Manhattan Beach AVP is finally here!

The back has healed and my partner, Derek Sorensen, and I had a good showing last weekend in Santa Monica at the Corona Wide Open tournament where we took a 9th place with a 3-2 record. We both pretty much took the week off to rest up for the Manhattan Beach AVP Qualifier tomorrow.

We are the #15 seed in the qualification tournament and will have to win two matches to make it into the main draw. As mentioned in this blog, I’m playing beach volleyball competitively again because I love playing on the big stage and I’d like to be able to say that I played professionally on the AVP on the new short court as well as the old-school big court.

Wish me luck as I battle younger and just as hungry as me competition. There are no easy days and I expect to be fully tested in order to receive my prize…it’s always more fulfilling that way anyway. Let’s do this!!!!
