Senior Spotlight - Jenna Petrovic

Senior Spotlight – Jenna Petrovic

Jenna Petrovic, of Winslow, Maine, will be graduating this month with a degree in Biology from UMA. Jenna has been a member of the Moose women’s basketball team for the past two seasons as a guard.  Her tenacious defense and midrange jump shot made her an asset on both ends of the court. Jenna added so much value off the court as well.  She is a standout student in the classroom and over the two years she was on the basketball team, she was very involved in maintaining a positive team chemistry.

Coach Jim Seavey had this to say about coaching Petrovic in her senior season, “I have so much respect for Jenna as she finds a way to balance her academic workload, her commitment to the Moose basketball team, and her work. Jenna is a very competitive individual in whatever she does academically or athletically and always has her teammates back.”

Petrovic was also part of the women’s track and field program in the inaugural 2019 season where she competed in the 400m event. Coach Gilpatrick had this to add about Jenna, “Jenna is fiercely competitive, and she takes that approach to managing a very demanding schedule between work and school. I expect her to take that same approach and energy into whatever she tackles next after graduation.”
