Meet Džemila Hadžić: The First Panther to Notch 100 Kills and Digs in 2019

Over the weekend, junior Du017eemila Hadu017eiu0107 became the first Panther this season to notch 100 kills and 100 digs. Prior to this season, the Bosnian had compiled 129 kills in her first two years in a Georgia State uniform.

Hadu017eiu0107 began playing volleyball when she was eight years old. She continued to play throughout her adolescence. When it came time for Hadu017eiu0107 to look into colleges, she was interested in the opportunity to play and continue her education, which is an opportunity more commonly found in America than in her home country.

Since many American collegiate volleyball coaches do not recruit in Bosnia, Hadu017eiu0107 had to put in extra effort to play volleyball in the States.
