This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features Scott Davenport, the man who is arguably the most sought-out beach volleyball coach in America. Since stopping playing on the AVP Tour around 2006, Davenport has built a lengthy list of athletes on his roster, including Nick Lucena, Matt Fuerbringer, Casey Patterson, Theo Brunner, Chaim Schalk, Emily Stockman, Sarah Sponcil, Terese Cannon, Troy Field, Evan Cory, Megan Kraft, Zana Muno – shall the list go on?

In 2022, Davenport became the first coach in history to win the same AVP tournament – AVP Hermosa Beach – coaching a men’s and a women’s team when Sponcil and Cannon, and Schalk and Brunner, both claimed the title.

Action-packed podcast for you, ladies and gentlemen.
