February 10, 2026.- After demonstrating her ability to excel in all areas of the game, Atlanta’s Leah Edmond has been selected as the Major League Volleyball Player of the Week presented by Franklin Sports. The outside hitter turned in a stellar performance as the Vibe won their second straight match with a 3-2 road victory at Orlando.
The native of Lexington, Ky. posted a strong attack efficiency to go along with a high kill percentage, powerful back row attacking and steady serving and passing. Statistically, she recorded her fourth 20-kill performance of the season when she finished with 24 kills at Addition Financial Area. Edmond totaled 27 points, the fifth time she has surpassed the 20-point plateau in 2026. She also added 12 digs, two aces, one block and one assist while boasting a .447 efficiency mark and a kill percentage of 51%.
Edmond has had double-digits in points and kills in every match this season, while adding double-figure dig totals in six of eight outings. She has a .377 efficiency mark over the past two victories for Atlanta. The honor marks the third career weekly accolade for Edmond.
The Vibe returns to action on Saturday, February 14 when they travel to face the Grand Rapids Rise. Fans interested in tickets to the match – or any match in Major League Volleyball – can purchase them via links at the MLV Tickets Central page on the league website.
