  • 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.

  • Volleyball National Collegiate Men’S
    Volleyball NATIONAL COLLEGIATE MEN’S 2009 Championship Highlights Career performance leads Anteaters to volleyball crown: UC Irvine’s Ryan Ammerman made his last match his most memorable one by turning in a career performance to lead the Anteaters to a five-set victory over Southern California in the National Collegiate Men’s Volleyball Championship match May 9 in Provo, Utah. Ammerman, the Anteaters’ setter, registered a career-high 13 total blocks, tied a career high with six kills and recorded 55 assists to help UC Irvine rally for a 26-30, 30-23, 26-30, 30-17, 15-12 victory. It is the program’s second national title in the last three seasons. As proficient as Ammerman was, the tournament’s most outstanding player wasn’t interested in hearing about his individual statistics. “I just wanted to win and that’s it,” said Ammerman, whose team went 27-5 this season. The Anteaters, who were swept by Southern California in the semifinals of the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation Tournament nine days before the NCAA finale, had a season-high 20.5 blocks to gain a measure of revenge against the Trojans (21-11). Southern California entered the final as a long shot, having gained a spot in the four-team national bracket by upsetting No. 4 Stanford, the top-ranked Anteaters and second-ranked Pepperdine in the MPSF tourney. The postseason run came after the Trojans lost four of their previous six regular-season matches. “The clock struck midnight on us,” said Trojans coach Bill Ferguson, whose team beat defending national champion Penn State in the NCAA semifinals.
