LEWISBURG, Pa. - The Gannon men’s water polo team opened the second day of the 2009 Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) Southern Division Championship Saturday morning with a 14-5 loss to No. 17 Princeton. Bucknell University served as the host school.

Gannon fell behind early and could not recover. The Golden Knights were out-scored 2-1 in the first quarter and 7-1 in the second frame. Princeton extended its lead to 14-2 with a 5-0 shutout in the third quarter, before Gannon scored the only three goals of the final stanza.
