UCLA Women's Volleyball: 3 Bruins Earn Impressive Scholastic Honor

They're putting in the work on and off the court!

Three of your UCLA Bruins women's volleyball stars have been burning the midnight oil in the library and the gym this season.

6'2" senior outside/opposite hitter Iman Ndiaye, 5'7" junior defensive specialist/libero Peyton Dueck, and 6'0" sophomore outside hitter Cheridyn Leverette have all earned a spot on the 2023 College Sports Communicators Academic All-Ditrict Team, according to UCLA Communications. 

Next up, this stellar triumvirate will get a shot at potential CSC Academic All-American bids. The results of that will be revealed on January 9th, 2024.

Ndiay is set to graduate this spring with a bachelor's degree in communications, while Dueck is majoring in psychology. Leverette has yet to determine a primary field of study. 

They're all pretty lethal on the court, too.

Ndiaye's 441 points and 375 kills (11th in the Pac-12) paced UCLA this season. For her efforts, she also earned an AVCA Pacific South All-Region Team selection and an All-Pac-12 Honorable Mention. Leverette notched 288 kills, while her 25 service aces ranked most among the Bruins. Dueck, a native of Aptos, California, notched 358 digs this season, 11th most in the conference.
