Origin
and identity

Regla Torres combined blocking, attacking and exceptional reach in the Cuban team that won three consecutive Olympic titles.

Torres was only seventeen when Cuba won the Barcelona Olympics in 1992. She grew from the youngest member of that triumph into one of the defining players of the decade.

Gold in Atlanta and Sydney followed. Her World Championship performances and all-round skills brought recognition beyond one position: the FIVB named her its female player of the twentieth century.
