Marko Pintaric set a lofty target for his first NCAA tournament as USC’s water polo coach. Pepperdine, playing in the NCAA tournament for the first time in more than two decades, also won its quarterfinal Thursday, beating UC Davis 15-12. Advertisement“For me personally it’s amazing because it’s my last time ever playing water polo,” Maier said. Davis scored just three goals in 12 power-play tries. Senior Chris Dilworth finished with six goals and an assist while sophomore Balazs Kosa scored four times and helped on two others for Pepperdine.
