Volleyball Tour Fines Johnson, Stoklos

Capistrano Beach’s Adam Johnson and Randy Stoklos of Pacific Palisades have been fined $7,500 each and Johnson has been suspended for one tournament by officials of the Assn. of Volleyball Professionals beach tour.

Johnson and Stoklos violated tour rules by using a conflicting sponsor’s equipment. Stoklos will be eligible to play this weekend in Grand Haven, Mich., but Johnson must sit out because he used the conflicting sponsor’s water bottles and towels on several occasions.

Stoklos was fined $35,000 by the AVP two years ago for violating his contract and skipping the Seal Beach Open to play in a tournament in Spain.

Johnson and Stoklos won last weekend’s tournament in San Francisco, breaking a streak of seven consecutive tournament victories by San Clemente’s Karch Kiraly and Kent Steffes of Pacfic Palisades.
