This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features Geena Urango, one of the OGs on the podcast and a member of the San Diego Smash of the inaugural AVP League. Geena has been one of the most successful defenders of this generation amongst those who play exclusively domestically, a decision we chat about at length on the podcast, as well as:
- How, at age 35, she continues her steady rise of improvement
- Her thoughts on the AVP League and what she thought of its debut stop in UCLA
- What the AVP can do from a marketing perspective to improve the attendance and overall awareness of the League
- Her goals as a beach volleyball player who has no designs on making an Olympic Games
And, per usual, much more!
