No matter the team. No matter the sport. We all have somebody to play for. đŸŽ—ïž This October, Princeton teams are coming together to help honor and show their support for those impacted by cancer. Led by the Princeton Student-Athlete Service Council (SASC), each of our student-athletes, coaches, and administrators were asked to fill in a card for the friends and family that they “PLAY FOR”, and leave their words of encouragement for those who are currently in the fight. Teams are now displaying their cards across campus and each of our athletic facilities as a symbol of strength and unity. Because together, we are all stronger in the fight against cancer. Two Princeton women’s hockey players pose in front of their locker room door which is decorated with cancer ribbons and cards reading “I PLAY FOR” in honor of Cancer Awareness month.

It has come to the league's attention that United States Naval Academy head coach/Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) Hall of Fame member Luis Nicolao is closing in on a historic milestone - 1,000 combined coaching wins during his time at both Princeton University and Navy. Nicolao - who now has 146 wins at Navy and 402 men's wins at Navy for a combined total of 548 victories - also posted 442 W's at Princeton in women's competition.  His combined total of 990 makes him the active wins leader for an individual who has coached both genders. Where does he stand all-time?  Only former University of Southern California men's and women's head coach Jovan Vavic (575 men, 571 women=1,146 total wins) tops him on the all-time leader board for coaches who have lead both men's and women's programs.  Current Stanford women's head coach John Tanner (681) leads the all-time women's victory leaderboard. In men's competition, Nicolao stands as the active leader in victories and fifth all-time behind former University of California-San Diego head coach Denny Harper (697), former Navy head coach/fellow CWPA Hall of Fame member Mike Schofield (630), former University of California-Irvine head coach Ted Newland (575) and Vavic (575).  Former University of California head coach Pete Cutino (519) is sixth. So when does NIcolao break 1,000 career wins?  Potentially this year as the No. 15-nationally ranked Midshipmen have 12 regular season games remaining and three contests at the Mid-Atlantic Water Polo Conference (MAWPC) Championship guaranteed in 2026 (and potentially one-to-three games at the National Collegiate Athletic Association Championship if Navy wins the MAWPC Championship).

The Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA), Mid-Atlantic Water Polo Conference (MAWPC) and Northeast Water Polo Conference (NWPC) wish all of the head and assistant coaches in the leagues – varsity and club, past and present – a Happy National Coaches Day (October 6). In 1972 ​President Richard Nixon signed a proclamation declaring October 6 as National Coaches Day. It states: “Coaches are highly qualified teachers—in highly specialized fields. But more than that, they are friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attitudes that will serve them all their lives.” To the leaders, mentors and friends who spend time coaching the game and helping shape the lives of the leagues’ student-athletes – Thanks.
