Bio Bits

Witt has finished ranked in the top 10 in points each season from 2003-2005. Earned his first career victory in 2003 at Belmar with Sean Rosenthal, then they teamed together to win the season opener in 2004. In 2005, Witt ended seventh in terms of kills (1,195), and 10th in blocks (165). In 2006 his hitting percentage (.438) was the eighth best on the Tour.

Witt played the 2001 season with his brother (Andy), then did not play in 2002. Returned in 2003 and playing with Rosenthal, earned victories in their first two finals together. Six of his 13 Final Fours have come in tournaments on the East Coast, as have both of his titles (Belmar, Ft. Lauderdale).

Starred at Santa Ynez High School for coach Chip Fenenga. Played with Andy and George Roumain to form one of the best high school teams of all time. Both Witt brothers went to Stanford. Larry has been coached on the beach by Mike Dodd, a Silver Medalist at the 1996 Olympic Games with Mike Whitmarsh. His father Bob played water polo at USC.
