Holly McPeak

Holly McPeak is a flat-out legend, and I do not use the word lightly. Born in Hollywood in 1969, she went from Mira Costa High School to UCLA and on to a three-time Olympic beach volleyball career, racking up 72 professional titles and roughly 1.4 million dollars in earnings. Beach volleyball is brutally demanding, hours in the sun diving across hot sand, and to stay at the top for years takes a rare blend of grit and game intelligence. At 170 cm she clearly won with hops and tactical IQ rather than sheer size, which I admire even more. She reads to me as the genuine article, a Southern California icon who earned every bit of it.

Holly McPeak (born May 15, 1969) is an American retired indoor and beach volleyball player. McPeak was three-times an Olympian in beach volleyball. In the professional circuit, she garnered 72 career beach volleyball titles, with career earnings of US$1.4 million.
