Brooke Wyckoff (2011) - Florida State Athletics Hall of Fame

Brooke Wyckoff

Induction:
2011

Brooke Wychoff's jersey #21 already hangs in the rafters above FSU's basketball court and one of the all-time greatest players now enters the Hall of Fame.

Wyckoff was one of the top high school players in the country but chose to leave West Chester, Ohio to play for Sue Semrau and Florida State. She made an immediate impact setting an FSU record with 80 blocked shots as a freshman in 1997.

She went on to earn All-ACC honors as a sophomore and junior and capped her senior season (2001) with first team All-ACC honors as well as All-America honors. She was also FSU's only four-time Academic All-ACC performer and received an ACC postgraduate scholarship.

Wyckoff scored 1,350 points over her storied FSU career and finished as the second best shot blocker the Seminoles have ever produced with 209. She grabbed 804 career rebounds and was also ranked among FSU's all-time Top 10. Wyckoff's role in returning FSU to women's basketball prominence cannot be overstated as she led FSU to its first winning season in nine years as a senior and into the NCAA Tournament for the first time in a decade that same season.

Wyckoff went on to play eight years in the WNBA with the Orlando Miracle, Connecticut Sun and Chicago Sky. She returned to FSU as an assistant on Sue Semrau's staff before taking over as head coach.
