AVP/FIVB professional athlete and 2x National Collegiate Beach Champion at USC Kelly Claes joins Rob Espero on The Viral Volley Podcast this week.
Kelly reflects on her High School career, potentially going to Long Beach St. for indoor and committing to Beach Volleyball with Sara Hughes. Her time as a Trojan saw Kelly write the history books for USC Beach Volleyball as she saw success at the collegiate level, but early success at the professional level.
We then venture into her partnerships, winning, and her singing career with Sarah Sponcil-- who according to Kelly, "...is tone deaf." Their unique musical gifting landed them as the current-FIVB Beach Team of the Week!
