Suzanne Grossnickle brought size, toughness, and interior production to Ball State
Grossnickle was a physical 6-foot-2 forward for Ball State who gave the Cardinals rim protection, rebounding, and efficient interior scoring, highlighted by a 2010-11 junior season of 5.1 points and 3.5 rebounds per game and a career-high 16 points with nine rebounds against Wright State.[1] She also showed real versatility with a season-best three blocks at Illinois State and enough reliability to earn a captaincy, which signals toughness and trust from the staff.[1] For a team needing a blue-collar frontcourt presence rather than a pure high-usage scorer, her profile fits as a steady, defense-first forward.[1]
