As a Senior in 2013
Pantovic saw action in six matches during the 2013 season and her ability to play every front row position proved valuable as she recorded a season-high two blocks in CU’s win over top-ranked Washington (10/4). She spent most of her time as a right side hitter to put up a big block, but had the ability to be moved to a middle blocker to put up a bigger block for the Buffs’ defense. Pantovic was awarded the Heart of the Buffalo by the team for her continued dedication towards the team and program as a whole.
As a Junior In 2012
Pantovic came back from injury and had a breakout season in 2012. She played in 29 matches and started in 11 of those at the right side. Pantovic recorded a season-high 11 kills in the five-set come-from-behind win against Arizona State (10/12) and also hit .474 in that match with just two errors on 19 attacks. She was third on the team in blocks with 53 (51 assists and two solos). Pantovic posted her season-high of eight blocks, seven assists and one solo, against Sam Houston State (8/25). She recorded 105 kills, 38 digs and hit .140.
