This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features Hector Gutierrez, the head coach of the TCU Beach Volleyball team who recently won the first NCAA Championship outside of California.

We chat a whole lot about that win, as well as:

- How he was able to build a program around Daniela Alvarez and Tania Moreno

- How he was able to lure Sarah Sponcil as his new assistant coach

- What it was like, winning his first NCAA Championship, and the first outside of California

- Why Gulf Shores presented more pressure than the Olympic Games (no joke)

SUCH A FUN ONE with Hector. Love this guy

SHOOTS!
