Los Angeles, CA (CSTV U-WIRE) -- RULON WINS CUTINO AWARD: Women's water polo player Kelly Rulon was given the Peter J. Cutino Award, the most prestigious award in collegiate water polo. The award is given to the outstanding female and male collegiate water polo players in the country.
Rulon scored 70 goals in 30 games, leading the Bruins to their third straight NCAA championship, and the school to its 100th overall NCAA team championship. Rulon's teams have won NCAA titles all four years she played, as she redshirted the 2004 season to play in the Summer Olympics in Athens.
Only two other UCLA women's water polo players have won the award: Natalie Golda (2005) and Coralie Simmons (2001).
