April Ross

April Ross is only one of the beach volleyball players to have won medals at least twice in an Olympics. In Tokyo during the next few days, she'll be aiming to win her third gold medal along with first-time Olympian Alix Klineman. In addition, Ross is aiming to capture her very first Olympic gold. At 39, it could be her final chance to achieve it. However, she's confident that the top awards are within reach. Ross through NBC Boston, said that if the team plays well or at all they could win a gold. "I'm planning to test some luck." Ross was born in the city of Costa Mesa, California in the year 1982. Her parents as well as her sister resided there. Ross was a competitive athlete in a variety of activities while at Newport Harbor High School. As a prep-athlete, she also played indoor volleyball and track. While she did well at indoor volleyball but it was apparent that her abilities were higher than average. During her high school career she was a middle blocker outside setter and hitter on the volleyball court per her college bio. As a tribute to her efforts, she received the Gatorade Award for National Player 1999. Also, in 2000 she was recognized as the Orange County Athlete of the Year for volleyball. Ross and Klineman might have begun working together in 2017, but Ross had already been a seasoned volleyball player before they teamed up. Actually Ross has won a number of important tournaments throughout her career together with two other partners. One of them is a legend. From 2007 to 2013 she played by Jennifer Kessy, who is now her coach. Kessy was Ross's co-coach at the World Championships in 2009. They won a Silver Medal during the 2012 Olympic Games held in London. Misty May Treanor and Kerri Jennings, the team of legends who took home the Olympic gold medal in 2012 in London, took them out to win the gold medal. Ross Jennings took over for May-Treanor after she announced her retirement. They went on to compete for the bronze medal in beach volleyball at Rio Olympics 2016 with Walsh Jennings. Ross was a player for the Trojans at USC during her college years after she graduated the high school she attended. The Trojans had a great performance for Ross during her time at the school. As a freshmen in 2000, her play earned her the Pac-10 and NCAA the Freshman of the Year award. Additionally, she assisted her Trojans to reach the Final Four. Her personal life was tense after a devastating defeat in her sophomore year however, she was capable of achieving the All-American award. Over her final 2 seasons with the Trojans team, she led them to a national title each year. She was a fantastic volleyball player and won the Honda Sports Award in 2003-04 as the most outstanding female volleyball player in the NCAA. Ross took a course in international relations at USC. Unfortunately Ross mom Margie did not get to see Ross rise to the top levels of beach volleyball stardom. Margie, Ross's mother, passed away in 2001, when Ross was still a USC sophomore. She had breast cancer. She has kept her mother in her his heart. Margie has always been a source of inspiration for her both on and off the beach.
