BRIDGEPORT, Pa. — The Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) releases the 2021 Men’s Collegiate Club Northwest Division schedule.
Comprised of Boise State University, Oregon State University, the University of Oregon, the University of Washington and Western Washington University, the division will contest its 23rd season as part of the CWPA. In the history of the division, Washington (1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2006, 2009, 2016), Oregon State (2003, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019) and Oregon (2004, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013) have combined to win all 22 previous Northwest crowns. The 2020 season was not contested due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Due to limited sites able to host, the division race is comprised of a 10-game regular season tournament at the Amazon Aquatic Center in Eugene, Ore., on Saturday-Sunday, October 23-24, prior to an eight-game championship tournament on Saturday-Sunday, October 30-31.
The Northwest Division champion earns an automatic berth to the 2021 Men’s National Collegiate Club Championship slated to be hosted by the University of Alabama at the Huntsville Aquatic Center in Huntsville, Ala., on Friday-Sunday, November 12-14. In addition, the team which finishes third in the division earns the opportunity to compete in the newly established National Invitational on Friday-Sunday, December 3-5, at a site to be determined against teams that claimed the top spot in the lower half of their divisions.
