- Randy Stoklos is an American beach volleyball commentator and was highly regarded as the "King of the Beach" as a beach professional player, along with his partner, Sinjin Smith. Amassing 122 victories on the sand, his percentage of wins vs tournament participation (362) is an uncanny number that will most likely never be repeated. Leaving school early to pursue the sport (UCLA) turned out to be a wise choice, being the first player to reach the 1-million-dollar mark, en route to a hall of fame career that picked up what seems to be countless individual and team awards. His endeavors off the court bordered on the term pop culture, appearing in the video game "Kings of the Beach" and the volleyball-cult film "Side Out."
