From SHAQ Website

Matt grew up in San Diego and attended Poway High School, and was a part of the first water polo club in San Diego. He then attended UCLA and was a part of two NCAA championship teams in 1995 and 1996, earning NCAA player of the year awards both years. After college he moved to Marin County and has coached water polo in the MCAL league for 17 years. Matt and Mark formed SHAQ in 2007.


Steve Carrera pulls up a chair for candid conversations in Off the Deck, a podcast that goes beyond the splash and stats of water polo. Each episode is built around a simple, compelling idea: listening to the people who live and breathe this demanding sport. You’ll hear from athletes, coaches, and other key figures as they share the unvarnished details of their journeys-the early morning practices, the pivotal games, the setbacks, and the triumphs that defined their paths. This isn't about generic advice or play-by-play analysis; it's about the personal narratives that reveal what it truly takes to build a life in the pool. The stories collected here explore the unique culture of the water polo community, highlighting the dedication, strategy, and resilience required to excel. Tune in for an intimate look at the human effort behind the competition, one conversation at a time. Through these dialogues, the podcast paints a comprehensive portrait of success in aquatic sports, straight from the source.
