avery aquatic center Home of cHamPionS

if Stanford athletics is recognized as “Home of Champions,” then one can argue the most prolific room in the house is the avery aquatic Center. Since opening in its current form in 2001, the magnificent facility has been home to five nCaa team champions, 53 individual nCaa titles, 17 Pac-12/Pac-10 Conference team champions, 173 individual Pac-12/Pac-10 titles, six MPSF team titles, four U.S. Collegiate team champs, 20 U.S. Collegiate individual titles and 49 Stanford Olympians (through the 2012 Games) in the sports of men’s and women’s water polo, men’s and women’s swimming and diving and synchronized swimming.

the recently rebuilt and remodeled avery aquatic Center is the home of all Stanford aquatic teams, and widely considered to be the finest outdoor swimming and diving facility in the United States and perhaps the world.

initially christened the deGuerre Pool Complex after Dorothy and Sidney deGuerre, the original facility was completed in 1972. in May 1999, an extensive renovation and expansion began that would ensure a world-class home for Stanford aquatics well into the future. Behind these efforts were the generosity and passion for water sports of Burt and Marion “Pete” avery and their family.

as it stands today, avery aquatic Center features four separate pools: the avery Competition Pool, the Maas Diving Center, the Belardi Pool and the Baker Pool. the main attraction is the Competition Pool, which can hold up to 2,530 spectators in a facility designed to host all of Stanford’s water polo, swimming, and synchronized swimming events. One of the fastest pools in the nation, the Competition Pool is 37 meters long and 20 meters wide. it tapers from 11-14 feet deep and features dual one-meter and three-meter Maxiflex springboards on the south end.

the avery Stadium Pool also features a scoreboard on the north end, installed and built by Daktronics.

Belardi Pool and Baker Pool stand as a pair of top-rate training pools which offer Stanford student-athletes and coaches tremendous flexibility when designing training programs. the Belardi Pool is 50 meters long, 25 meters wide and tapers to a depth of 11 feet in the center, while the Baker Pool is also 50 meters long, but 25 yards wide and with a varying depth of 4.5-5.5 feet.

the Sandy Foundation team Room (men’s) is located on the east side of the pool deck. the Harold a. Miller team Room (women’s) is located on the west side of the deck level. in 2000, two additional team locker rooms were completed: the Men’s timkin team Room and the Women’s team Room.

Construction began in 2007 on the avery Video Center, which added 2,000 square feet to the existing avery aquatic Center. at a cost of $1.4 million, the avery Video Center provides a meeting facility for all aquatic sports programs, as well as state-of-the-art video equipment for game-planning and scouting purposes.

the avery aquatic Center has served as host of many conference and national championships. the facility has hosted the national Collegiate Men’s Water Polo Championship three times (2004, 2007 and 2008) and twice hosted the MPSF Men’s Water Polo tournament (2004, 2010).

the first-ever national Collegiate Women’s Water Polo Championship was held at avery aquatic Center in May of 2001, and the facility has hosted the women’s championship twice more, in 2004 and 2008. avery hosted the women’s MPSF Championship in 2003 and 2012.

On July 10, 2008, avery Stadium was the site of the finale of the “Blastoff 2 Beijing” tour that featured a five-game series between the women’s water polo teams of the United States and australia. the United States captured a 7-5 victory in that contest in front of a standing room-only crowd of 2,926 fans, the largest recorded crowd to ever witness a women’s water polo contest on american soil.

Stanford Women’S Water Polo at tHe olymPicS


Jessica Steffens2008 olympian

Alison Gregorka2008 olympian

Brenda VillaThree-time olympian

in the relatively short history of Olympic women’s water polo, Stanford alumnae have played a significant role in the fortunes of the United States Olympic team since the first women’s tournament at the 2000 Sydney Games. Over the four women’s Olympic tournaments since 2000, Stanford boasts nine of its alumnae combining to make a total of 14 appearances for team USa at the Olympics.

Five Cardinal alumnae, Brenda Villa ’03, Jessica Steffens ’10, Melissa Seidemann ’09, annika Dries ’14 and Maggie Steffens ’16 paced the U.S. to its first Olympic Gold Medal at the 2012 london Games, with Maggie Steffens being named the tournament MVP after leading all players with 21 goals, including five in the Gold Medal Final win over Spain.

Villa is the way as the only Cardinal player of that group to appear in all four Olympic tournaments. Villa, who served as the U.S. captain at the 2008 Beijing Games as well as in london, helped lead the U.S. to silver medals in Sydney and Beijing and a bronze medal at athens in 2004 before finally attaining gold in 2012.

Ellen Estes ’02 and Jessica Steffens ’10 are the only other two-time Olympians among the group. Estes donned the USa cap at the 2000 and 2004 Games, earning a silver and a bronze medal, respectively, while Steffens earned silver in Beijing in 2008 and gold in london in 2012.

Margie Dingeldein ’02 and Jackie Frank ’03 were also a part of the bronze medal-winning U.S. team in athens, as Stanford boasted four members of that squad, the most the school has had on any one Olympic women’s water polo team.

alison Gregorka ’07 was part of the silver medal-winning U.S. squad in Beijing alongside Villa and Steffens.

the nine Stanford Olympic alumnae have helped the United States become the only nation to medal in all four Olympic women’s water polo tournaments.

Stanford’S cHamPionSHiP Water Polo tradition

Tradition Of Excellence

Stanford women’s water polo has earned itself a spot amongst the elite programs in the nation, laying claim to national championships in 2002, 2011 and 2012, and the distinction of being the only team to qualify for every nCaa Championship since the tournament’s inception in 2001.

Stanford has reached the nCaa Championship final seven times in those 12 appearances. the Cardinal has captured three national championships (2002, 2011, 2012), finished second five times, and finished third four times.

Since 1996, Stanford has also captured four MPSF tournament titles (2000, ’01, ’03 and ’06). the program has also racked up an impressive 441-77 (.851) record over that time.

also in that time span, Stanford student-athletes have collected 81 all-america honors as well as 85 selections to the various all-MPSF teams. On four occasions a Stanford student-athlete has taken home player of the year honors, as Brenda Villa earned the honor in 2001, Jackie Frank claimed the award two consecutive years (2002-03) and annika Dries was honored in 2011. Villa (2002), Frank (2003), Dries (2011) and Kiley neushul (2012) have each also claimed the prestigious Peter J. Cutino award, presented annually by the Olympic Club to the country’s top female collegiate player. Six additional Cardinal alumnae have been finalists for the award as well.

Brenda Villa (’03) remains the only Cardinal student-athlete to have earned first-team all-america honors in each of her seasons at Stanford (2001-03).

But it has not only been the classroom where the Cardinal has excelled, as the program has had 117 national all-academic selections and 112 MPSF all-academic nods since 1998.

nine Stanford alumnae have also had the honor of representing Stanford at the Olympic Games since women’s water polo was added to the Games in 2000. at the 2012 london Games, Villa, Jessica Steffens, annika Dries, Melissa Seidemann and Maggie Steffens paced the United States to its first Olympic Gold Medal, with Maggie Steffens being named MVP after scoring a tournament-best 21 goals.

Villa is the only Cardinal alumna to have been on the U.S. team for all four tournaments, earning a gold medal (2012), two silver medals (2000 and ’08) and a bronze medal (2004).

Ellen Estes, a member of the U.S. teams at the 2000 Sydney Games and the 2004 athens Games, and Jessica Steffens, who made her first Olympic appearance at the 2008 Beijing Games, are Stanford’s two-time Olympians. Margie Dingeldein (2004), Jackie Frank (2004) and alison Gregorka (2008) have all made an appearance on team USa.

thanks in part to the play and leadership from this group of nine Stanford alumnae, the U.S. holds the distinction of being the only nation to medal in all four of the Olympic women’s water polo tournaments.
