Sullivan Earns Spot On Big Ten Weekly Honor Roll
11/24/2025 2:00:00 PM | Women's Basketball
Averaged a double-double (23.0 ppg, 10.0 rpg) across two wins last week
EVANSTON, Ill. (November 24, 2025) – Fresh off a week in which she averaged a double-double across a pair of Wildcat wins, Northwestern University senior Grace Sullivan (Antioch, Ill./Carmel Catholic/Bucknell) has been recognized on the Big Ten Conference's Weekly Honor Roll, which was released by the league office on Monday. This marks the second time this season that Sullivan has been honored.
Sullivan continued her scorching start to the 2025-26 season last week, putting up 23.0 points per game and 10.0 rebounds as Northwestern picked up wins over DePaul and Cleveland State to move to 5-0 for the first time since the 2019-20 campaign. The 6-foot-4 forward shot a red-hot 61 percent (22-of-36) from the field.
Sullivan started her week with one of the top all-around performances of her collegiate career in the Wildcats' 79-72 victory at DePaul on Monday afternoon. The Antioch, Ill., native finished just two points shy of her career high with a game-best 26 points on 13-of-20 shooting, in addition to nine rebounds, four assists, two blocks, and three steals as the 'Cats earned their first road win over their rival to the south since the 2014-15 season.
In Friday's 75-68 win over Cleveland State, Sullivan again led the Wildcat attack, closing her night with 20 points and 11 rebounds en route to her second double-double of the season.
Through the season's opening five games, Sullivan ranks inside the top 10 on the conference leaderboard in scoring (5th; 21.0 ppg), field goal percentage (9th; 58.0%), rebounding (3rd; 9.2 rpg), and blocks (8th; 1.4 bpg).
Northwestern jets south at the end of the week for a pair of games as part of the Elevance Health Fort Myers Tip-Off in Fort Myers, Fla. The 'Cats open play at the event on Friday, November 28 against Abilene Christian at 10 a.m. CT ahead of a 12:30 p.m. CT tilt with Missouri on Saturday, November 29. Both matchups will be televised on ION.
