About the team:

Jessie and Sarah both played volleyball at Division I schools, Jessie played at Western Kentucky and Sarah played at Dartmouth. Sara, Jamie and Janelle all moved here about 3 years ago and are the official "captains." And finally, Erin, Jennifer, and Ashley are the teams"social coordinators" because they always set up the team practices (and find the best happy hour specials after our practices). Everybody on the team is employed full-time and enjoying hanging out at the beach, enjoying the local music scene, and bumming around on thteir beach cruisers during the weekends. Also, they're all relatively new to Los Angeles and have moved here from Missouri, San Francisco, New York, and Indiana.
