AVP Chicago Preview: Who is Going to Make the AVP League?

Welcome back to Beach Access, where Kyle Friend and Travis Mewhirter break down, preview, recap, analyze, and chat all things beach volleyball. After a week in Germany for the Hamburg Elite16, the boys are back stateside and heading to AVP Chicago, the final stop on the AVP calendar, where there are huge AVP League implications. We chat about: - What every team needs to do to qualify for the AVP League - Why we believe April Ross and Alix Klineman will get a wild card, making it an even tighter race for the women - Why the contender's bracket on Saturday will be the most interesting aspect of the weekend - Why Travis is all-in on a heroic run from Tri Bourne and Ryan Wilcox to make the league -- zero bias here!
