SDSU’s Selland garnered TicketSmarter #SummitWBB Peak Performer award

South Dakota State’s Myah Selland takes home first weekly honor of the season, ninth of career

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – South Dakota State redshirt senior Myah Selland earned this week’s TicketSmarter Summit League Women’s Basketball Peak Performer of the Week accolade, League officials released Monday. Selland averaged 27.0 ppg, 6.0 rpg, 3.0 apg, 2.5 spg and 1.0 bpg to help power South Dakota State to a pair of double-digit wins and help the Jacks remain undefeated in League action through six contests.
 
The Jackrabbits bested a previously unbeaten North Dakota State squad Thursday downing the Bison 94-63. In the victory, Selland packed the stat sheet finishing with 24 points, eight rebounds, five assists, two steals and a block while drawing seven fouls. She set the momentum for the game early for the Jacks, putting up eight of their 13 points to help the team to a 20-point advantage less than five minutes into the game.
 
In South Dakota State’s 105-72 win over North Dakota, Selland dropped a career-high tying 30 points on 10-for-12 shooting to go along with seven 3-pointers. Her and teammate Paiton Burckhard accounted for 20 for the Jackrabbits’ first 30 points in the contest.
 
With her 30 points against the Fighting Hawks, Selland has reached the 1,900 career point mark and now ranks second in South Dakota State history and eighth in Summit League history for career points.
