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.

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.

’The Brazilian Way’ of beach volleyball, with Leandro Pinheiro and Dan Waineraich

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, is an absolute blast, as we brought in a pair of our favorite Brazilians, Leandro Pinheiro (the VolleyballMag Coach of the Year) and Dan Waineraich, the man who led Melissa Humana-Paredes and Brandie Wilkerson to the Chicago finals. Brazilian coaches have become all the rage in California, and the world, really, as every Olympic podium has been influenced by a Brazilian coach since the inaugural Games in 1996 (two Brazilians made the finals for the women). We talked all about the Brazilian influence on the game, as well as: How so many Brazilian coaches – Jose Loiola, Marcio Sicoli, Fiapo, Leandro, Arthur Carvalho, Marcos Miranda, Gustavo Rocha, Pompilio Mercadante, etc. – ended up in California’s South Bay What the Brazilian Way of beach volleyball entails, and why it’s so unique The Brazilian community in California P1440’s huge influence on the coaching landscape of beach volleyball in America And, as always, a whole lot more.

Phil Dalhausser, and The Legend of the Thin Beast

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter features Phil Dalhausser, one of the greatest – and some would say, THE greatest – American players of all-time. Since he and Todd Rogers won the Olympic gold medal in 2008 in Beijing, Dalhausser has been the most dominant blocker in the United States, and remains that way. We chatted all about Dalhausser’s storied career, as well as: His wild experience in the Tokyo Olympics How drastically the World Tour has changed since he made his debut in 2006 The regrets his has on his career as a player, and the untold potential he and Sean Rosenthal could have had together What his future looks like, both as a player and a budding businessman And so, so, so much more. This is honestly one of the best episodes we’ve ever had on SANDCAST, as Phil completely opens up in a remarkably honest, funny, and reflective two hours. ENJOY! *** NEW BOOK ALERT!!!

FIVE YEARS OF SANDCAST: 261 episodes in a row, 261 more to come

Last week marked FIVE STRAIGHT YEARS OF SANDCAST! In five years, somehow, Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter haven't missed a single episode. So much has happened: - Travis made his first AVP main draw (then a bunch of international medals) - Tri battled an autoimmune disease...then became an Olympian...then a two-time Manhattan Beach Open champion - Tri had a kid, Naia Bourne, who makes many appearances on this episode - Travis got married to Delaney Knudsen, who has since won a bunch of big time matches and tournaments, including the USA Volleyball Queen of the Beach - Gabby Bourne produced her own movie, and is soon appearing in one with Ben Affleck and Matt Damon (!!!) - Our numbers have exploded, growing, on average, 30 percent per year - The NVL came and went - p1440 came and went - Volleyball World became a thing - The AVP was bought by Bally's - And a whole, whole lot more. We just got the full family together on this one and reflected on five years of podcasting, and the wild and surreal life changes that have come with it. Thank you all SO MUCH for being part of this wonderful journey. Cheers to five years, and cheers to five more SHOOTS! *** NEW BOOK ALERT!!!

Tim Brewster, the Chinese Bamboo Tree of the AVP

Tim Brewster, the Chinese Bamboo Tree of the AVP

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter features Tim Brewster, a breakout star on the AVP this season who had career-highs in so many categories in 2022 that it’s difficult to count. For starters, he made his first main draw, won his first international medal (then added two more, and will likely add at least one more before the year is out), won his first AVP match, then another…and another…and, well, he won a whole lot of them. We talked all about Brewster’s huge season, as well as: The work he has put in over these last five years, all in the name of one day hoping it would work out The lessons he learned from April Ross How he and Kyle Friend became such a perfect meld on the court The magic of working with Jose Loiola for five years, and why he was able to have such a huge season And, as always, so much more.

Molly Turner, taking the hard road in 2022: ’Let’s see if you can do it.’

This week’s episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features Molly Turner, one of the toughest, grittiest, go-get-after-it players on Tour. She had a choice this year: To play the points game and scramble around just to be directly into the main draw, or play the game to win, in which she’d begin in the qualifiers but give herself the highest ceiling possible. The result? A career-high in every single category in 2022. We chatted all about her gold medals, her wins in Seaside and Laguna, and a whole lot more, including: This season, in which she traveled more than she ever has, hitting the Volleyball World Beach Pro Tour for the first time Why she decided to begin competing internationally, and how addicting – and challenging -- the road can be Why there should be more trash talking in women’s beach volleyball How to channel the proper emotions on the beach volleyball court And, as always, a whole lot more.

Theo Brunner, America’s top blocker, is coming into his own

This week’s episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features the man who is not only the most formidable blocker in the United States, but also the guy who is quietly the funniest guy on the AVP Tour: Theo Brunner. At 37 years old, Brunner is finally coming into his own, on and off the court: Creating a hysterical Instagram persona, delivering hilariously candid interviews for Volleyball World, while also putting together his best AVP season to date with Chaim Schalk. We chatted – and laughed – a lot on this one, covering: How he and Chaim Schalk have developed such perfect team chemistry Why he is playing what he thinks is the best beach volleyball of his career Who’s better: Phil Dalhausser in his prime, or Anders Mol right now? His fourth-place finish at World Champs, and how he and Schalk can build on it And, as always, much, much more! ENJOY! *** NEW BOOK ALERT!!!

Season-ending Mailbag: How was Phoenix? Olympic partnerships; Maximizing the off-season

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, is our semi-monthly, always-popular edition of our mailbag, where we take your fan questions and answer them alongside UCLA’s finest, and now one of USA Volleyball’s brightest, Savvy Simo. We’re calling this the season-ending mailbag, although that might be a bit of a misnomer, as the season isn’t technically over, with two more AVPs to go, in Huntington Beach and Central Florida. But, the Phoenix Championships have ended, so it’s sort of the end of what we consider the 2022 season. We chatted about quite a bit, including: What are the partnerships looking like for Paris 2024? How was the AVP Phoenix Gold Series Championships? How to maximize your off-season Who surprised us the most this season? ENJOY! *** NEW BOOK ALERT!!!
