2026 3C2A JUCO ALUMNI LEADERBOARD
COAST (SOUTH) CONFERENCE
Ohlone Leads the 3C2A Coast (South) in Alumni Placement Score, Efficiency and Win Percentage
Ohlone leads the 3C2A Coast (South) with a 152.7 Raw Alumni Placement Score (APS) — the highest Raw APS of any of the conference’s 6 reporting colleges.
Across all 6 Coast (South) colleges, 119 alumni are currently active on four-year rosters — spanning NCAA Division I, II, and III, NAIA, NCCAA, and USCAA programs. The Coast (South) is ranked by Alumni Placement Score (APS) rather than raw alumni count alone — a model built to reflect where a program’s alumni are playing, not just how many of them there are. These counts are an annual snapshot, updated as alumni move levels year to year (JUCO to D2, then D2 to D1, for example) — not a full transfer history.
What Is Alumni Placement Score?
Alumni Placement Score (APS) weights each alumnus by the level they’re playing at: NCAA Division I counts for 5.0 points, NCAA Division II for 4.3, NAIA for 4.0, NCAA Division III for 3.7, NCCAA for 2.5, and USCAA for 2.0. A program’s Raw APS is the sum of those weighted points across all of its alumni. Two programs with the same number of alumni can post very different Raw APS totals if one is sending players to NCAA Division I rosters and the other to NCCAA rosters — a distinction a simple headcount can’t capture.
Ohlone’s Triple Lead
Ohlone’s 33 alumni produce a Raw APS of 152.7, 25.4 points ahead of West Valley (127.3). Ohlone’s 18 NCAA Division I alumni also give it the conference’s best Efficiency APS (4.63), and its 40-10-0 record (.800) is the Coast (South)’s best win percentage. Cabrillo ranks third at 105.2, carried by 15 NCAA Division II alumni.

Monterey Peninsula’s Efficiency APS of 4.50 ranks third in the conference, behind Ohlone (4.63) and West Valley (4.55), even though its Raw APS (89.9) ranks 4th — 13 of its 20 alumni play at the NCAA Division II level.
How These Rankings Are Calculated
Rankings are based on Alumni Placement Score (APS), which weights each alumnus by the level they’re playing at rather than counting every roster spot the same. Total alumni is highlighted alongside Raw APS in the table. When two or more colleges tie on Raw APS, the higher total alumni count breaks the tie; win percentage is the second-level tiebreaker if Total Alumni is also equal. See the 2026 APS methodology for the formula, weights, and FAQ.
