The event features pool play matches June 25-July 1 to set the field for the 32-team single-elimination brackets that begin July 2. The women’s medal matches will be July 4 followed by the men’s podium placement matches July 5. The winning teams will share $60,000.

With Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh out of the competition maybe Fendrick and her partner Ashley Ivy have a shot at the world title. . . good luck.
