Fifth-year Wichita State setter Izzi Strand sets up a teammate during the game against Kansas State. Strand was fifth in the NCAA in assists last season.
Izzi Strand is no stranger to juggling multiple things at once, whether it’s being the “quarterback” of the Wichita State volleyball team, keeping up the energy on the court or her life outside of volleyball.
Strand is a fifth-year transfer student who joined WSU last year from the University of California at San Diego. As a setter, Strand’s job on the court is to ensure her teammates are put in positions to succeed, whether that be with a perfect pass or encouragement.
