Feb 19, 2020
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Campbellsville (Ky.) remains at No. 1 in the third regular-season poll of the NAIA Men's Volleyball Coaches' Top 10 Poll.
Top 10 Highlights (historical information dates back to 2017):
- No. 1 Campbellsville received its second No. 1 rank in school history.
- No. 8 Cardinal Stritch (Wis.) is the only new team to the poll this week.
- Only two teams remain at the same rank this week: No. 1 Campbellsville and No. 2 Grand View (Iowa).
- No. 3 Park (Mo.) jumped into the Top 5 this week with a win over then-ranked No. 3 Missouri Baptist.
- No team has been ranked at No. 1 for an entire season. Grand View has the most No. 1-rankings with 13. Missouri Baptist (6), Park (Mo.) (3), Benedictine Mesa (2) and Campbellsville (Ky.) (2) are the only other teams that have been ranked at No. 1.
- Park holds the longest active streak in the polls with 29-consecutive rankings. Grand View, Lourdes (Ohio), Missouri Baptist and Ottawa (Kan.) follow with 28-consecutive rankings.
Poll Methodology
- The poll was voted upon by a panel of head coaches representing each of the conferences, Association of Independent Institutions and Unaffiliated Groups.
- The Top 10 is determined by a points system based on how each voter ranks the best teams. A team receives 12 points for each first-place vote, 11 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 in the ballot are not considered "receiving votes"
