Douglas Scott "Dusty" Dvorak (born July 29, 1958) is an American former volleyball player. He was a member of the United States national volleyball team that won the gold medal at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.[1][2] He is regarded as one of the greatest setters of all time.[2][3]

Dvorak helped the United States national team win the gold medal at the 1985 FIVB World Cup in Japan, where he was selected as the best setter.[4] He also helped the United States to the gold medal at the 1986 FIVB World Championship in France.[3] Along with the 1984 Olympic gold, this set of victories earned his team the "triple crown".[3]

Dvorak was inducted into the International Volleyball Hall of Fame in 1998.[2]
