    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.

    Cares About AcademicsFitness Is ImportantPoor Communication

    Christine Johnson was lucky to get this position after completing her embarrassing stint at a lower division Manchester College where she never had a winning season. Very defensive minded coach, her ability to create a string back line is undeniable, yet by focusing so much on defense rarely does her team generate any good attack or break lines. Focuses more on fitness than tactics. Interesting character, couldn’t ever figure her out. Puts on a “tough guy” persona…but is very insecure. Runs Professionally ran practices that make sense and flow. Has a good array of drills that promote competitiveness. Big on mentality. Why has she never won more than 5 games in a season as head coach?

    CoolCares About AcademicsDisorganizedFitness Is ImportantPoor Communication

    Expects players bond but she doesn’t give opportunities until it’s too late. Always playing a defensive game. Don’t even shoot from the back, only up the side cross in and a miss. Blames the players never her fault. No personality on the field. Plays favorites and brings in new players for those who aren’t her favorite.
