Poppe Named OCCAC Volleyball Player of the Week

The Ohio Community College Athletic Conference has named Edison State Community College sophomore Bailey Poppe (West Liberty-Salem HS) the OCCAC Volleyball Player of the Week for September 22, 2025. This is the outside hitter's second recognition this season and extends the team's streak to four straight honors to begin the 2025 season.

Poppe led Edison State to a trifecta of conference wins, hitting .538 with 49 kills across the three sweeps. She recorded no less than a dozen points in all three matches, including a 28-point outburst (23 kills, three aces, and two solo blocks) against Lorain County to close out the week. Poppe terminated her 49 kills on 80 attempts with just six errors.

Defensive contributions were aplenty as well, with Poppe putting up 2.8 digs per set and a total of six blocks.

Poppe was also recognized as the NJCAA Volleyball DII Offensive Player of the Week. 

The Lady Chargers are currently 15-2 overall and 4-0 in the conference.
