A dependable rim-protecting forward with proven rebounding value at Ball State
Lisa Rusche stands out as a physical, high-effort forward whose calling cards were **shot-blocking**, **rebounding**, and efficient interior finishing; Ball State lists her among the program’s all-time leaders in blocked shots (99) and rebounds (510), and a 2007 MAC weekly honor noted she averaged 20 points, 8 rebounds, 3 blocks, and 2 steals while shooting 75% from the field[5][3]. She fits best on teams that value toughness, defensive activity, and frontcourt reliability, though the available sources reflect her college career rather than current-season production[5].
