Despite not winning a medal in Paris, the beach volleyball team is looking forward to the next Summer Olympics close to their alma mater.
After U.S. women’s beach volleyball duo, Sara Hughes and Kelly Cheng, failed Tuesday to secure a spot on the podium at the Paris Olympics, the USC alums are vowing to fight on for the next generation of athletes.
“When you just walk across the street, it feels like home,” Hughes added. “We were here for four years – every day, five times a week, practicing on this court. I love coming back here.”
