Welcome back to SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, where we have, at the Florida State Beach Volleyball courts, second-year professional Maddie Anderson. We've been trying to get Maddie on the pod for some time, and Travis even coached her and Brook Bauer briefly at the Volleyball World Beach Pro Tour Hamburg Elite a year ago, but finally, we made it work, and we chat about:

• How Maddie made the transition from NCAA to professional beach volleyball so well
• Her new partnership with Alaina Chacon
• Why living in California to become a professional volleyball player is no longer a necessity, and why she's doing it in Florida
• How she almost lost her spark and love for volleyball, but reclaimed it and is now all in

And much more! Fun one with Mads.
