Edwin Duran '26 Recruiting Profile

I'm super excited about the idea of playing at the college level if I have the chance. I want to be a part of a team where I can make a difference and step up my game. I'm all about pushing myself, trying to get better, and contributing to a team's wins. On, the academic side, I'm looking to study interior design which is something that if I put my head into it would set me up for success down the line, whether that's volleyball or interior design. I'm all in to put in the work and take on the challenges that college sports/academics bring. I have liked volleyball since I was 9, I was in the Boys and Girls Club of Lawrence after school and I used to go and spend my time playing volleyball. One of the staff saw me and took the opportunity to give me some practice that to this day I remember because it made me fall in love with volleyball.  As well, I'm super dedicated to volleyball and always hustle on the court. I love the game and I'm always looking to get better at every practice that I attend. I'm a team player, super into working with others, and I have got a pretty good handle on all the key moves. Plus, I'm always open to feedback cause I wanna keep leveling up my game and help the team win those games. Well, what sets me apart is that I'm not all about the sport, you know? I take my grades pretty seriously and balance my time between work, school, and volleyball. I've got this drive that keeps me going even when things get tough. And character, everybody is different in their way but I'm the kind of person who cheers on my team no matter what, I respect teammates, coaches, and everyone, and I step up when the pressure's on.
