The woman in the lower right corner in the gray shirt is Ivanna Rivera (2025).
Who is the woman in the backrow in the red Stanford shirt? 
Rivera also posted a photo with her on her IG (but didn't tag her).

Expect the 2024 schedule any day now.

Stanford will be hosting GCU April 19-20 according to their schedule:  https://gculopes.com/sports/womens-beach...edule/2024
I assume this will be a multi-school weekend.

GCU and Stanford will both be in the MPSF for beach next year.

ETA:  UCLA schedule shows them meeting Stanford in Hawaii at the start of the season in February.

A lot of schools have released schedules, but not Stanford.

But besides the previously mentioned dates, we now know SJSU will be hosting Stanford and several other schools March 1 &2.
St. Mary's will be at Stanford on Monday, March 25th (also USF).
Washington is hosting the Pac-12 North Invitational Apr 5 & 6; Stanford will be there (according to the Utah schedule).
And the Huskies and Cal will be at Stanford Apr 19 & 20, along with GCU, to close out the regular season.

Oh, and Hawaii's schedule shows Stanford will take on LMU, UCLA, USC and Hawaii the first weekend (Feb 22-24).

This IG post from Emmy Sharp seems to indicate she might not be playing this year?  She is on the roster.
Or maybe she'll be back for Spring quarter? Or next year?

"not a goodbye just a see you later♥️ so so thankful for all the support and love"

Aww, crap, stanfordbeachvb story explains:
"Emmy suffered a season-ending injury this pre-season.  We will miss her on the courts this spring!"

OK, apparently they haven't updated their website, but here is the actual CBVB pre-season rankings, with Stanford #5.
That seems optimistic to me, but could turn out to be right.

Wow, not in my wildest dreams did I think Stanford would start the season 4-0, with wins over #1 USC, #2 UCLA, #5 LMU and #9 Hawaii.

They did fall in the rematch with UCLA, 2-3.  But great start with a lot of freshmen.

USC and UCLA went 1-1 with each other.
Stanford and UCLA went 1-1 with each other.
Stanford went 1-0 with USC.

I assume these will be the top three in the poll next week, in some order. 
Unless they keep FSU in the mix (3-0 vs. unranked opponents).
