SAN DIEGO - San Diego State water polo utility Taelor Moreno has been invited to the USA Water Polo Junior National Team Selection Camp. The Miami, Fla., native is one of 29 to receive an invitation to try out for the squad.
Moreno, who just completed her sophomore campaign in 2013, will attend the three-day training selection camp, June 15-17, in Southern California. Training will occur periodically in June, July and August and will culminate with the Junior World Championships in Volos, Greece, starting August 19.
This past season, Moreno played in 33 of 34 games and finished with 38 goals, 17 assists, 18 steals and 23 ejections drawn. Her 38 goals were tied for second-most on the team and her ejections drawn total was the fourth-highest among all Aztecs.
SDSU is coming off its eighth-straight year of 20 or more victories after posting a 23-11 record. The 23 wins are its most since 2009 when San Diego State turned in an identical record. The Aztecs were also ranked in the top-8 nationally the entire regular season, twice rose to as high as No. 6 and finished campaign ranked 10th.
