Jordan Larson

Larson dabbled in a lot of sports growing up, but volleyball was the one that stuck. From her small hometown of Hooper, Neb. with a population of 832 people, she became an international volleyball star. She graduated from the University of Nebraska in 2008 with a degree in communications with a minor in psychology.

After earning 4,569 total points in Season 1, Larson was named the inaugural Athletes Unlimited Volleyball Champion. She is a three-time Olympic medalist with Team USA, winning gold at the Tokyo 2020 Games, bronze in 2016 and silver in 2012. She also won gold at the 2014 World Championship with the U.S. She spent several years with Turkish Club Eczacibasi, where she helped the club become the first in the world to win the FIVB World Club Championship back-to-back.
