Brooke (Niles) Hanson
 Brooke Hanson is one of the up and coming stars on the AVP tour. Along with partner Courtney Guerra, the two combine to be one of the youngest teams on the tour. In their rookie season, the team of Niles/ Guerra qualified in every event and by the end of the year had solidified their spot in the main draw with three 13th place finished, two top ten finishes, and a first place finish in the AVP Next Championship tournament.
Brooke was introduce to the beach when at the young age of six her Dad Randy, who was also a professional beach volleyball player as well as baseball player, taught her how to play beach volleyball. Teaming with several different partners throughout her youth, Brooke won the AAU Championship in Orlando, FL when she was fifteen and was one of the youngest players ever to gain her AAA beach rating at the age of sixteen.
Niles' indoor career finished at UC Santa Barbara where she was one of the most versatile players in Gaucho history. In 1999 she helped lead her team to it's second ever elite eight finished and was also named Big West Freshman of the year as an outside hitter. In 2002 Niles helped lead the UCSB Gauchos to it's best record in school history with a 33-3 record and another sweet sixteen finish and it's first ever Big West Championship. Brooke was also named AVCA All-American in 2002 as a setter.
Along with playing on the beach, Brooke Niles now is an assistant coach at UCSB under beach legend Kathy Gregory. A 2003 graduate of UCSB with a degree in law and society and a four-year Gaucho letterwinner, Niles is involved with all facets of running a high-profile Division I program, with particular emphasis on mentoring the Gaucho setters.
One of four children born to Tria and Randy Niles on March 11, 1981, Brooke grew around every sport imaginable. She now resides in Ventura, Ca but works in Santa Barbara as a volleyball coach.

Bobby Langin
Bobby Langin, 48. Lover of Christ, family, and anything with two wheels.
Bobby began racing motocross in the early 70’s and by the early 80’s created a mini-motocross playground in his backyard that became known as “Langtown” where an annual event occurred that was covered by magazines and television. Cross-training on bicycles is common among motocrossers consequently another hobby ensued.
In late 2006, mostly due to his son’s encouragement, Bobby got serious about the bicycles and started competing in cyclocross events. He attended the last three rounds of the 2006 Southern California Prestige cyclocross Series but Bobby was less than satisfied with his results (5th, 4th & 2nd respectively) and quickly consulted with Doctor Terry at CSI on training and recovery as well as obtaining the services of a local personal trainer who was well versed in cycling-training techniques.
Thanks to CSI and Doc Terry’s advice, not to mention training-injury repair therapy, Bobby enjoyed much improved 2007 results. Just a few short months after the 2006 season concluded Bobby began the Cal State Mountain Bike Series and at the conclusion of the seven-event series he finished 2nd in the 45-49 expert division missing the championship title by only a couple points.
A very short break followed the mtb season (a mere two weeks) and Bobby then started the So cal Prestige cyclocross Series. He won the first event of the season catching many of his competitors off-guard who had been handily beating Bobby in 2006. As the season progressed he won nearly every event he entered with the only blemish being a second place in event 3 in the 10-race series. He won the series title and then went on to win the SCNCA State Championships in Bakersfield.
For 2008 Langin intends to race the state mountain bike series again along with a few more national mountain bike events and then head into state cyclocross series. This along with a few road races will keep Bobby busy for 2008.
