NEW PODCAST: Danielle Scott, 5-Time U.S. Olympic Volleyball Player

THIS IS EPISODE 346 OF THE SPORTS SPECTRUM PODCAST

Danielle Scott is one of the most decorated female volleyball players of all-time. In 1993, she was the National Player of the Year and a national champion with Long Beach State. She went on to participate in five Olympics (1996, 2000, 2004, 2008 and 2012), a U.S. women’s volleyball record, winning silver medals in 2008 and 2012.

In 2016, Scott was inducted into the International Volleyball Hall of Fame.

On this episode of the podcast, we talk to Scott about her storied volleyball career and participating in the Olympics. The conversation then takes a turn as we discuss the very tragic events that occurred in November 2018, when Scott’s sister, Stefanie, was killed by her estranged husband. Danielle was present that day and suffered wounds to both of her palms and her left thigh, knee and lower leg. We hear Danielle’s emotional story of forgiveness, pain and trusting in God throughout this very difficult season of life.
