Why Paola Egonu ranks #31 in Volleyball
Paola Egonu ranks 31st among Volleyball athletes on GOAT Rank and 900th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 79.0 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 88, Longevity 70, Honours 78, Statistics 82. 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 2015–present with 10 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2023, which sets the Peak component at 88. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 88 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic golds 1, world championship medals 2, nations league titles 2, champions league titles 2.
Immediately ahead sits Foluke Akinradewo on 77.9, a gap of -1.1 points. Directly behind is Osmany Juantorena on 75.7. 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.
