spiuvb

For the second consecutive summer, recent IU volleyball graduate Jazzmine McDonald will represent Team USA in international play.

The former Hoosier has been selected to play for her country in the upcoming World University Games, August 19-30 in Taipei City, Taiwan.

Last summer, McDonald represented USA Volleyball on the Collegiate National Team at the Global Challenge in Pula, Croatia. The Americans won the gold medal.

After recently graduating in the spring of 2017 with a degree in Exercise Science, McDonald looks to continue her volleyball career with Team USA. The Indianapolis native finished her IU career with 513 kills and 241 blocks.

As a senior, she played in all 33 matches and 113 of the 114 total sets in the 2016 season. McDonald recorded the second highest hitting percentage for a season in school history at .364 percent.

She also led the Hoosiers in hitting percentage at .323 as a junior. Her .294 career hitting percentage is good enough for second in IU’s all-time record books.
