Redshirt junior Anais Ruyssen from Wayne State University's women's tennis team has been awarded her second consecutive GLIAC Commissioner's Award. The 2023-24 CSC Women's Tennis Academic All-American of the Year received this honor on Tuesday.

Ruyssen, a First Team Academic All-American, is only the third student-athlete in Wayne State's history to be named Academic All-American of the Year in the 72-year history of the CSC (formerly CoSIDA) Academic All-America program. She joins Cedric Drenth for men's tennis in 2023 and Catherine Leix, a Hall of Fame member for women's swimming, who was recognized in 2012.

In addition to being a Third Team Academic All-American in 2023, Ruyssen is also a two-time GLIAC Player of the Year for both 2022 and 2024. This season, she led Wayne State University to several achievements: an NCAA Championship quarterfinals appearance for the second consecutive year, an NCAA Midwest Regional crown, a GLIAC Tournament title, and a GLIAC Regular-Season Championship.

Ruyssen has been honored as a First Team All-GLIAC player three times across singles and doubles categories in 2022, 2023, and again in both disciplines in 2024. This season she recorded a singles record of 20-9 at No.1 position and achieved a doubles record of 26-13 when paired with Marta Komar. Ruyssen ended her campaign ranked No.3 regionally for singles and No.30 nationally according to ITA rankings. In doubles competition with Komar, they were ranked first in the Midwest region and eighteenth nationally.

Over her three seasons playing for Wayne State's Green & Gold team, Ruyssen has accumulated impressive records: a singles tally of 66 wins against 22 losses—54 wins coming from the No.1 slot—and a doubles record standing at seventy victories against thirty-one defeats with forty-nine wins as top entry players; these results place her seventh all-time within program history concerning single matches won while eighth overall regarding duo triumphs achieved alongside partners such as Komar during competitive outings together throughout recent years representing their school proudly under
