Why Randy Stoklos ranks #18 in Volleyball

Randy Stoklos ranks 18th among Volleyball athletes on GOAT Rank and 1488th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 87.8 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 86, Peak 92, Longevity 88, Honours 84, Statistics 90. Those categories are normalised against the full Volleyball reference universe of 309 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 1979–1996 with 18 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1984, which sets the Peak component at 92. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 92 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes career beach titles 122, avp mvp awards 3, world championship titles 1, years on tour 18.

Immediately ahead sits Zoila Barros on 87.8, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Todd Rogers on 87.9. 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.
