About Nikolija
Expert Analysis
Chris Fitzgerald | Prep Dig Scout
A pure gamer. Watching Bulatovic at nationals was exciting to see as she was at another level running the show as the setter for 1st Alliance 16 Gold. She knew how to find the one on one match up for her attackers, but was impressive to me was her all around game. Beyond putting up a great ball, she is so solid with her defense, blocking, and knew when to attack. Her athleticism and physicality at the net is sneaky, teams can never relax on her. She will head to Iowa following her prep career where they are starting to build a pipeline to Chicagoland with multiple players on the roster who played in the metro area.

Nikolija had an awesome weekend at the Gauntlet. She is so good at finding her middles, which keeps opposing blockers honest. She is also very offensive and is not afraid to put the ball over on two, especially when she is in the front row. Nikolija is one of the top recruits in her class and it showed in her play at the Gauntlet.
