The route Marta Duda took into university basketball
Forward (6-2)
Athlavia had no involvement with Marta Duda. She has not used this product, is not connected to it and has not endorsed it. Everything on this page about her is drawn from the published sources listed at the foot, and cited so you can read the originals. The sentences about what an association’s rules permit are ours; they are statements about a rulebook, they are marked as such where they appear, and they are not about her.
No photograph. Roster images belong to the universities and photographers who made them.

One of 110 routes documented, covering 108 women. See all of them.
The route
Three stops: Two-year college, then NCAA Division II — from a two-year college to a four-year one, then NCAA Division II — same level. No other woman among the 108 documented here followed this sequence of levels.
Left to right is the order the sources place her stops in. It is not a time axis: 54 of the 181 stops recorded across this site carry a bare pair of dates and the rest are prose, so the years are printed as written, in the list below.
The rows are the NCAA’s own three divisions, plus two dashed rows for everything outside them. NAIA and U SPORTS are separate associations rather than a lower NCAA tier, and nothing in these records ranks them against it; the two-year colleges sit at the foot because a junior college is an institution players transfer on from, which the records do say. The shaded bar behind each row is how many of the 110 routes documented here include a stop at that level.
The stops, as the sources record them
Printed as written. The drawing above compresses these; this list does not, because every caveat in the research lives inside these sentences.

What these levels are, and what money can exist at them
These are facts about rulebooks. They apply to everyone at that level, and none of them is a statement about her.
Two-year college
Grayson College (Denison, Texas)
Which NJCAA division Grayson College (Denison, Texas) played in is not established by her sources, so we cannot say which of the three rulebooks applied. Divisions I and II permit athletic scholarships; Division III does not.
NCAA Division II
This association permits athletic scholarships. Whether any particular player received one, and how much of one, is not published.
Where she was before she left
Hometown listed by Spring Hill College as Torun, Poland. Her Spring Hill bio names her high school as SMS PZKosz Lomianki, a Polish basketball sports school.
What happened, in the sources’ account
Duda came out of a Polish basketball sports school to a junior college in Texas, spent two seasons there, moved to an NCAA Division II school in Arkansas for one year, then finished at Spring Hill College in Alabama, where she started all 28 games in 2024-25 and led the team with 244 rebounds. Her listed major is graphic design. Three stops in five years, not one golden ticket.
What is known about money
Athletic scholarships are permitted at NCAA Division II, where she played. That is a fact about the rulebook, not about her.
Which NJCAA division Grayson College (Denison, Texas) played in is not established by her sources, so we cannot say which of the three rulebooks applied. Divisions I and II permit athletic scholarships; Division III does not.
No source we fetched states what she received, if anything.
6 of the 110 routes documented here have a source stating any financial term at all. The other 104 do not, and that is normal rather than a gap in the research: a university announces a signing as a roster addition, and what a player was offered stays between her and the programme. Read silence as silence.
No source states anything about money.
Copied without editing. Like the checking notes further down, some of these sentences are instructions to the person writing this page rather than statements about her.
No source we fetched states any scholarship, financial aid amount, percentage or term for Duda. Her Spring Hill bio records only athletic and academic performance. Do not describe her as having received a scholarship of any size. (Note: the Grayson College Wikipedia article mentions athletic scholarships in baseball and softball only, and says nothing about her or about basketball.)
What happened since
Not published in the sources we fetched. Her last recorded season is 2024-25; she does not appear on the Spring Hill 2025-26 roster, which we fetched and read in full. No professional signing found.
No retrieval date is stored against these sources, so treat anything time-sensitive — a current club, a current roster — as needing a fresh check.
Athlavia’s note on this route
Everything above is drawn from the sources. This is our editorial judgement about why the route is worth showing, and it is the only opinion on this page.
This is the most realistic template in the set: junior college first, then a step up, then a move across to the programme where she actually thrived. She was SIAC Newcomer of the Year in her first Spring Hill season and All-Conference Second Team the next, at a small Division II school most European families have never heard of. Her academic honours (NJCAA Academic All-American, CSC Academic All-District twice) sit right next to the basketball on the same page.
That note was written for the whole collection rather than for this page. Where it points at other examples — junior-college routes, Division II routes — it means the 108 routes documented here, not anything on this page; where it says what the page should do, it is addressing whoever writes it.
This set has not been through the balancing pass, so it may over-represent Division I.
What we could not confirm
These are the checking pass’s own notes, copied without editing. They address the person writing this page, which is why some are phrased as instructions. They are published because a list of what we removed is worth more than an assurance that we checked.
What the second pass removed or corrected
- CORRECTED: the previous draft said she was still listed on the 2025-26 Spring Hill roster. She is not. We fetched that roster and read all thirteen names; she is absent. Her career record on that site ends with 2024-25.
- CORRECTED: Arkansas Tech's affiliation is now confirmed first-party as NCAA Division II, Great American Conference.
What is still unknown
- Grayson College's own athletics domain (graysonathletics.com) is now a parked domain for sale and returns nothing. The Grayson seasons come from her Spring Hill bio; the junior-college division comes from a Wikipedia list under the school's former name. NJCAA divisions vary by sport, so prefer the plain phrase 'junior college' over 'NJCAA Division I' for this leg.
- The NJCAA division is not stated for her two-year college, and the three divisions differ on athletic scholarships.
One further note in our file is not published here. A note is withheld when it states a date of birth or an age, names a relative, or is an internal editorial instruction about which records to keep.
Researcher’s own rating: 90 out of 100. This is the checking agent’s self-assessment, not a measurement. Across the 110 records it runs from 62 to 93, so the source count above it tells you more.

Athlavia had no involvement with Marta Duda. We did not advise, represent or place her, and we do not know her.
This page describes a public sporting record: where she played, at what level, and what published sources say about that. It carries no photograph, no date of birth and no contact details, and we do not report anything about her health beyond what her own sources state and what the route requires.
If you are Marta Duda, or represent her, and want anything here corrected or this page removed, write to support@athlavia.com and we will act on it.
This set has not been through the balancing pass, so it may over-represent Division I.
110 routes, 44 countries, 32 through a junior or community college, 36 never played NCAA Division I — so you can see whether this record is typical of the set or unusual within it.
