COACH SUE: WHAT THE PLAYERS ARE SAYING
“I’ve said it a million times before and will say it at least that many times in the future – you’re the greatest! You’re always so refreshing and down-right FUN! Thank you for everything you’ve done to guide me to where I am today.” - Brooke Wyckoff (Alum), WNBA Chicago Sky, Assistant Coach
“Very very very very energetic!” - Christian Hunnicutt
“Funny n energetic” - Courtney Ward
“Crazy, energetic, and cares about the program” - Alexa Deluzio
“She’s awesome!” - Chelsea Davis
“Coach Sue is an amazing woman of great character! She is a great all around coach because of her knowledge and passion for the game; but what stands out to me the most is her heart for her players(in and out of the program); and for people (in general) that she comes into contact with on a daily basis. She has done a phenomenal job with the FSU Women’s basketball program and I can say that I am proud to have had her as a coach and now as a mentor and a friend. You couldn’t find a more genuine person-than that in Coach Sue Semrau. Go Noles!” - Ganiyat Adeduntan ’06, Nurse
“x’s and o’s seem to be the most important part of coaching, but its only half of what it takes to be successful as a coach. The other half is being able to lead, and get the most out of the players as a player and a person! Coach Sue really understands that, which is why she is great and has the Seminoles rising to the top!!!!” - Roneeka Hodges ’05, WNBA Minnesota Lynx
“I came here to do great things and those things are already getting accomplished. Myself individually and all of us as a unit have done so many amazing things that I wasn’t even expecting so soon. And that has a lot to do with our leader…you’re amazing!” - Cierra Bravard ’12
