We are just shy of 20 days before the 2022 Collegiate Beach season takes the sand (and yes, we are excited)! It was an exciting end to the 2021 re-crowning USC as the National Champion, but what we discovered is that other programs are rising in talent and will not go down without a fight!
One of those programs is the history making team in the CCSA, TCU-- a team that made it to Gulf Shores for the first time in program history in 2021. That Horned Frog team was lead by then-Freshman Phenoms (or current Sophomore Super Ballers), Dani Alvarez and Tania Moreno who played at the No. 1 spot for TCU. These Spanish National Team members are the inaugural guests on this episode with Charlie Ekstrom (Stanford Beach) and Rob Espero, to discuss the 2021 season, the last 7 months and what the Horned Frogs will look like in the 2022 season!
