Costas Theocharidis, originally from a small town in a remote, rural part of Greece, was a dominant outside hitter for the University of Hawai'i (UH) men's volleyball program from 2000 to 2003. “Greece Lightning,” as he was affectionately called by fans, had one of the most decorated careers in NCAA college sports history, breaking records and earning nearly every athletic and academic award possible. He became the NCAA Division I all-time leader in kills and attacks per set (rally scoring era), the first-ever four-time first-team All-American in US college men’s volleyball history, the only international player to be a two-time NCAA National Player of the Year, and the first-ever Academic All-American of the Year for UH in US college sports.[1]
