I double checked the roster.  Sure enough 22 players.  How can the team carry 22 players? And why would the Beach VB do that? Some of those players will never see any meaningful playing time. 

I'm starting to believe some of these recruits are using beach vb as a way to circumvent the typical odds of getting admitted to Stanford.

Don't forget that the athletes on women's teams balance out the athletes on men's teams.
Beach Volleyball has a limit of 19 players plus designated players.

The real oddity in terms of player count, at least on the face of it, is 55 participants in Acrobatics & Tumbling (an increase by 40 over previous scholarship limits).  Why, next year, this sport will even have a NCAA championship.  (NACTA, the current governing body, limits teams to 28 participants on the game-time roster, with one event having a team of up to 24 participants. Currently 12 D-I schools, 29 D-II, 12 D-III)
