Greg Olsen sits down with two of the most important voices in women's volleyball for back-to-back conversations on the rise of League One Volleyball, the state of the women's game, and what it means for the next generation of girls coming up through club and college.
First, Greg talks with two-time Olympic medalist and LOVB Head of Player Experience Courtney Thompson about her journey from club gyms to Olympic podiums to building the architecture of America's first-of-its-kind pro volleyball league — one that connects youth clubs directly to the pro game.
Then, Greg sits down with Lexi Rodriguez — All-American libero, former Nebraska standout, and one of the brightest young stars in the LOVB Pro league — about her path from junior club volleyball to going pro stateside, the responsibility that comes with being a role model for girls watching, and why she believes American volleyball is just getting started.
This episode kicks off the year-long partnership between Youth Inc. and League One Volleyball, including the launch of The Courtney Thompson Show — a flagship monthly interview series hosted by Courtney, featuring LOVB players and coaches.
