  "account": "Ava Hissong, a senior at Boyne City, has shown an ability to embrace change during the volleyball season. Initially a right-side hitter, Hissong switched to outside hitter after new coaches, led by Shannon Flippin, took over the Rambler program. Flippin praised Hissong's passing ability, which has been a valuable asset. At the service line, Hissong has demonstrated adaptability, even serving short when asked, resulting in an ace. Hissong credits her coaches for pushing her beyond her comfort zone, contributing to her growing confidence. As Boyne City returns to Division 3 for the postseason, Hissong remains focused on the present, aiming for success in each upcoming game.",
  "summary": "Ava Hissong has leaned into every change that's come this season and the hard work in doing so is paying off in a big way for the Rambler senior.",
