I thought Cal Poly would have been ahead of USC, but I guess the coaches thought the USC win over FSU was enough to keep them ahead.
I didn't realize that Mewwirther had the same top 5 I did. : )

Big West Conference (7 members) Coastal Collegiate Sports Association (12 members) Ohio Valley Conference (6 members) Pac-12 Conference (9 members) Southland Conference (9 members) West Coast Conference (7 members) There are now 84 NCAA Beach Volleyball teams. Your list has most of the DI's, but are missing D2, D3 and Independents.

Final #6 Cal Poly 5 vs #7 GCU 0
1. Mariah Whalen/ Tia Miric vs Bella Baumann/Teagan DeFalco (Cal Poly SLO) 21-14, 21-18
2 Torrey Van Winden/ Macy Gordon vs Hannah Towne/Jessica Stansfield (Cal Poly SLO) 18-21, 21-19, 17-15
3 Emily Sonny/Jayelin Lombard vs Anaya Evans/ Katie Sarber (Cal Poly SLO) 21-15, 21-15
4 Vanessa Roscoe/ Brayden Gruenewald vs Natalie Honzovicova/ Katie Hess (Cal Poly SLO) 21-15, 21-16
5 Adlee Van Winden/Josie Ulrich vs Taylor Jarzombek/ Madi Relaz (Cal Poly SLO) 23-21, 18-21, 15-13
Exh. 22-20, 21-10 (Cal Poly)
What is interesting is that Cal Poly moved their #2 team to play against GCU's #1 pair, and they won quite handily, while CP's usual #1 pair played at the #2 spot and went to 3 sets. Will Miric and Whalen be the new CP #1 pair, or was this just for a specific match-up?

Though not in college anymore, this AVP article talks about Sarah Sponcil's transition from college ball (both indoor and beach), to playing pro beach volleyball. avp.com/news/sponcil-transition-indoor-beach/Hope this is not a duplicate post from another thread?

lsusports.net/news/2020/3/6/beach-volleyball-coppola-and-nuss-become-third-collegiate-beach-pair-with-100-wins.aspxCoppola and Nuss LSU's #1 pair have 100 wins as a pair. Only Claes and Hughes (USC) and the McNamara Twin(UCLA)s have 100 career wins as a pair. That got me thinking about what individuals have 100 career wins? What NCAA college pairs are in the 100 club? Who knows some pairs to add to the list? I'm sure FSU, and UCLA, Pepperdine, USC have a few as well? I know there will be a fair amount of players, but it would be interesting to combine that with how many from the various schools. NCAA might have a list? Hawai'i has Emily Maglio, and Ari Homayun who both reached the 100 club last year. UCLA's Sarah Sponcil reached 100 wins last year as well. Claire Coppola 2020 Kristen Nuss 2020 Sara Hughes Kelly Claes Megan McNamara 2019 Nicole McNamara 2019 Emily Maglio 2019 Ari Homayun 2019 Sarah Sponcil 2019 Ka'iwi Schucht 2018 Nikki Taylor 2017 Katie Spieler 2016
