<p>It's 4<sup>th</sup> of July weekend which means the fireworks will be out in full force throughout the three-day weekend.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>When it comes to volleyball, the state of Michigan has some outsides that really know how to bring a similar level of explosiveness to the net. Here's 10 outsides that know how to put on a fireworks display of their own.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='442999' first='Olivia' last='Berishaj'], Sr. Eisenhower/Legacy</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>You know when the set comes cleanly in Berishaj's direction, you're in for a real fireworks display. She's got a tremendous last gear to her swing that generates a ton of explosiveness and leaves bystanders in awe of what they just saw.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='587564' first='Lexi' last='Coleman'], So. South Lyon East/Legacy</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>You don't become one of the best in your class for the country without being able to bring the thunder. Coleman's got endless power and the sound of her hitting the ball definitely resembles the pops you'll here this holiday.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='569773' first='Skylar' last='Ignash'], Jr. Cass City/Michigan Elite</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Ignash's combination of length and athleticism lead her to being one of the most powerful strikers in her class. She can get well above the blockers and knows how to turn on the ball to create a thunderous explosion on the floor.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='776808' first='Brynn' last='Johnson'], So. Marshall/FaR Out</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Johnson was a dominant freshman for Marshall and is only amping up her intensity with her swing. Blockers aren't going to be rewarded by trying to stop her fierce attacks this year.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='442987' first='Kate' last='Kalczynski'], Sr. Mercy/Legacy</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>One of the most well-balanced players in the state, people can sometimes forget just what kind of power Kalczynski can dial up. She's got the ability to great big fireworks at the net, and usually does it at the time her team needs it most.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='839825' first='Camille' last='Robinson'], Sr. Harper Creek/Midwest Select</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Robinson drops the hammer down and then unleashes a ferocious roar that make her one of the most intimidating outsides in the state. Opponents need to make sure they stand back and don't get hurt by the debris.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='569772' first='Lauren' last='Sheldon'], Jr. Stoney Creek/Legacy</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Sheldon has tremendous arm speed and a violent follow through to create a lot of big-pop kills at the net. When the ball gets set her way, it's like the fuse is lit and we are just waiting for the explosion to happen.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='584598' first='Allison' last='Stakoe'], Jr. Bloomfield Hills/Legacy</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Stakoe seems to have a vendetta with volleyballs because she does her best to take out any frustration she has on them at the net. She's got a picture-perfect swing that can unleash a tremendous amount of power on the ball. It's a sight to see.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='467901' first='Mallory' last='Wandel'], Sr. Rockford/MVA</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>One of the fiercest competitors you will find, Wandel doesn't hesitate to unleash the fireworks whenever she can. Her powerful follow through is only aided by her tremendous intensity.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='462086' first='Mallory' last='Woiteshek'], Grand Haven</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>You don't find many 6'3” hitters that can move and generate the kind of power Woiteshek does on the outside. She gets over the top of the ball to put it down at sharp angles in the blink of an eye.</p>
