MONTEREY PARK, Calif. – The dominance of the Pacific Collegiate Swim Conference will last one more year for the Pepperdine women's swim and dive program as the Waves rolled to their second consecutive PCSC team title on Saturday night at Swim Stadium on the campus of East Los Angeles College.

It was a complete performance from start to finish for the Waves, who won the event by more than 400 points over second place Azusa Pacific.

In total, Pepperdine set eight new school records, had 40 All-PCSC first team performances and won 10 PCSC event championships.

The Waves racked up the individual awards as well. For the third consecutive season, head coach Ellie Monobe was named the coach of the meet, while diving coach Monique Demaisip was named diving coach of the meet. After first and second place finishes in both diving competitions, Amanda Wong (Santa Ana, Calif./Foothill HS) was named the diver of the meet.

Charli Sunahara (Chino, Calif./Ruben S. Ayala HS) had 91 individual points over the course of the championship meet, good for third overall.

This is the second overall team title for the Waves in program history as a member of the PCSC.
