Toni Rodriguez: An All-Time High Leading to An All-Time New Beginning

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features Toni Rodriguez, who finished the 2024 beach volleyball season on the highest of all high notes: winning the inaugural AVP League alongside MVP Geena Urango, as well as three straight medals of every color on the Beach Pro Tour with Molly Turner. Now, Rodriguez is gearing up for a 2025 season that will look decidedly different: competing with Urango in the League as a blocker while defending behind Kylie Deberg on the Beach Pro Tour. Big moves! Tri and Toni talk about that, as well as:

• What Toni’s fall successes were like, and how it all happened at once
• Why she’s deciding to make the move to defense
• The role of sports psychologists in her (and Tri’s) career ascent
• Her big goals for the 2025 season, including defending the AVP League title and looking at a berth into the 2025 World Championships

And, per usual, a whole lot more.

SHOOTS!
