Serbia’s national water polo team and the U.S.A. national water polo team will make waves in Riverside next week, taking each other on in the second of a four-game series as they prepare for Olympic trials later this year.
According to the Riverside Sports Commission, the two teams will begin their series on Tuesday in San Diego and meet again Thursday night at the Riverside Aquatics Complex on the campus of Riverside City College.
“Without a doubt, this will be a tremendously exciting game and one not to miss,” Commission spokeswoman Debbi Guthrie said. “Rarely does the opportunity come along to witness this level of world-class competition in our own backyard.”
After Riverside, the teams will move to Orange County on June 7 and complete their series on June 9 in Chicago.
