Joe and Gage Worsley: 'Just figure out the best way to win'

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, takes a little turn off the beach and onto the grass. Two weekends ago, the legendary and annual Waupaca Boatride, known as the U.S. Open of grass volleyball, was held, and two brothers by the name of Joe and Gage Worsley took over, becoming the Cinderellas of the Boatride.
Joe, who now sets in Germany, was one of the best setters in the United States while he competed for Hawai'i. Gage still has one more season at Hawai'i as a libero, and he proved that, yes, liberos can play offense too.
On this episode of SANDCAST, we discuss
- Joe and Gage's absurd, undefeated run through the best grass volleyball tournament in the world
- Grabbing a drunk sub to finish their semifinals and finals after their middle, Dalton Solbrig, went down with an ankle injury
- Joe and Gage's relationship, and how when they're fighting, it's actually a good thing
- Joe's decision to commit to Hawai'i, before the program had returned to national prominence, over UCLA, Ohio State, and Pepperdine
- Joe's difficult path to becoming one of the best setters in the country
- How much fun grass volleyball is, and the creativity required
