Stocks to buy for the upcoming 2020 AVP season

Stocks to buy for the upcoming 2020 AVP season

The coronavirus may be decimating the global and American stock markets, but one place you won’t find its impact is the annual SANDCAST Beach Volleyball Stocks to Buy.

This week, as we did in 2019, Tri Bourne and I broke down the top up and coming prospects of the season as our stocks to buy this year. I’m only writing about 10 – five men, five women – so to find the rest, you can listen to our podcast, which also answered fan questions, discussed the new partnerships being formed, and talked a little college volley.

Men’s stocks to buy

Miles Partain

How good is Miles Partain? He already has his own emoji among the beach volleyball community. He's emoji good. You can always identify when Partain is at a practice, as any video of him playing will include the baby emoji, referring to him as “baby Miles,” whereas Miles Evans would be the not so baby Miles. Baby or not, the 18-year-old UCLA recruit’s fifth-place finish in Chicago was no fluke. He’s spent the off-season training with the USA Volleyball groups, and has been called up into similarly high-level practices when he isn’t.

Andy Benesh/Eric Beranek

By now, I’m sure you’ve seen the Beranekquake that’s gone viral on social media, the one where he takes a back shoot set from his new partner, Benesh, and pounds it somewhere to Mexico. Granted, there was no defense, and their only tournament to date ended with a second in Treasure Island to Raffe Paulis and Ricardo, but this is a young, up-and-coming team with loads of potential and, better yet, dedication. They have a coach and what appears to be an organized, productive off-season heading into what could be a breakout year for both.

Kyle Friend

Last year was Friend’s first as a defender, and it was also the best of his career. After relieving himself of blocking duties, he scooped up Duncan Budinger and qualified in five of seven tournaments, tying a career-high ninth in Austin. Like Partain, Friend has been a regular in the USAV training sessions, and with a year of defending under his belt, his ceiling is only getting higher. Whether he gets pulled up by a bigger blocker or must begin again in the qualifiers remains to be seen, but he'll be a regular in the main draw this year.

Dave Palm

Palm alas made his AVP breakthrough last season, a much anticipated one after winning five NVL events and making an additional seven finals in four seasons. He and Dylan Maarek, who’s also having a terrific off-season, qualified in Hermosa Beach, stunning Chaim Schalk and Jeremy Casebeer in the second round on stadium court. He’s already straight into AVP Huntington Beach after winning Big Shots in Atlantic City this past fall with JM Plummer, another notable to watch this season, so he’ll have a big stage at the beginning of the season.

Steve Roschitz/Pete Connole

Connole had only won two AVP qualifier matches prior to last season. Then came New York, when, as the 20 seed in the qualifier, Roschitz and Connole engineered upsets over Andy Benesh and Adam Roberts, Maddison and Riley McKibbin, and Kyle Radde and Brad Connors. So quick was their improvement that by the end of the season, it’s possible that none of those wins could be labeled as an upset. They were straight into Manhattan and qualified again in Chicago, making more main draws than Connole had previously won qualifier matches.

Other notables:

DR Vander Meer

John Schwengel

Tim Brewster

Branden Clemens

Kevin Villela

JM Plummer

Ben Vaught

Women’s stocks to buy

Kelly Reeves/Terese Cannon

I’m big on this team this year, in large part because I think a breakout has been due for Kelly Reeves for a few years and it seems the pieces are coming in place for it. In just four events together as partners, the two have already logged a third at the Manhattan Beach Open, where their only losses were to Alix Klineman and April Ross and Melissa Humana-Paredes and Sarah Pavan; a ninth in Hawai’i; and a silver medal at the Siem Reap two-star. That is a heck of a start to a partnership that has upside, youth, hunger, and a strong all-around skill set.

Corinne Quiggle/Falyn Fonoimoana

Putting too much weight in early results can be a dangerous thing to do sometimes. The honeymoon phase is a real thing. But sometimes they can also be promising indicators, and the two NORCECAs that Quiggle and Fonoimoana have played were won in nearly flawless fashion, with just a single set dropped, and that includes the qualifiers they needed to play as well. Heading into 2020, they’ll both benefit from a full season as professionals under their belt and an entire off-season of training together.

Geena Urango/Emily Hartong

If I had any money to bet – I don’t, because weddings are expensive – and there was someone to take my bet on a team this season this would be the one. Partly because a tumultuous year would have driven the price of the Urango-Hartong stock way down, and therefore the value has the potential to jump quite high, but also because this is just a legitimately really good team that can do loads of great things.

Urango’s been in multiple finals. She knows how to get it done. Hartong was still adjusting to the beach (and snow, and four-on-four) last year, and she still more than doubled her prize money from 2018. I don’t think they’re ready to win an AVP just yet, but it wouldn’t be a surprise to see them making a push to a Sunday here and there.

Traci Callahan

Want to know why I believe in Traci Callahan? Because Mykel Jenkins, Tri Bourne’s trainer, believes in Callahan, and he hardly believes in anybody. When he compliments someone, it’s a very real, genuine compliment, and he was enamored with Callahan’s work ethic. She spent her off-season working with Evie Matthews, and was rewarded with a fifth at the Siem Reap two-star with Crissy Jones, where they beat eventual gold medalists Sara Hughes and Lauren Fendrick. This is just the start for Callahan.

Crissy Jones

Speaking of Jones, she’s an easy one to peg for this list. Currently a graduate student at her alma mater, Cal Poly, Jones was one of the most delightful stories of the season in 2019, making one heck of an end-of-year push with Zana Muno (she’d be on here too, but I don’t know if they’re playing together, and Muno's stock is already awfully high). A third in Hermosa Beach was followed by three consecutive top-10 finishes, all of which preceded the aforementioned fifth place in Cambodia.

Other notables:

Delaney Mewhirter/Katie Spieler

Megan Rice

Katie Hogan

Mackenzie Ponnet

Zana Muno

Beach Volleyball Mailbag: What’s up with the AVP’s streaming? Can anyone stop Benesh and Partain? Is Klineman coming back?

What’s up with the AVP’s streaming? Is Alix Klineman making a run at the Olympics? Are Kelly Cheng and Sara Hughes on a slump? (if so, I’d like to slump like them).

As Savvy says on the podcast, “we have no control,” but we did have fun fielding and answering your questions! Including: A lot of fans have complained about streaming matches this year. What do the athletes think? Do we know any details about the AVP Championships? Can anybody stop Andy Benesh and Miles Partain? Can Alix Klineman still make a run at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games? And a wholeeeee lot more! ENJOY! *** Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter have a NEW BOOK! Playbook of Champions: The habits, routines, and stories of Olympians, Champions, and world-class athletes.

Joe Worsley, Gage Worsley, and the explosion of Out of System Volleyball

Joe Worsley, Gage Worsley, and the explosion of Out of System Volleyball

Out of System Volleyball is one of the fastest-rising, most viral digital media brands in the volleyball space. Joe Worsley and Gage Worsley charged onto the volleyball media scene in style, winning the 2020 Waupaca Boatride two weeks after launching Out of System – and just hours after learning how autofocus worked on their cameras. Since, they’ve exploded, adding all-world setter Micah Ma’a to the team. When it is the Worsleys and Ma’a together, they have yet to drop a single set in grass volleyball. Not one set! Meanwhile, their YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram pages are all taking off, as is their merchandise, which sells out in minutes. It’s been a while since we caught up with the Out of System boys, and we chatted about all sorts of stuff on SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, including: How they have built the Out of System brand into the sensation that it has become How hilarious it is when people learn that Joe and Gage are actually very good at volleyball, and not just some clowns goofing off with butt digs and social media stunts Why they’ve decided not to compete for spots on the USA National Team, choosing instead to build Out of System Why the best grass team in the country – if not the world – is not allowed to play the Pottstown Rumble. The story is amazing. And so, so, so much more, in this laugh out loud episode. ENJOY! *** Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter have a NEW BOOK!

Brooke Niles: Building Florida State’s beach volleyball powerhouse as ”a family that works hard”

Brooke Niles is the longtime beach volleyball coach at Florida State University, heading into her ninth year at the helm. She’s also one of the most successful coaches in NCAA Beach Volleyball history, taking the Seminoles to the NCAA Championship every single year it has existed, something no coach in the country can claim. She’s helped produce professionals such as AVP champions in Jace Pardon, Macy Jerger, and Alaina Chacon, as well as AVP mainstays in Katie Horton, Brook Bauer, and Maddie Anderson, among others. Alongside her husband, Nick Lucena, the assistant coach, Niles has helped build FSU beach volleyball into a powerhouse on the foundation of “a family that works hard.” We chat all about that on SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, as well as: How crazy NCAA Beach Volleyball National Championships have gotten with the single elimination format How Nick Lucena, a Hall of Fame player, is already one of the best coaches in the country Getting hired at just 34 years old and learning on the fly What it will take for FSU to finally win the elusive NCAA Championship And so much more.

Road to Paris No. 10: Bend the Knee to Mel and Brandie -- the real Queens of Canada

Melissa Humana-Paredes and Brandie Wilkerson should be crowned the real queens of Canada after their GOLD MEDAL at home in the Montreal Elite16. They were phenomenal all weekend long, surviving one three-setter after another – against Kelly Cheng and Sara Hughes, Kristen Nuss and Taryn Kloth, Xinyi Xia and Chen Xue, Betsi Flint and Julia Scoles – to win their second gold of the season. On this episode of The Road to Paris, where Travis Mewhirter breaks down the beach volleyball Olympic race, we cover that, as well as: How Betsi Flint and Julia Scoles jumped up to No. 7 in the world in the Olympic race The incredible and budding rivalry of Miles Partain and Andy Benesh, and Anders Mol and Christian Sorum The rise of Xinyi Xia and Chen Xue, who are quickly becoming an elite team Adrian Carambula and Alex Ranghieri extending their lead in the Italian race (and entertaining us all while doing so) A huge shoutout to Montreal for delivering an awesome event!

JD Hamilton: The remarkable story of an AVP dream eight years in the making

JD Hamilton has had one of the most extraordinary journeys onto the AVP Tour of anyone who has qualified in recent memory. Long one of the nation’s top grassroots players, winning every kind of tournament in any sort of format in any state or city or town you can imagine, one major feat eluded Hamilton: Qualifying on the AVP Tour. In Virginia Beach with Travis Mewhirter, he alas did it, qualifying for the Hermosa Beach Pro Series. We recorded this episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, before Hermosa, so some of this may seem outdated, but we actually think it’s a sweet look back at his mindset before the event. We chatted about that, as well as: What these last eight years of trying and failing and trying and failing have been like The sweet moment when he alas qualified in Virginia His road dog summer of 2017 with Christian Honer, when he made the final round of the qualifier over and over and over again – yet never qualified Hunting and fishing and all manner of amazing outdoorsy things And goodness, so much more.

Road to Paris, Alaska Special: FOREVER TREVOR

This is a special edition of the Road to Paris, where Travis Mewhirter breaks down the Olympic beach volleyball race to the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. Mewhirter is in Ketchikan, Alaska with the Knudsen fam, catching salmon and eating nothing but salmon. He made a deal with himself: He’d only do a Road to Paris if an American team won a gold medal at the Volleyball World Espinho Challenge…which is exactly what Trevor Crabb and Theo Brunner did! So Mewhirter did what he always does, breaking down: How Trevor and Theo just helped the USA do something it hasn’t accomplished in 9 years Brazilians Evandro Goncalves and Arthur Mariano jumping up to No. 2 in the world Austrians Alex Horst and Julian Horl continue to surprise with their silver medal A full Brazilian sweep of the podium on the women’s side – but why Mewhirter still isn’t buying into the majority of the Brazilian federation And a whole lot more.

How Scott Davenport became the most sought-out volleyball coach in America

How Scott Davenport became the most sought-out volleyball coach in America

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? You get the point. 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. He’s a medal-winning machine, that guy. We chatted all about his athletes, as well as: His circuitous journey from Rochester, New York – hometown of Terese Cannon – to becoming a beach volleyball coach in Southern California How training with Karch Kiraly shifted his coaching mindset How biomechanics and data are the bedrock of his coaching What we can learn from men such as Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant And so, so much more. Action-packed podcast for you, ladies and gentlemen. SHOOTS! *** Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter have a NEW BOOK!
