  • FEBRUARY 2016 Published by the Outrigger Canoe Club for Members and Guests at Home and Abroad OCC Spikers Succeeding on the Pro Circuit
    FEBRUARY 2016 Published by the Outrigger Canoe Club for Members and Guests at Home and Abroad OCC Spikers Succeeding on the Pro Circuit By Marilyn Kali Three Outrigger Canoe Club volleyball players are currently ranked in the top 14 pro sand volleyball players in the United States, and three more have made it to the top 125 in their first year as pros. The young men, who all learned to set, dig, spike and serve on the Baby Court, have played together most of their lives. Tri Bourne, currently ranked sixth in the U.S., won the AVP Championship in 2015 with his partner John Hyden. Trevor Crabb is ranked in 12th place, and his brother and pro partner Taylor finished the season in 14th place. After playing on the U.S. National Team (indoor) for two years, Brad Lawson turned to sand volleyball in 2015 and is ranked in 85th place. The bearded brothers McKibbin, Maddison and Riley, are also enjoying success in the AVP. Riley is 27, while Tri, Trevor and Brad are all 26, Maddison 25 and Taylor 23. Three of their OCC contemporaries are currently on the U.S. National Volleyball (indoor) team: Kawika Shoji (28), Erik Shoji (26) and Micah Christenson (22), and hoping to make the U.S. team for the Rio Olympics this year. Tri Bourne hammering a return. Tri was on the 2015 U.S. National Beach Volleyball team, and with Hyden is currently the number one team in the U.S. FIVB Rookie of the Year in 2014, winning the FIVB Berlin Grand and aiming for the Rio Olympics as well.

Overhead, the Ukrainian flag gently flapped in the humid Atlanta night, perched atop the stadium along with the colors of 196 other nations competing in the XXVI Summer Olympiad. The Summer Olympic Games were probably the last major international forum in which Ukraine had not yet participated as a separate nation. That is now history. The team had waited in adjoining Atlanta Fulton County Stadium with the other 10,624 competitors for more than an hour and a half as 182 of a total of 197 squads debuted before it. Pole vaulter Sergey Bubka carried the blue-and-yel- low banner at the head of the delegation (the 14th largest in size), an honor generally given to the member of an Olympic team who is highly respected or has extraordinary achievements to his credit. Mr. Bubka received the distinction on both counts, explained National Olympic Committee member Valeriy Besmertnyi. “Today he is the greatest athlete in Ukraine,” said Mr.
