Why Lloy Ball ranks #132 in Volleyball
Lloy Ball ranks 132nd among Volleyball athletes on GOAT Rank and 3024th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 83.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 88, Longevity 90, Honours 82, Statistics 80. 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 1994–2011 with 18 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2007, which sets the Peak component at 88. Longevity is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic gold medals 1, olympic games contested 4, world league medals 2, italian league titles 1.
Immediately ahead sits Matt Anderson on 83.5, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Robertlandy Simón on 83.5. 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.
