2024 NAIA Women's Beach Volleyball Coaches' Top 10 Rating - Final (April 15)

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Corban (Ore.) moved to the top of the NAIA Coaches' Top 10 final regular season rating. All 10 teams that were in the previous Top 10 rating remained in the Top 10 this week. Saint Katherine (Calif.) was the only team in the rating to remain at the same rank as last time. 

Rating Methodology

  • A panel of head coaches rated the teams. Two coaches represent each of the conferences/Continental Athletic Conference (Independents)/unaffiliated groups.
  • The Coaches' Top 10 is determined by a points system based on how each rater 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".
