BEIJING — Hungary knocked off the Netherlands, 11-9, today in a group B preliminary women's water polo match at Yingdong Natatorium in the opening match for both teams.

Former University of Hawaii water polo player Iefke Van Belkum logged 26 minutes for the Netherlands, missing the one shot she took.

Meike De Nooy, who will return to Manoa this year to finish her degree and coach the UH goalkeepers, did not play in goal for the Netherlands.
