SWITCHING POSITIONS
She played as a libero in the national team for a period of time in 2017. "I got an offer from coach [Zoran] Terzic if I could help our team in this position and I willingly agreed. I am always proud to be a part of the team. I love my country and if it is needed I can even play as a middle blocker. It was not a big problem for me to play as a libero, but I missed a bit spiking, serving and blocking, but I enjoyed this time." (przegladsportowy.pl, 09 Oct 2017)
