WALNUT, Calif. — Ben Hallock won in high school in Southern California. He won in college at Stanford. He won as a professional at Pro Recco, one of the top water polo clubs in the world. Hallock has won everywhere he has played — except for the Olympics. And the 6-foot-6 center desperately wants to check that box this summer. Hallock says, "I'd throw every single medal away that I have now for a medal in Paris." The American captain is hoping to lead the U.S. men to the program's first podium finish since it won silver in 2008.
