Aislinn Konig‘Be Unforgettable’–ACC Nation Podcast - a podcast by ACC Nation, LLC

Our special guest on ACC Nation Podcast/Radio this week is former NC State guard Aislinn Konig, perhaps better known as'Ace'. We had the opportunity to Zoom chat with Konig from her home in British Columbia about her basketball journey. It's a fascinating story that is far from over. The bump in the road that COVID-19 presents is merely a new challenge to be overcome. After listening to our conversation we think you'll come away with the same impression that we did. Konig is up for the task at hand.



By now you know that our Jim Quist has a slightly different take on interviewing people. He's a bit more interested in the personal story as opposed to, say, the stats. It's a good way to learn more about an athlete, media figure or whoever the guest might be.
