John Mayer, the beach volleyball head coach, has been with the team since its inception in 2012 and has recently cemented LMU as a nationally-acclaimed beach volleyball program. He hopes the new courts will bring forth a surge of student support and develop a true home-field advantage.
“[Playing] down at the beach is fun, but we don’t get a lot of [student attendees] — it’s more of a beach crew. We’re here [now]. We want some rowdiness; we want some hecklers. We want an environment where we can have some fun,” said Mayer.
