The UCLA women's water polo team, ranked No. 1, secured its eighth NCAA title and the program’s 12th national championship with a 7–4 victory against the California Golden Bears in Berkeley on Sunday. This win completes the third undefeated season in the program's history, with a record of 26–0. The only other teams to achieve this feat were those of 2005 and 2008, both recording an impeccable 33–0.

Only four women’s water polo teams have had perfect runs to the NCAA championship. USC accomplished this twice, in 2004 and 2016. This recent victory marks UCLA's 123rd NCAA title overall.

Head coach Adam Wright, who has previously led the UCLA men’s water polo program to four NCAA titles, achieved this milestone for the first time with the women’s team.

On May 12, just a week prior to this victory, the men’s volleyball team secured UCLA’s 122nd NCAA championship.
