Off The Court: Jelena Sunjic

Throughout the spring, BGSUFalcons.com will help you to get to know the student-athletes on the BGSU Volleyball team better. After graduating just two seniors from the 2014 Falcons and having none in 2015, the team has a strong foundation for success in the near future. Despite an injury that forced her out of almost the entire non-conference slate and the first two conference matches, Jelena Sunjic was named first team All-MAC. She averaged 3.00 kills per set and hit at a team-high .246 clip for the season.
