Not that hard to believe, I've seen it before. As GMCtrk mentioned, try pulling the plugs and see what you'll find, try and crank it over and see if water comes out the spark plug holes. If it still doesn't crank, put a socket on the crank bolt and try to turn the engine over by hand (with spark plugs removed). If it won't turn by hand, it's been hydrolocked and has a bent/broken rod or two.

Did the engine die mid puddle or did you make it through? If it died mid puddle i'd say hydro lock but if you made it through and you are trying to start it the day after it might be that you got water in the starter or solenoid.
