Why Mireya Luis ranks #4 in Volleyball

Mireya Luis ranks 4th among Volleyball athletes on GOAT Rank and 478th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 89.3 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 90, Peak 94, Longevity 82, Honours 92, Statistics 88. Those categories are normalised against the full Volleyball reference universe of 310 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 1984–2000 with 11 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1991, which sets the Peak component at 94. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic golds 3, world championship golds 2, world cup titles 2, best player awards 3.

Immediately ahead sits Francesca Piccinini on 86.5, a gap of -2.8 points. Directly behind is Kerri Walsh Jennings on 86.4. 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.
