10. Kerri Walsh Jennings

A local of the Bay Area, Kerri Walsh was born and raised in Santa Clara and Los Gatos. Ironically, she grew up competing against her future parter, Misty May-Treanor. The duo were dubbed the "greatest beach volleyball team of all time." Before the Olympic accolades which included a gold medal three-peat of the 2004, 2008 and 2012 games, Jennings was a four-year first-team All American at Stanford.
