2022-23 NAIA Men's Volleyball Preseason Coaches Top 15 Poll
Dec 14, 2022
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Grand View (Iowa) sits atop the 2022 NAIA Men's Volleyball Preseason Coaches' Top 15 Poll after winning its second consecutive national title.
Poll Methodology
- The poll was voted upon by a panel of head coaches representing each of the conferences and Unaffiliated Groups.
- The Top 15 is determined by a points system based on how each voter ranks the best teams. Each voter ranks 20 teams. A team receives 20 points for each first-place vote, 19 for second place, 18 for third 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"
