2023 NAIA Women's Beach Volleyball Preseason Coaches Top 10 Poll
Feb 01, 2023
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Corban (Ore.) won the inaugural NAIA Invitational and begins the 2023 season atop the preseason edition of the NAIA Women's Beach Volleyball Coaches' Top 10 Poll.
Poll Methodology
- The poll was voted upon by a panel of head coaches representing each of the conferences and Unaffiliated Groups.
- The Top 10 is determined by a points system based on how each voter ranks the best teams. A team receives 15 points for each first-place vote, 14 for second place and so on through the list.
- The highest and lowest ranking for each team (a non-rating is considered a low rating) is removed and the team's ranking will be recalculated with an additional point added to each team for every ballot (including discounted ballots) that the teams appear on.
- Teams that receive only one point on the ballot are not considered "receiving votes"
