April Ross
For over a decade, April ‘ The Boss ‘ was one of the best beach volleyball players in the league. In 2012, she won a silver medal with Jen Kessy, a longtime partner, and in 2016, a bronze medal with Kerri Walsh Jennings, another outstanding volleyball player. April Ross ends up marrying Bradley Keenan, who is also a professional volleyball player, and she holds a degree from Southern California University. Ross’s photo here is from the 2016 ESPY Awards. The bright blue halter dress she wore really brings her eyes out.
Hope Solo
Did you know that Hope Solo, the U.S. Olympic soccer player, wasn’t always a goalie on the soccer field? When she was younger she was a forward for her high school team. Solo switched over to being a goalie while she was playing in college and is now considered to be the best women’s goalkeepers ever. She has two Olympic gold medals to her name, which is well-deserved, as she let only three goals pass against team USA in the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup victory. The photo below is from the EPSYs.
