Montenegrin outside hitter Jelena Cvijovic is set to make her Premier Volleyball League comeback after officially signing with Galeries Tower for the 2025 Reinforced Conference this October.
Cvijovic last played in the league during the 2022 Reinforced Conference, when she suited up for Chery Tiggo and helped the Crossovers secure a fourth-place finish after falling to Creamline in the bronze medal series.
“Big move. Big heart. Please welcome Jelena Cvijovic to the Highriser family! A new chapter begins with the #HighriseHustle,” the team announced in a Facebook post.
Since her Chery Tiggo stint, the 6-foot-1 outside hitter has played for GS Panionios in Greece, AEL Limassol in Cyprus, Club Sportif Sfaxien in Tunisia, and most recently, EA Larissa in Greece.
Cvijovic will be a key addition for the Highrisers as they begin a new chapter under head coach Godfrey Okumu, who takes over from Lerma Giron. She will also bolster a promising young core that includes Julia Coronel, Jean Asis, Jhewel Encarnacion, Ysa Jimenez, and France Ronquillo.
