Beach volleyball player Kerri Walsh and her partner Misty May-Treanor are two-time Olympic champions, having taken gold in the 2004 and 2008 Games. As a high schooler, Walsh played indoor volleyball but found her true calling when she took to the beach. Her husband, Casey Jennings, is also a pro beach volleyball player. Despite a
