Episode Notes
Welcome back to SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, where we get off the sand for a second and delve into the world of NCAA Indoor Volleyball, chatting with Dan Fisher, the architect of the Pitt Volleyball dynasty that has won 7 ACC Championships in the past 9 years, made five straight final fours, and has won 82% of the matches since Fisher became the head coach.
How'd he do it?
Through high standards, and a culture that is constantly winning.
We're chatting:
- What makes Pitt Volleyball different, allowing it to win at such an exceptional rate
- How Dan Fisher has reframed failure, and how they practice winning, constantly
- Beach volleyball's influence on the Pitt Volleyball team
- How the city of Pittsburgh has come to adopt its volleyball team
