Suzan Sisman '21 Recruiting Profile

I am originally from Denmark, just finished my junior year here at Young Harris College. Basketball has been my passion since I was six years old, and throughout my journey, I’ve competed at the highest levels in Denmark, including the best women’s league as one of the youngest players and representing my country on the U18 and U19 national teams. I also had the honor of playing in the 3X3 FIBA tournament in Romania in 2023 and was selected for the group in the summer of 2024 as well. My freshman year at Muskegon Community College was a defining season—I led my team to multiple championships, including Conference, State, and regional titles, culminating in a strong showing at the National Championships with a major upset victory. Followed by a great sophomore year for me as well. As a player, I bring leadership, defensive intensity, and an aggressive offensive mindset. I take pride in full-court pressure, making plays on both ends, and being a vocal leader. This past season has been a rollercoaster, filled with unexpected challenges. I started the year as a key player, performing at a high level in preseason, but as the season progressed, my role changed dramatically. I’m seeking a fresh opportunity. I’m more motivated than ever to find a program where I can contribute, lead, and make an impact. I bring experience, resilience, and a relentless work ethic. Being 24 years of age with a whole lot of experience of every aspect of being a student athlete at this level, I come with the vet-mentality.

High School: Marselisborg Gymnasium, Aarhus, Denmark.

Freshmen year: Muskegon Community College 

Sophomore year: McCook Community College 

Junior year: Young Harris College 

Basketball is obviously a drive of mine and very important to me, however, school is important to me as well. I always made school my first priority, and my entire life I have been used to the combination of both basketball and school. I love learning both on and off the court. Basketball have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, so my love for the game goes deep. 

The love for the game is something that I would like to give back to younger generations; therefore, I have also voluntarily coach children at the club where I lived in Aabyhoej, Denmark. Doing so, gives me a different perspective of the game, which is helpful personally on the court as well.
