Becca Lamb is in her second season as a volunteer assistant coach for the USC Upstate volleyball program.

Lamb has spent the last two seasons playing professional volleyball overseas in both Germany and Finland. She played for NawaRo Volleyball Club in Straubing, Germany from 2012 to 2013, and Paka Volleyball Club in Kuusamo, Finland in 2013 and 2014. This past season her team at Paka captured the league’s second division championship, and earned the right to advance and compete in the top league.

Prior to playing overseas, she was a right side for head coach David Schwepker at Murray State from 2007-10. She appeared in 122 matches and 446 sets during her four-year career and ranks fifth all-time in career kills with 1,152. Lamb also ranks in the top 10 all-time in several categories including matches played, sets played, attacks, total blocks and block assists.

She was a Second Team All-OVC selection as a junior after recording 284 kills, 129 digs and 62 total blocks.  Lamb recorded a career-high 310 kills during her freshman campaign and just missed matching that mark as a senior as she finished with 309. She was just one of two freshman to start in all 31 matches in 2007 and appeared in all but two matches the following year. Lamb was voted team captain as a senior.

Lamb also competed in track & field for two seasons at Murray State. She threw the javelin and scored in the OVC Championships as the Racers earned a fifth-place team finish.

Lamb excelled in the classroom at Murray State receiving OVC Commissioner’s Honor Roll accolades in each of her four seasons.

She played her prep career at Mater Dei High School in Breese, Ill. where she helped lead the Knights to a 113-43 record over four seasons. Lamb was Honorable Mention All-State at Mater Dei while also picking up All-Area First Team and Honorable Mention All-Area honors.

Lamb earned her bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from Murray State in 2011, and then received her master’s degree in human development and leadership from Murray State in 2013.
