My Take
Paul Lotman is a towering 201 cm presence who genuinely earned his stripes. Born in Lakewood, California in 1985 and developed at Long Beach State, he reached the 2012 London Olympics and then helped the U.S. win the 2014 World League and the 2015 World Cup, a serious haul of hardware. What intrigues me is his later pivot to beach volleyball, since the indoor and sand games reward very different instincts and few make the crossover gracefully. I imagine a player whose size masked a surprisingly delicate touch. Athletes who keep competing across formats, rather than coasting on past glory, always win my admiration.
