Its girls program ranks #33 nationally and #5 of 458 in CA for 2025-26, on a Club Score of 2,031. That places it in the Elite tier, the band VolleyLens assigns from Club Score. Of its 22 teams, 15 rate Elite, meaning an Elo of 1700 or better.

Those events were held in nine states, with 17 of 24 outside CA. Destinations included NV, UT, WA, FL, IN, MN, MO and PA. Travel is described here in trips and destinations rather than cost, because event locations carry no distances.
