Austin Hwang '18, Men's Water Polo
Austin Hwang helped the Bears achieve a stretch of tremendous team success, including winning the 2014 Collegiate Water Polo Association championship.

Hwang played as part of a team that won three consecutive regular season conference championships – claiming the NCWPA Northern Division regular season titles in 2014 and 2015 prior to winning the inaugural NWPC regular season title in 2016. The Bears also captured the CWPA Northern Division tournament titles in 2014 and 2015. As a player, Hwang totaled 53 goals, 35 assists, 88 points, and 60 steals over his career, including 27 goals, eight assists, 35 points, and 26 steals as a senior in 2017.
