2024-25 Women's Basketball Schedule - South Dakota State University Athletics

The official 2024-25 Women's Basketball schedule for the South Dakota State University Jackrabbits

gojacks.com

The Jackrabbits schedule was released and they did not skimp on P5 (P4?) competition. The face Creighton, Wisconsin, Oregon, Georgia Tech, Duke, and Texas!

The team always does their best to have a challenging schedule for their players. Really respect the effort they put in to making it happen.

Preseason Hammon award watch list.

Love seeing Rachel Rose. Wasn’t sure if her team , Wofford, is big enough to qualify as “ mid major.

Does mid major mean everyone in D-1 who is not P-5?

Not sure but that's how I've interpreted it since becoming a NCAAW fan.

I used to hear the term low major, but can't recall hearing that designation for a while now.

And note that I consider basketball as having a P-5 with the BE as number 5

That's giving A LOT of respect to Gonzaga based off of reputation. They are in rebuild mode with only 1 returning starter.

Seeing Oregon St. and Washington St. on this list just feels so wrong.

I get that it's an early meaningless poll but SDSU at #9 with everyone returning and Utah State being on the list with them finishing 5-25 last season is just lazy.

Hey -- UConn's Ines Bettencourt transferred to Gonzaga. I'm sure that explains their thinking.

That must be it.

They've replaced key players before and kept on rolling, so maybe it's not that crazy. Ejim, the one returning starter, is a nice building block.

I was thinking maybe UNLV was a little bit low, but looks like they are replacing most of their main contributors as well.

What other players or teams from the mid-major conferences are you looking forward to seeing.

In the Big 12, Iowa State and in the ACC, Duke.

No Ejim from Gonzaga? That is just CRAZY.

I Talk Hoops is relatively new to the NCAAW/WNBA per their Twitter handle. Take their insights with a grain of salt.

The Naismith Awards group knows what's up.

Looking forward to seeing how Fairfield does this year. They also have a Canadian recruit I'm a fan of in Cyanne John. Had been targeted by quite a few P4 schools until she suffered back to back season ending injuries and lost a season due to COVID. Personally I think she's paired with a coach who will get the best out of her.

She looked good. Athletic and active. Goes by Cyanne Coe, now.

4pts 5r 2blk and 1a (nice pass) in 12 minutes.

Thanks for the update. Missed the game yesterday. Not surprised she changed her last name to her mother's.

Saw her develop since she was a kid. She's played up in age most of the time and never looked out of place. Was a two sport athlete playing hockey for a while too.

SOuth Dakota State looking solid as usual. Beat Creighton and Wisconsin. Next 3 games are against P5 schools (Duke, GaTech and Oregon), so they have a shot at getting in/near the top 25

They're in the Coaches Poll top 25 this week. I'm REALLY looking forward to seeing them vs. Duke Sunday. Used to be all the Summit League games were on the non-pay ESPN app, but now they're on ESPN+. I can't quite bring myself to pony up for it, but that may just be a matter of time.

30 points/12 rebounds for Jordyn Jenkins today in UTSA's win over UTEP. 10-13 from the floor and 10-12 from the charity stripe.
