Welcome back to another solo episode of SANDCAST, where Travis Mewhirter recaps a wild weekend, and previews a hectic one to come, with the NCAA Championships descending upon Gulf Shores again. Meanwhile, the AVP League had two more tickets punched, and the Volleyball World Beach Pro Tour is hereby renamed the Lucky Loser Tour.

Mewhirter chats about:

- How Kristen Nuss simply wills gold medals into existence sometimes

- James Shaw and Chaim Schalk demolishing folks to clinch their AVP League bid

- The wild run of Lexy Denaburg and Julia Scoles into the AVP League

- How the new Elite16 format can be changed for the better instead of being the Lucky Loser Tour

And, per usual, more
