Capital University

2021 Pam Briggs Classic

About the Tournament: Capital University and Otterbein University will combine to host the 2021 Pam Briggs Classic on September 10th and 11th. The schools will welcome six other schools to the Columbus area for the two-day tournament, honoring the longtime coach, Pam Briggs. 

About Pam Briggs: Pam spent 22 years at the helm of the Capital University volleyball program, coaching the Purple and White to what is known as their best stretch of success in program history. Under her guidance, the program achieved their only OAC Regular Season title, their only OAC Tournament Championship, and their two NCAA Tournament appearances. Briggs was also a mentor to her players individually as she aided in the development of three All-Americans, three Academic All-Americans, five OAC Players of the Year, and dozens of All-Conference honorees. As a coach, Briggs was named a three-time OAC Coach of the Year and the 2005 AVCA Regional Coach of the Year. She has since passed away, and this tournament now serves as one of many consistent opportunities to honor her memory and impact on not only Capital Volleyball but all of the OAC and surrounding communities. 

Location: The 2021 Pam Briggs Classic will be split between Capital University and Otterbein University, two OAC schools located just 20 minutes apart in the greater Columbus area. Games at Otterbein will be hosted inside the Rike Center while Capital will host games at the Performance Arena at the Capital Center. 

Ticketing: Admission will be granted via possession of a ticket only at both venues. Please pay close attention to what venues your team is playing at, as tickets will not be transferable from Capital to Otterbein and vice-versa. Both venues prefer the purchase of tickets in advance to allow for quicker and easier access to the facility.
