It did not take long for Johnson Jordan and Davis to make their
mark on tour. They got their first win in 1999 and finished second
that same year in the FIVB World Championships.
Johnson was a model of consistency. She finished ranked in the
top 10 in season points each year she competed on the AVP tour.
She won a total of 12 times, including a 2002 Manhattan Open
win earning a coveted plaque on the Manhattan Beach Pier.
Playing during a period of significant change and upheaval on
the professional circuit, Davis competed in virtually every tour,
including the Pro 4s circuit, the FIVP, WPVA, BVA, AVP, and NVL.
She was, in short, a professional’s professional.
Johnson Jordan’s proudest moment came when she represented
the United States in the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, finishing in a
strong fifth place. On the court, Johnson Jordan was a fiery competitor,
relentless on defense, and a high riser out of the sand.
She and her partner Davis were also models for female athletes,
balancing young families while competing professionally and also
serving as role models for female beach players of color.
Since retiring from playing, Johnson Jordan has remained heavily
involved in the sport. She is the assistant coach on the National
Champion Bruin beach volleyball program and a High Performance
Coach for USA Volleyball, as well as coaching at her alma mater,
Windward High School.
When she’s not coaching, Johnson Jordan spends time with her
husband, former UCLA All-American wide receiver Kevin Jordan,
and their two children, Jaylen and Kory.
By her play, her loyalty, and her example, Johnson Jordan is a true
Hall of Famer.
