OSAAtoday presents its 2026 pre-season statewide girls volleyball coaches polls in all classifications. Thanks to all the coaches who took the time and had the expertise to contribute their opinions to this endeavor.
Look for the volleyball coaches polls every other Friday during the fall season.
Please note: these polls are for generating interest and discussion only and have no impact on the OSAA ratings that form the basis of the OSAA’s rankings for playoff purposes.
Varsity head coaches who did not vote in this poll but would like to going forward may contact me at johnt@osaa.org to learn how. All are welcome AND NEEDED.
