SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter

Ian Capp, And The Rise of Men's College Beach Volleyball


Listen Later

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features Ian Capp, the head coach of the MEN’S BEACH VOLLEYBALL TEAM at Stevenson University in, of all places, northern Maryland. Yes, we put men’s beach volleyball in all caps --  no pun intended – because most people don’t even know men’s beach volleyball exists at the collegiate level. But it does! Sort of. It’s an AVCA sport with a legitimate National Championship, and Capp won Stevenson’s first National Championship this fall, upsetting powerhouse Webber in the finals in Huntsville. We chat all about that, and a whole lot more, including:

  • Why in the world did the Athletics Department at Stevenson University, a small school in northern Maryland, launch a men’s beach volleyball program?
  • How Ian Capp stumbled into the position as the head coach at Stevenson
  • What it meant to win that National Championship this fall
  • How he attempts to recruit young men to play beach volleyball for a DIII program in Maryland
  • And so, so, so much more. What an episode this is!
