From the coaching staff…

Head coachÂ
Jozsef Forman
"Jelena comes to Coastal from a volleyball hotbed in Subotica, Serbia. She is from a very supportive family that is relishing the fact that Jelena is coming to live out her American dream by studying and playing volleyball at Coastal Carolina University. It takes a strong, never-give-up personality to move halfway around the world at her age and Jelena's resilience will make her a champion. With her six-rotation skill set, Jelena gives us many different offensive and defensive options at both pins."
