Kadel, Pine Named OCCAC Players of the Week

The Ohio Community College Athletic Conference has named Edison State Community College sophomore Abigail Kadel (Miami East HS) the OCCAC Softball Position Player of the Week and sophomore Marissa Pine (Graham HS) the OCCAC Softball Pitcher of the Week for March 30-April 4, 2026.

Kadel went 3-for-4 with a double, an RBI, and three runs during Edison State's lone contest—a 17-1 mercy rule triumph at the University of Northwestern Ohio (JV). She also earned the OCCAC Position Player of the Week award just over a year ago, on March 31, 2025.

Pine is a familiar face for this accolade, now the owner of seven such awards. This represents her first of 2026 after being named Pitcher of the Week five times and Position Player of the Week once in 2025. Her latest award-worthy showing was a perfect three innings in the circle, striking out seven of nine batters faced to register the win in the 17-1 mercy rule contest.

The Lady Chargers are currently 10-5 overall and 4-2 in the conference.
