This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features Chase Budinger and Miles Evans. Entering this Olympic qualifying period fifth on the USA Volleyball roster, Budinger and Evans sprinted up the ranks, punching their ticket to the Paris Olympic Games and becoming one of the most intriguing storylines in Paris. On this episode, we chat about:

• The importance of their first gold medal as a team at the Haikou Challenge of 2023
• Why a NORCECA qualifier this past Spring was the event they believe truly decided the Olympic race
• The media frenzy that has ensued, and how even Budinger, with his NBA background, hasn’t experienced anything like this
• Their mindset and strategy heading into Paris

And a whole lot more. Awesome episode with Budinger and Evans!
