Vancouver, B.C., native Megan McNamara has amassed 16 victories at the No. 1 spot in her first season in Westwood, the second-most on the team for No. 4 nationally-ranked UCLA. She recorded 14 of those wins with twin sister Nicole McNamara, who joined Megan and Bruins' classmate Zana Muno on the five-member Pac-12 All-Freshman Team.
