After a playing career that culminated in All-American honors last fall, Pavle Dundjer returns to the UIC soccer program in 2008 as an undergraduate assistant coach. Dundjer was a four-year letterwinner for the Flames from 2004-2007, scoring 24 goals and assisting on 13 others for 61 career points in 78 matches. He was the first player in Horizon League history to garner All-Horizon League First Team honors in each of his four seasons. In 2007 Dundjer was named to the NSCAA/adidas All-America Third Team after scoring five goals and dishing out three helpers while leading the Flames to the program[apos]s first-ever trip to the NCAA Tournament Elite Eight. The 2007 team co-captain also earned NSCAA/adidas All-Great Lakes Region First Team accolades, marking the third time in his illustrious career that he was named to an All-Region squad. A native of Becmen in the Serbian capital of Belgrade, Dundjer is working on finishing his degree requirements for a bachelor of science in movement sciences. PAVLE DUNDJER[apos]S PLAYING CAREER
