Welcome to Season 2 of the SandyNoles Podcast, where we chat all things FSU Beach Volleyball. Our first episode is with assistant coach Travis Mewhirter and freshman Elena Lam, who plays beach volleyball with her own distinct style and is unapologetic about it.

On this episode, they chat about:

- How, somehow, being home schooled in high school and attending a massive university like Florida State isn't much different

- Her discipline, which has her measuring every morsel of food and waking up at 5 a.m.

- The singular reason she decided to come to Florida State: To win a National Championship

- How she doesn't want to model her game after anyone, but to develop her own unique style

This episode of SandyNoles features the full FSU Beach Volleyball coaching staff: Nick Lucena, Brooke Niles, and Travis Mewhirter, chatting all things NCAA Beach Volleyball and the 2024 season.

Welcome back to the SandyNoles Podcast, where players and coaches on the FSU Beach Volleyball team chat about all things Florida State beach volleyball. Today, Makenna Wolfe and Madi Trusty chat about the upcoming weekend at Cal Poly, a home tournament of sorts for Wolfe who wrestles with wondering: Where is home, truly? Is it in Tallahassee, Florida, where she has spent her last four years, or is it home in northern California, where she spent the first 18 years of her life?

Fun one with two close friends.

Enjoy!

Alexis Durish and Carra Sassack, the most dynamic of FSU Beach Volleyball duos, are back again, chatting life, ice-breakers, and a look-ahead at this weekend's Death Volley Invitational at LSU, where the 'Noles will play UCLA, Stanford, USC, and Long Beach State.

Welcome back to SandyNoles: An FSU Beach Volleyball Podcast. On this episode, we have Jordan Boulware and Paige Kalkhoff, a red shirt freshman and a fifth-year senior, respectively, who are, oddly enough given their age gap, the best of friends.

Or, in their words, Honeys.

It'll take you roughly five seconds to realize just how good of friends they are, as they laugh, giggle, knee-slap their way through defining all of the "brain rot" words of their generation for a very confused assistant coach, chat how their relationship blossomed on a trip to Hawaii, and even get into some more serious matters like childhood memories.

It's a fun ride. Enjoy and GO NOLES!
