    About this Episode

    Shawn and Shermdawg sit down with Westcliff Women's Indoor Volleyball Head Coach Derrick Trent, who was selected by our Twitter followers to be the show's first guest.

    But before that, topics ranged the gamut, from Maryland's state sport to the global recruiting of Westcliff's Lacrosse coach, Kevin Arabejo. The guys shout-out surf coach Kyle Rouse, who can be found at either Laguna, Newport or Huntington Beach, and then they ponder which drink approach best suits LA's poppin' nightlife: Umbrella or No Umbrella?

    In the Derrick Trent interview, Coach explains how last year's "Road Warriors" made it through the ultimate grind, and why they popped Shermet's baseball team in best Team GPA. Sorry, Dave.

    Trent also takes time to talk about some of the players we can't wait to watch next season, including Sierra Lim, Rylee Adair, Leah Price, Amanda Gross, Hailey Frey, Brooke Scheidle, Kami Marion, Meghan Tilschner and more.

    Finally, Trent discusses how he landed Austrian powerhouse Sara Neiss.
