MANHATTAN BEACH >> While players down on the sand Thursday were trying to qualify to get into the main draw of this week’s Manhattan Beach Open, four rather terrific beach volleyball players were up on the pier for the Walk of Fame ceremony honoring their 2016 championships at the granddaddy of them all.
Jake Gibb and Casey Patterson, and Emily Day and Brittany Hochevar were the happy recipients of plaques they could take home. And they were overjoyed knowing that identical plaques would be forever embedded in the concrete deck of the pier.
