Why Earvin Ngapeth ranks #4 in Volleyball

Earvin Ngapeth ranks 4th among Volleyball athletes on GOAT Rank and 2109th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 90.6 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 90, Peak 95, Longevity 84, Honours 94, Statistics 90. Those categories are normalised against the full Volleyball reference universe of 308 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 2009–present with 18 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2018, which sets the Peak component at 95. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 95 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic gold medals 2, european titles 1, nations league titles 1, cev champions league titles 2.

Immediately ahead sits Marlenis Costa on 90.7, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Fabiana Alvim on 89.8. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
