My Take
Jordan Larson is, to me, one of the great unsung American team athletes. Four Olympics, a full medal set, and crucially the outside hitter who finally delivered the U.S. women their first-ever volleyball gold in Tokyo. That gold ended a decades-long wait, and she was at the heart of it. What I respect is the longevity: silver in 2012, bronze in 2016, gold in 2020, silver again in 2024. Staying world-class across four Games is brutally hard. From Fremont, Nebraska to the top of the sport, she's the kind of steady, clutch leader every winning roster needs.
