The FIU beach volleyball team is only 12 weeks away from the start of the 2016 regular season. Each week leading up to the season opener on March 4th, a different beach player will be featured in this weekly series. This week, Sand Panthers introduces sophomore Estefanie Bethancourt.
Bethancourt is one of the most enjoyable players to be around. As the other half of the Guatemalan duo, Tefi is the newest champion on the roster.
As a freshman, Tefi didn't play much, as was the case for most underclassmen last season.
