NCAA water polo rankings: Top 10 sees a shakeup

Stephen Dunn

The Week 11 CWPA rankings are out, and USC continues to hold the top spot.

The Week 11 CWPA rankings are out, and there was a shakeup in the top 10. Sana Barbara -- at one point was the No. 2 team in the country -- fell from the fourth spot and is now No. 7. UCSB fell to Pacific and Cal this past week, and Pepperdine, who also was fourth last week, came out on the short end against Long Beach State and USC.

Speaking of Long Beach State, they are the no. 6 team, and moved up due to that win over Pepperdine, plus a victory against Irvine.

The rest of the poll was fairly tame, with Navy moving up from the No. 19 spot to a tie at No. 17 with Mercyhurst.
