  "account": "Decelise Champion's remarkable performance, with an impressive 17 kills and a hitting percentage of .552, was the star of Wisconsin's decisive 3-set sweep over Maryland in Madison on October 16. Champion's tireless work on the court, including her precise placement and powerful attacks, kept Maryland at bay even during Wisconsin's brief struggles. Her six kills in the third set secured the win, and her teammate Audrey Flanagan, who took a well-deserved break, was noticeably absent. The Badgers' defensive improvements, particularly in the third set, contributed to their success, as Maryland's attack errors skyrocketed to .048, the lowest percentage of the match. Wisconsin's service line, however, struggled, with 11 service errors and only two aces, highlighting the need for improvement in this area.",
  "summary": "Wisconsin volleyball swept Maryland with 17 kills (and a crucial service run) from 17-year-old opposite hitter Decelise Champion.",
