simoncelli 2 each; Kai Ross, Sloan Brown, Luigi Canepa, Finn Genc, Tyler Roller, Noah Loo and Hayden Tully one apiece. Ross, Canepa, Genc, Roller and Loo each recorded assists as UCSB finished with 14 goals and 6 assists. Wyatt Pieretti made 6 saves, Haakon Lacy 1 and Finn Byrne 1 for 8 total saves.

Saint Mary’s: Leo Hachem 3 goals; Donovan Swann 2; Nick Valente 2 goals and 1 assist; Mason Black 1. Ferran De Witt, Kyle Stilinovich and Stryder Stelck also recorded assists, giving Saint Mary’s 8 goals and 4 assists. Federico Castrucci made 7 saves; Griffin Lagsdin played the fourth.

Saint Mary’s had 10 exclusions to UCSB’s 13. UCSB converted two extra-man goals and three penalties; Saint Mary’s scored once on the extra man and once from five meters.

The difference: the third quarter. Saint Mary’s had fought back into the game, but UCSB’s 5-1 response eliminated the possibility of another tight finish. (University of California, Santa Barbara)

No. 7 Long Beach State 16, No. 20 Concordia Irvine 12

This was far more competitive than the final margin.

The teams were tied 7-7 at halftime, and Concordia came back again to make it 11-11 in the fourth. Then Gabi Acosta took over. Acosta scored four times in the final period, including consecutive goals that restored a 13-11 Long Beach lead.

Marc Frigola Navarro led Long Beach with 5 goals, Federico Gulisano scored 3 and Acosta had 4—all four coming in the fourth quarter. Long Beach also got an important third-quarter 6-on-5 goal from Zalán Nagy and another power-play conversion from Sam Abbott.

Long Beach goalkeeper Sergi Ramon produced three consecutive saves during a key third-quarter stretch. The official published recap available for this check does not provide a complete individual assist or goalkeeper-save breakdown for both teams, so those numbers are not being inferred.

The difference: closing ability. Concordia did enough to get a ranked road-neutral game back to 11-11. Long Beach then put the ball in the hands of its experienced attackers, and Acosta delivered four fourth-quarter goals. (Long Beach State University Athletics)

No. 7 Long Beach State 20, Redlands 8
DIVISION III MATCHUP — Redlands entered ranked No. 2 in Division III

Long Beach controlled this one from the opening quarter, leading 6-2 after eight minutes and 10-4 at halftime.

Marc Frigola Navarro scored 5 goals, Artur Diaz 4 and Corbin Stanley scored twice as 11 different Long Beach players scored. Long Beach finished with 20 goals, 10 assists and 13 steals.

Redlands scored 8 goals on 17 shots and recorded 2 assists. The official Long Beach recap does not provide a complete Redlands individual scoring/goalkeeper breakdown, so those numbers are not being guessed.

Long Beach drew 18 Redlands exclusions while being excluded 10 times itself.

The difference: depth and pressure. Long Beach generated 20 goals on only 28 shots and continued producing regardless of lineup combinations. (Long Beach State University Athletics)

No. 14 LMU 13, No. 11 Pepperdine 10

LMU won an important WCC opener by taking control immediately after halftime.

The Lions led 7-6 at the break before scoring the first three goals of the third quarter. That run became the separation Pepperdine couldn’t erase.

LMU: Nick Leung 3 goals, 1 assist; Gabrijel Burburan 3 goals; Caden Poulleau 2 goals, 2 assists; Nico Furneaux 2 goals; Mateo Obando 1 goal, 1 assist; Bence Barics and Soren Martin one goal each. Roman Saroyan distributed 3 assists, Eduardo Carraresi 2, Luka Dimic 1 and goalkeeper Pablo De Souza 1. LMU totaled 13 goals and 11 assists. De Souza made 9 saves.

Pepperdine: Hunter Danko 3 goals, 1 assist; Erik Ionescu 3 goals; Charles Warmington 2 goals, 2 assists; Cade Anderton and Brian Barnuevo one goal each. Max Burstein, Alex Piccin, Jackson Benners and Tyce di Pretoro added one assist each. Pepperdine totaled 10 goals and 7 assists. Max Smirnov made 13 saves.

LMU was charged with 10 exclusions to Pepperdine’s four.

The difference: LMU’s 4-1 third quarter. Pepperdine got an excellent 13-save performance from Smirnov, but LMU generated 36 shots, 11 assists and 10 steals and had too many different ways to create offense. (Loyola Marymount University Athletics)

No. 9 Princeton 15, Harvard 8

Harvard stayed within 7-5 at halftime before Princeton broke the game open after the break and carried an 11-6 advantage into the fourth.
Princeton: Otto Stothart 4 goals, Enrique Nuño 3, Tibi Cojocariu 2, Bence Kovács 2, with Ádám Peocz, Taylor Bell, Banos, Weichert and Sennett also scoring according to Princeton’s published recap. Kristóf Kovács made 12 saves.

Princeton’s official recap does not publish assists or Harvard’s complete individual offensive and goalkeeper statistics, so those figures are not being reconstructed from secondary sources.

The difference: defense after halftime. Princeton turned a competitive game into a comfortable win by controlling the third quarter, with Kovács’ 12-save performance anchoring the back end. (Princeton University Athletics)

No. 9 Princeton 20, MIT 14
MIT — Division III

Princeton completed its doubleheader sweep with 20 goals.

Otto Stothart scored 4, Tibi Cojocariu, Ádám Peocz and Henry Swart each scored 3, Taylor Bell scored twice, and LeSieur, Enrique Nuño, Andrew Tu, Joseph Hwang and Gavin Appeldorn added one each.

Princeton used two goalkeepers and got an extraordinary combined total: Pierre du Plessis 16 saves and Gus von Metzsch 9 saves.

The official Princeton recap does not provide assists or MIT’s complete individual scoring/goalkeeper statistics, so those figures remain unreported.

The difference: offensive depth. Princeton had four players score at least three and reached 20 despite MIT producing 14 of its own. (Princeton University Athletics)

No. 15 Navy 20, Mercyhurst 4

After a 1-1 start, Navy scored 12 unanswered goals and led 13-1 at halftime.

Navy: Aiden Berry, Declan Murphy and Hudson Parks each scored 3; JB Bergstedt, Connor Cashman and Austin Kahn scored twice; Maximus Arnold, Ryan Munch, Jack Pointner, Jack Rodoni and Erwin also scored as 11 Midshipmen found the net.

The official Navy recap does not publish complete assist totals or goalkeeper saves for either team, so those numbers are not being estimated.

The difference: Navy’s defensive pressure completely removed Mercyhurst from the game after the opening five-meter goal. The 12-0 run also allowed Navy to expand its rotation without losing control. (Naval Academy Athletics)

No. 19 Brown 16, LIU 10

LIU scored the first two goals. Brown answered with five straight and never gave the lead back.
Brown led 8-5 at halftime before Roland Csendes scored twice in less than a minute early in the third, stretching the advantage to 10-5.

Brown: Roland Csendes scored 6 goals and finished with nine points according to Brown’s recap. Dominik Balla scored twice, with Mac Berry, Hugo Molnar, Ramzi Megali and Jaxson Tierney among the other Brown scorers. Ethan Kittredge played all four quarters in goal.

Brown’s official recap does not publish a complete goals/assists table, Kittredge’s save total or LIU’s complete individual statistics, so those numbers are intentionally omitted.

The difference: Brown’s response. Going down 2-0 on the road didn’t change the Bears’ approach; they answered with five consecutive goals and controlled the game from there. (Brown University Athletics)

No. 20 Cal State Fullerton 20, La Verne 14
DIVISION III MATCHUP

Fullerton reached a season-high 20 goals, with Denes Dobi and Cade Zeilinger recording hat tricks. The Titans recovered after La Verne closed the opening quarter with four consecutive goals and gradually took control.

No. 20 Cal State Fullerton 14, Whittier 8
DIVISION III MATCHUP

Fullerton completed a 4-0 Gary Troyer Tournament weekend with the six-goal win over Whittier.

The official Fullerton site confirms both Saturday finals, but its detailed box-score pages were not reliably retrievable during this review. Complete individual assists, opponent scoring and goalkeeper saves are therefore not being guessed.

No. 20 Santa Clara — Alumni Game
EXHIBITION

Santa Clara’s Saturday schedule lists an Alumni Game at Sullivan Aquatic Center. This should not be treated as an NCAA varsity result or included in the team’s competitive record. (Santa Clara University)

No. 16 California Baptist / No. 20 Concordia Irvine Late Gary Troyer Games

California Baptist had Chapman and Biola scheduled Saturday, while Concordia Irvine had a second game against Cal Lutheran. As of this review, their official schedule pages still do not display verified final scores for those contests. They are therefore not being assigned results or statistics here. (Concordia University Irvine Athletics)

Biggest Takeaways

Stanford had the result of the day. The Cardinal didn’t just hand No. 1 UCLA its first loss—they scored 19 goals, including seven in the fourth quarter. UCLA was better on the extra man, but Stanford generated enough offense at even strength and from five meters to overcome it.

USC-Cal remains almost impossibly close. Both goalkeepers made 15 saves, the teams combined for 29 goals and the game required sudden death. USC’s ability to manufacture Nelson’s tying goal with less than a second left and Krstic’s winner was the difference between two extremely evenly matched teams.

UC Santa Barbara had the best two-win résumé of Saturday. The Gauchos beat No. 9 San Jose State in overtime and No. 20 Saint Mary’s later the same day. Luigi Canepa totaled six goals across the two games, Charlie Johnson scored six—including the overtime winner against SJSU—and Wyatt Pieretti delivered 13 saves in the upset.

LMU made an early WCC statement. No. 14 beating No. 11 Pepperdine matters, particularly with Pepperdine goalkeeper Max Smirnov making 13 saves. LMU overcame that with 11 assists, 10 steals and a decisive 4-1 third quarter.

Goalkeepers were everywhere Saturday. Charles Mills and Aran Pina each made 15 saves in USC-Cal, Wyatt Pieretti had 13 against San Jose State, Max Smirnov made 13 against LMU, Kristóf Kovács had 12 against Harvard and Bernardo Herzer stopped nine against UCLA.
And at the very top, Saturday changed the national picture.

No. 2 Stanford beat No. 1 UCLA head-to-head, while No. 3 USC survived No. 4 Cal.

Those results gave Sunday’s Stanford-USC and UCLA-Cal games even more weight—and will make the next CWPA No. 1 vote especially interesting.

Does anyone here find the moderating on WPX over zealous and designed to foist a specific world view?

Banned 3x for expressing opinions that buck the status quo. Is it just me or is there a right wing tendency to the posting...there is currently a raging debate where the majority wants to effectively ban foreigners from college level programs so that "they don't take spots away from REAL Americans".
