Timeline
Dain Blanton (born November 28, 1971, in Laguna Beach, California) is an American former beach volleyball player who won the gold medal in beach volleyball in the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia with partner Eric Fonoimoana.
As a high school senior in 1990, Blanton was named the Orange County Player of the Year, Most Valuable Player of the Pacific Coast League and earned All-American honors at the Junior Olympics.
Blanton was also an All-State Basketball player who led Laguna Beach to the CIF Finals in 1990.
Blanton attended Pepperdine University, where he was an All-American and guided the Waves to an NCAA Championship in 1992 as a sophomore.
Blanton was known for his fast serve, holding the AVP record for 11 aces in a single game to 15 in Vail, Colorado, in 1997.
After winning gold at the 2000 Olympics, Blanton and Fonoimoana broke their partnership because of rule changes that went into effect in 2001.
(Rally or point per play scoring as opposed to having to serve to score a point; court size changed from 30x30 feet per side to 8x8 meters).
Height became a deciding factor because the new rules provided an advantage for a full-time tall blocker at the net.
They went separate ways in search of big blockers.
He returned to the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Greece with partner Jeff Nygaard, becoming the first two-time U.S. male beach volleyball Olympian.
Blanton is one of the only players in the history of volleyball to win a championship at every level of the game (collegiate, Olympic, and professional).
In the 2004 Olympics, Blanton and Nygaard were seeded eighth, but failed to advance out of pool play.
Currently, Blanton is a sports broadcasting analyst covering the FIVB, AVP, NVL (National Volleyball League), and the Jose Cuervo Pro Beach Series, as well as working as a sideline reporter for the Los Angeles Clippers.
His career in sports broadcasting has involved working with ABC, NBC, ESPN, Fox Sports Net, and Universal Sports Network.
He covers many sports including NBA, beach volleyball, MLB, college basketball, and college football.
Blanton also does motivational speaking events each year to inspire and be a role-model.
