American Lady Water-Athletes Did The Naked Pool Shoot Well Before The Brits

Upon seeing Saturday's "British Olympic Hopefuls Strip For Cash" DUAN! post, USA Water Polo associate communications director Greg Mescall sent word that his American water babies had done a similar shoot for ESPN mag's body issue in October.

For whatever it is worth, the water polo team did not get paid to appear in the magazine which is an annual celebration of great athletic physique. They are currently ranked number one in the world and are winners of the last two World Championships.

He also sent n00dz to supplement his report, but you already know that. He's been thanked on your behalf.
