    • MET-Rx UCLA Student-Athlete of the Week

    Junior Sean Kern (Honolulu, HI/Punahou School) of the men's water polo team was selected the MET-Rx UCLA Student-Athlete of the Week for the week of Sept. 20-26.

    Kern, a two-time All-American, scored the game-winning goal with just 22 seconds remaining in regulation to give the third-ranked Bruins a 6-5 upset victory over previously unbeaten and top-ranked Stanford on Saturday, Sept. 25. Kern scored another crucial goal in the match to pull the Bruins to within one, 3-2, with one second to play in the third quarter. His first goal put UCLA in a position to rally for the come-from-behind MPSF win. He also scored a pair of goals in the 11-9 victory over Cal on Sunday, Sept. 26. He helped seal the Bruin win with a goal with 1:39 left in the game.

    Kern is the second consecutive water polo player to earn the MET-Rx/UCLA Student-Athlete of the Week, following Matt Armato's honor last week. Kern holds a 3.25 GPA in History.
