Develops Team Beyond The Field

My experience playing under Warshaw was extremely frustrating due to the fact that he simply does not coach. I do not believe I have bettered in any way as a player during my time at CSUN, and he focuses more on having us do swim sets than working on actual water polo. There is little structure, and perhaps the most frustrating thing about it all is the fact that there is so much wasted talent on the team. Favoritism is rampant, and swim set times determine your playing time, not your actual abilities as a water polo player. He is not a bad person, he is a caring and compassionate person when it comes to his players, so come too CSUN if you’re in the mood for a chill, most likely disappointing, collegiate career.

Coach Warshaw joined the program and really hasn't improved it much during his tenure. CSUN hasn't won any conference game during his time (5 years). Player development is basically awful and the players mostly resent him. A few years back, the team revolted and players went directly to the AD and it looked like he was gone, but no change was made. He figured out that loading CSUN's schedule with Div III teams made his schedule look better, although this seemed to backfire in 2022 as they struggled against a number of these smaller teams. His assistant coaches were much better and would have been a good choice to replace him.
