The Four-time champion United States, with Los Al grad Rachel Fattal again playing a key role, began the defense of its women’s water polo title with a 24-2 rout of South Africa at the world swimming championships on Sunday.
Prior to the match Fattal got a nice twitter shout out from USA teammate Maggie Steffens.
Keep an eye out for Rachel Fattal! She's a boss and let's just say we're damn lucky she's on @TeamUSA #FINABudapest2017 pic.twitter.com/ppQiOrwsl8
