This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features the guarantors themselves: Trevor Crabb and Tri Bourne. Coming off one of the deepest slumps of their partnership, what did they do but guarantee a victory at AVP Fort Lauderdale -- a guarantee they backed up without so much as losing a set.
Oh, yes, we chatted about that, as well as:
- Why Trevor guaranteed a win after one of their worst matches, in Espinho, Portugal
- The coaching change, from Jose Loiola to Leandro Pinheiro, that impact them more than expected
- What actually happened in the scuffle between John Hyden and Taylor Crabb (and Taylor Sander)
- Why Crabb and Bourne seem to thrive on a sense of urgency -- the type created by, say, guaranteeing a win
ENJOY!
