2026: Duckworth improved dramatically in his second season, posting highs in every category.  He put down 87 kills, averaging 1.07 per set, pocketed seven assists, two service aces, 31 digs, and 68 total blocks.  He had nine kills as his season-high, which came at home in the second game against UC Merced.  He had four games without any errors and hit .263 on the season on 198 attempts.  He grabbed his first solo block at home against Lindenwood and had a pair of games with two solo stops.  On the assist side, he had three games with seven block assists, including back-to-back games against UC San Diego and then the first game at Menlo.  Playing in 20 more matches, Duckworth ended with 127.5 total points, good for 1.57 per set.

2025: Entered in five matches and nine sets in his first season and got his first kill against Merrimack, a game where he did not have an error on six swings.  That ended up being his best offensive game, as he tallied only five kills sprinkled over his final four matches.  On his side of the net, Duckworth made five block assists and five digs, with all five of those blocks coming in that Merrimack contest.  He bookended his season with two digs against Merrimack and Jessup.
