2012 South Dakota State Women’s SoccerThe seniors reflect on the “Jackrabbit Family”

“‘A champion is someone who does not settle for that day’s practice, that day’s competi-tion, that day’s performance. They are always striving to be better. They don’t live in the past (unknown).’ Being a Jackrabbit has taught me that I am a part of something bigger; that I am a part of a team. And if we work together, we will go far because we are all striving for the same goal; conference champions and NCAA College Cup.”-Tina Ehrett (below)

“Being a Jackrabbit is being part of one big family. SDSU has been an awesome experience for me all around. I’ve made some awesome friends and memories and would trade my time here for anything.”-Hannah Phillips (above)

“Being a part of the Jackrabbit soccer team has taught me so many things in the short four years I have been here. But what I think is most important is how we are a part of something so much bigger than simply ourselves. Everything we do, all the hard work, late nights, and early mornings are all for a bigger purpose. It teaches us that with perseverance and honest character we can accomplish anything we put our minds too, even after one chapter ends and another begins.”-Brittany Sipp (below)

“It is always great to have a big senior class of student-athletes that have progressed through our program for four years. This group of play-ers came into our program at a critical time and have really helped us maintain a high level of success on the soccer field during their careers. There is great diversity in their personali-ties, backgrounds and playing styles, but they always come together for the betterment of the team.”-Head coach Lang Wedemeyer


2012 South Dakota State Women’s SoccerThe seniors reflect on the “Jackrabbit Family”

“South Dakota State provided me with not only a great education, but also pushed me to reach my full potential in athletics. The Jackrabbit family truly cares about life after college and wants us to succeed. The key values that SDSU instilled in me set me up for life after soccer and I look forward to spreading those values for years to come.”-Christa Nyblom (above)

Being a jackrabbit means not only being part of a great soccer team but also part of a family. Be-ing part of this family had made me grow not only on the field but as person. It has prepared me for the real world after my time spent here at State. Putting on the yellow and blue color will stay with me forever and will always be proud to look back on my experience at SDSU and be thankful that they let me into their SDSU family. Getting to know each and every one of the players that I have played with over the last couple years will always be like sisters to me no matter how far we are from another and looking forward to seeing them in the future and seeing what they have ac-complished in their lives. GO BIG , GO BLUE, GO JACKS!!!-Stéphanie Bérubé (right)

“To me, being a Jackrabbit soccer player means joining a team that works hard to compete on and off of the field. We do this with full dedica-tion and belief in our coaches and each other. It is a close family atmosphere that has impacted my life forever.”-Courtney Higgins (above)

“Everyday matters, do the work. Everyday since I first set foot on campus, I have been impacted. Everyday truly matters and its allowed me to be the best I can be. Being a Jackrabbit soccer player allowed me to grow and mature as a player, student and woman. This program pro-vided me an incredible life experience that not everyone has the opportunity to do. Therefore, I am extremely thankful for the privilege of being part of something bigger than myself. I will continue my life in a positive way from the experiences I received at SDSU.”-Megan Huegli (below)

2012 Jackrabbit Season Preview


Outlook Following its best regular season conference finish as a Summit League member, the South Dakota State women’s soccer team tries for a repeat performance as league champion. SDSU aims to improve on its league tournament performance, however, and earn a second trip to the NCAA College Cup. The Jackrabbits last made the NCAA tournament in 2008, in which the team recorded its first postseason victory in school history. “I think we had one of our most talented teams last year and we had a very good season,” head coach Lang Wedemeyer said. “We will miss those seven seniors, but we are excited to see how our current players will step up this fall.” The season started slowly as SDSU made its way through a difficult non-conference schedule. After a loss in the home opener to Creighton, the Jacks posted a 2-3 record over a five-game road trip, which included a loss to No. 22 Minnesota. The team turned around its fortunes in its final four non-conference games, entering The Summit League schedule at 4-5-1. The Jacks opened conference play in record-setting fashion, posting a consecutive scoreless minutes streak of 832:23 en route to a 7-0-1 conference record. The regular season finale was a conference championship of sorts, as either SDSU or North Dakota State would finish atop the standings depending on the outcome. The Jacks led by two goals early in the second half and won by a score of 3-1. SDSU finished the regular season with an 8-0-1 conference record, its best in school history, its first regular season championship in The Summit League and the No. 1 seed in the conference championships. At The Summit League Championships, the Jacks faced the No. 4 seed and tournament host Oakland. The Golden Grizzlies were the lone blemish on the SDSU record, earning a tie in Brookings midway through the conference schedule. Oakland struck early in the game and made the goal stand, as the Jacks did not find the equalizer and were bounced out of the tournament with a 1-0 loss. SDSU finished the season at 12-6-2. Although the team graduated Offensive Player of the Year Kayla Braffet along with six other seniors, four of which were all-conference selections, it returns five starters and 12 letterwinners. The Jacks also add 10 newcomers to the team. “Every team and every class is different,” said Wedemeyer. “But year in and year out, there are roles within the team that are vital to that season’s success. Our returning players have worked hard to step up and take ownership of many of these essential roles, but with their own personalities. With our new, incoming players, we are looking for them to feed off of our positive energy and feel comfortable enough to make impacts right away.” SDSU has many new faces taking on key roles in the upcoming season. Many players have game experience, but have not had the opportunity to make an impact. The 2012 team is focused on having continued success in the regular season, while pushing toward the postseason.

Forwards For the second straight season, the Jackrabbits graduated The Summit League Offensive Player of the Year in Kayla Braffet, who is fourth on the SDSU career scoring leaderboard and tied-for-first in career assist scoring. In addition, the Jacks graduated Kelsey Ferguson, who is 10th in career scoring and first in career game-winning goals. Ferguson was an all-Summit League second team selection. Despite these losses, the team returns offensive players who came into their own last season, including Megan Kingston. Kingston, a junior, played in 19 games for the Jacks with 12 starts. She finished the season tied for third in assists (3), fourth in shots on goal (11), fifth in points (7), fifth in shots (20) and tied-for-fifth in goals (2). “Megan Kingston really started to come into her own at the end of last fall,” Wedemeyer said. “We will lean on her to take on players on the flank and cause havoc. Brittany Sipp has shown she can be a contributor from the center forward position. Jordyn Smith and Stephanie Krzywania both did well at times last season. We will be looking for some of the new players to step up and make contributions right away with Stacy Guijarro and Diana Potterveld leading the way.” Sipp played in 16 games for the Jacks, posting one assist and attempting three shots, one on goal. Smith saw action in seven games, while Krzywania played in 10 games with three shots, two on goal. Kristin Ford also played forward for SDSU last season in 18 games with one start. Ford scored one goal on eight shots, four on goal. The newcomers at this position include Guijarro, a junior, as well as Potterveld, a freshman. Both bring additional skills to the position and will make an immediate impact in the Jackrabbit lineup.

Junior forward Megan Kingston was fifth on the team in points last season.

Midfielders The Jacks graduated two midfielders from last season’s team, including 2011 captain and all-Summit League first team selection Cori Bonte. Bonte started all 20 games for SDSU, recording two goals and two assists on 24 shots and nine shots on goal. Returners at the midfield position include 2012 captain senior Christa Nyblom and junior Darci Miller. Nyblom played in all 20 games and finished the season second in shots on goal (21), tied-for-second in goals (5), third in points (11) and third in shots (36). Nyblom was an all-Summit League second team selection. Miller saw action in 18 games, scoring one goal and recording four assists. “Returning Christa Nyblom and Darci Miller gives us two fantastic mids to build around,” said Wedemeyer. “Hannah Phillips did well in there and again, we will be looking to some of our incoming players like Alyssa Brazil and Katie McNeary to make an impact. We also have Caylee Costello coming back who can play in the midfield or in the back.” Phillips saw action in 13 games for SDSU, attempting one shot, which was on goal. Costello also played in 13 games, but started six, as well. She recorded one assist and attempted five shots, one on goal.

Defenders Perhaps the deepest position on the SDSU roster, the Jacks return three of four starters from one of the best defensive lines in school history. Stéphanie Bérubé, Courtney Higgins and Megan Huegli anchor a back line that posted a consecutive scoreless minutes streak of 832:23, the 12th longest streak in NCAA history. The Jacks graduated all-Summit League first team selection Kelli Herman, who started 19 games last season. Bérubé, a senior and all-Summit League second team selection, started 19 games for the Jacks. She scored one goal on four shots, and the lone goal was a game-winning goal. “Although we lost a lot from here, we are probably deepest at this position,” said Wedemeyer. “We return Stéphanie Bérubé, Courtney Higgins and Megan Huegli; all starters. And we are loaded with others in newcomers Dani Patterson, Sheridon Newberry, Delaney Ratcliffe, Megan Graf and Bri Ismale.” Higgins started 18 games for SDSU with a couple starts at forward, as well. She scored one goal on 10 shots, five on goal. Huegli started the first 13 games for the Jacks before being sidelined by injury for the remainder of the season. Huegli recorded two assists during her time on the field.

Goalkeepers SDSU graduated its starting goalkeeper in Kat Donovan, an all-Summit League first team selection last season. Donovan posted the 12th-longest consecutive scoreless minutes streak in NCAA history (832:23), a streak which spanned the entire conference schedule. In one season as the starting keeper for the Jacks, Donovan climbed the career leaderboards. She ranks second in goals against average, tied-for-second in shutouts (11), third in victories in goal (12) and fourth in both save percentage and minutes played. Despite losing a key piece of the defense, the Jacks return 2011 starter Elisa Stamatakis and second-year transfer Tina Ehrett. “Elisa Stamatakis and Tina Ehrett split time this spring and both did well,” Wedemeyer said. “We also have newcomer Blaklee McMillen who will push the others as she acclimates.” Stamatakis currently ranks fourth on the all-time leaderboard for victories in goal (11) and shutouts (8) and sixth in minutes played. Neither Stamatakis nor Ehrett saw any action for the Jacks last season.

Schedule South Dakota State plays a 19-game schedule, which includes two exhibitions, for the 2012 season. The regular season schedule includes two NCAA College Cup qualifiers from last season in Georgia and Summit League foe Oakland. The Jackrabbits play eight Summit League conference games, including in-state rival South Dakota on Oct. 21 in Brookings and regular season runner-up North Dakota State on Sept. 29 in Fargo, N.D. The non-conference portion of the schedule features three Missouri Valley schools (Drake, Northern Iowa and Creighton), three Big Ten schools (Minnesota (exh.), Nebraska (exh.) and Wisconsin) and one team from the Horizon (Green Bay), Mountain West (UNLV), SEC (Georgia), Great West (North Dakota) and the Big 12 (Iowa State). The Jacks face both UNLV and Georgia for the first time in school history. “This is most likely the strongest schedule we have ever played top-to-bottom,” said Wedemeyer. “It is packed with big-name schools who have great programs and almost all of these teams have played in the NCAA tournament. Starting off with Minnesota and Nebraska (exhibitions) will be an early test for our team, but it will only get tougher as we move around the Midwest to take on talented team after talented team. We are excited to have a chance to face both UNLV and Georgia, two out-of-region teams that we will play in the Kansas Invitational. Hopefully all of these tough non-conference games will prepare the team for an increasingly difficult Summit League schedule.” By way of its regular season finish, SDSU hosts the four-team Summit League Championship on Nov. 2 and Nov. 4 in Brookings, S.D. The Jacks open the season on Aug. 8 in an exhibition game at home against Minnesota. Game time is set for 6 p.m. at Fishback Soccer Park. The regular season opens on Aug. 17 at Green Bay. The regular season home opener for SDSU is Aug. 31 vs. Drake.

Preseason Poll The South Dakota State women’s soccer team tabbed for second in the 2012 Summit League Women’s Soccer Preseason Poll. The Jacks received four of the nine first-place votes and finished with 59 total points, two points behind league-favorite Oakland. The vote consists of the league’s nine head coaches. SDSU finished second in the preseason poll for the fourth straight season, tying North Dakota State for second entering 2011. This season, the Jacks are alone in second by 12 points, followed by Kansas City (47) and NDSU (46). Fort Wayne, IUPUI, Western Illinois, Omaha and South Dakota round out the preseason poll. Only SDSU and OU received first-place votes. The discrepancy between first and last place is small compared to last season, however. This season, OU finished with 61 points, while Omaha and USD finished tied-for-eighth with 16, a 45-point difference. Last season, OU’s 77 points were 66 more than USD’s 11.

Senior midfielder Christa Nyblom leads the team into the 2012 season.

2012 Jackrabbit Coaching Staff


Last Season In 2011, South Dakota State earned its third regular season title in The Summit League, but first outright title. The Jacks finished alone atop the standings with an 8-0-1 record and the No. 1 seed in the conference tournament. The lone tie in league play came against Oakland. As a result of the previous year’s regular season standings, Oakland hosted the league tournament as the No. 4 seed. SDSU surrendered an early goal and could not close the gap as its season ended in the semifinals. The Jacks finished the season at 12-6-2.

Excellence Starts HereWhen starting a new program, many schools will allow for a grace period before evaluating the success of that program. South Dakota State University did not have to wait long before it was able to start compiling a list of accomplishments that its lone women’s soccer coach, Lang Wedemeyer, has amassed in his 12-year tenure at South Dakota State University. Wedemeyer built the Division II soccer program from the ground up and has led the Jackrabbits through a transition to Division I and a trip to the NCAA College, which included the first NCAA postseason victory for SDSU in the Division I era and the first time a Summit League team won a game at the College Cup. From The Ground UpEleven years ago, Wedemeyer started at SDSU with the task of building an NCAA Division II women’s soccer program. His first roster of 19 included just six women who had any collegiate experience, six freshmen, and a mix of seven others, including four that had played club soccer at SDSU in 1999. The roster was put together in just six months before the inexperienced Jackrabbit team took to the field for its inaugural season. In 2000, SDSU posted a 5-12-0 record, including a 1-8 record in the North Central Conference.

Youth Lead SDSU to Postseason BerthThe following season the Jacks welcomed a freshman class of 14 to its roster. Although the team was young in age, they were able to post the the first winning season in SDSU history as Wedemeyer marched his second-year program

into the North Central Conference’s four-team postseason tournament with a 13-6-1 record. For his efforts, Wedemeyer was named the North Central Conference Coach of the Year following his 2001 campaign. After finishing the 2002 season with a 10-8-0 record, SDSU missed the postseason, struggling with a 2-6-0 record through the conference portion of its schedule. In 2003, the Jacks rebounded with their third consecutive winning season. After posting an 8-5-6 overall record and a 2-2-3 record in NCC action, the Jacks were back in the postseason for the second time in three years. Behind the net-minding skills of senior Erin Miller, Wedemeyer’s team posted the fifth-lowest goals-against average in Division II. Miller later became the first player in SDSU history to be named North Central Conference Player of the Year. She was also the first Jackrabbit soccer player to be named an All-American, earning second team honors.

SDSU Makes Transition to Division IAfter leading the four-year-old program to a 36-31-7 record, South Dakota State decided to take its athletic department to the Division I level, leaving Wedemeyer with the task of recruiting players into a program that was not eligible for the NCAA postseason and was without a conference affiliation. Wedemeyer accepted the challenge even though it came with its low points. The program returned to where it was just three years earlier, posting a 5-11-1 record during its first season at the Division I level. Although the wins were not rolling in as quickly anymore, SDSU was making solid strides. The program faced 10 new opponents during the 2004 season and saw 11 Division I opponents. Five games into the season, the Jacks earned their first Division I win with a victory over Western Illinois, 2-0, at the Diadora Classic in Omaha, Neb., on Sept. 12. In 2005, the team recorded another five-win season, posting a 5-12-1 record in its second year of Division I play. The Jacks recorded Division I victories over Northern Iowa, Montana and Murray State, while also holding Big Ten member Minnesota scoreless on Sept. 11.

Wedemeyer Leads Jacks to First TitleSouth Dakota State joined the United Soccer Conference for its 2006 campaign. After starting the season with wins over Northern Iowa and Northern Illinois, the Jacks were holding their heads high with a 3-1-1 record through five games. However, SDSU struggled through the middle portion of its schedule. The Jacks went 0-7-1 in their next eight games, scoring just one goal during that stretch. Four of those losses were by scores of 1-0 but the Jacks knew the season was not over yet. Over the course of the final seven games of the season the Jacks posted a 5-1-1 record, which included a 2-0-1 record in the United Soccer Conference tournament to claim the USC championship. During SDSU’s three tournament games, goalkeepers Nicole Lograsso and Jenn Davis combined for three straight shutouts. The conference tournament title was the first for SDSU at any level and especially a nice reward for Wedemeyer after starting a program from scratch and leading it to a Division I conference title.

A New Home For SDSU Athletics, Soccer The 2007 season marked the first year for SDSU as a member of The Summit League. In 2008, the Jacks become a full Division I member and eligible for NCAA postseason competition.

NCAA College Cup ContenderIn 2008, Wedemeyer led the Jacks to a 15-5-1 record in their first year of eligibility for Division I postseason play. After winning the Summit League’s regular season title with a 7-1 record, the Jacks went on to win the conference tournament, earning them a trip to the NCAA College Cup. Wedemeyer’s 14th-seeded team beat the nationally ranked Colorado Buffaloes 1-0 in the first round of the Cup. It marked the first NCAA postseason victory for SDSU and was the first time a team from the Summit League won a game at the College Cup. The win garnered national attention in the soccer world and created a buzz throughout SDSU and the state. Wedemeyer was selected as the Soccerbuzz.com runner-up coach of the year and the South Dakota Sports Writers Women’s College Coach of the Year. That season he coached six Summit League all-conference selections, two all-newcomer team selections, the Summit League’s Defensive Player of the Year and an Academic All-American along with numerous other athletic and academic honors.

Outside of South Dakota StateIn addition to starting the women’s soccer program at SDSU, Wedemeyer has also been involved in other aspects of the South Dakota and national soccer community. He is a National Soccer Coaches Association of America regional director, overseeing all the coaching certification in South Dakota, North Dakota, Minnesota, Nebraska, Wyoming and Colorado. Wedemeyer is currently a NSCAA National Staff Coach and Regional Technical Director. He has traveled throughout the country conducting coaching certification and running clinics over the past ten years. In the summer of 2002, Wedemeyer added another title to his list of coaching credentials as he served as a coach for the Olympic Development Program Region II teams in the 1987, 1990 and 1993 age group teams, taking them on trips to Germany and Holland. In March 2010, he took the 1993 team to the Women’s International Algarve Tournament in Portugal. The team beat Ireland’s U17 National team, Sevilla’s women’s professional team and the women’s professional team from Benfica, Portugal. This same team beat Costa Rica’s U20 National team, which played in the U20 2010 World Cup in Germany.

Prior to SDSUWedemeyer joined the SDSU staff in 2000 as the first coach in women’s soccer history. Before taking his current post, Wedemeyer was the director of coaching and women’s coordinator for the Roanoke Valley Youth Soccer Club. His three-year tenure as the club’s assistant executive director included overseeing all 28 teams and their coaches. One of the youngest coaches in the United States to obtain all levels of coaching certification, Wedemeyer holds nine professional soccer coaching licenses, including a United State Soccer Federation “A” license and the NSCAA Premier diploma. While working on his master’s degree at Old Dominion, Wedemeyer served as an assistant coach for the men’s soccer program.

Playing CareerWedemeyer began his collegiate playing career at Virginia Tech University, where he was voted the ‘Hokies best defensive player two years in a row. He later transferred to Old Dominion University (Va.), where he captained the team and earned second-team academic All-America honors in 1994. Wedemeyer also has extensive professional playing experience in the United Soccer Leagues. He played three years for his hometown Roanoke Wrath before playing with the Sioux Falls Spitfire at the beginning of the team’s first season in 2001.

Assistant Coaches

In his first season at SDSU, assistant coach Brock Thompson helped guide the Jackrabbits to a 15-5-1 record, including a Summit League regular season and conference tournament championships and a second-round appearance in the NCAA College Cup. After earning the league’s automatic bid, the Jacks upset No. 14 and fourth-seeded Colorado Buffaloes 1-0, before falling in the second round to Minnesota. Thompson joined Lang Wedemeyer’s coaching staff in 2008 after compiling a 61-36-7 career record over three seasons at Mary (2001-03) and three years at North Dakota (2005-07). He led Mary to NAIA Region III championships in 2002 and 2003 and berths in the NAIA National Tournament. In his first season at UND, Thompson was named North Central Conference Coach of the Year after leading his squad to a 12-5-1 record and a berth in the 2005 NCAA Division II Tournament. He stepped down from his coaching post following the 2007 season to become UND’s director of compliance. A native of Blair, Neb., Thompson was a three-time team most valuable player for the Mary men’s soccer team, earning honorable mention All-America honors as a senior. He stayed on as assistant men’s soccer coach until being named women’s soccer head coach in 2001. The 2002 National Soccer Coaches Association of America Midwest Senior College Coach of the Year, Thompson left Mary in 2004 to become an assistant coach at Indiana State, while pursuing a master’s degree in sport management. Thompson also has extensive coaching experience at the club and high school ranks. He won three state titles as head girls’ soccer coach at Century High School in Bismarck, N.D., from 2000-04 and was director of coaching for North Dakota Youth Soccer from 2002-04. In addition, he served as regional staff coach for the Region II Olympic Development Program from 2003-05 and 2009. In October of 2010, Thompson was inducted into the Marauders Hall of Fame.

As The Summit League enters its fourth decade of Division I athletics, the performance level continues to rise to higher standards. A memorable 2011-12 campaign celebrated numerous record-setting and remarkable achievements for The Summit League, its member schools and student-athletes during the league’s 30th anniversary season. “Ascending” and “improving” are common adjectives used in media coverage of The Summit League as it continues its renaissance. Consisting of nine member institutions with over 3,000 student-athletes competing in 19 championship sports, The Summit League has enjoyed unprecedented success and development in recent history. Since rebranding as The Summit League in 2007, the league has produced 54 All-Americans, 37 Academic All-America selections and seven NCAA Championships. In the past seven seasons, Summit League teams have achieved nal national rankings in six different sports, won NCAA regional championships in two sports and advanced in three additional NCAA team championship tournaments. That level of success carries into both the classroom and athletic competition.

Record-Setting 2011-12 Season

In 2011-12 alone, The Summit League nearly doubled its all-time NCAA Champions total by claiming four national titles. IUPUI’s Chen Ni became the rst female to win multiple NCAA crowns when she claimed her second platform diving championship in three seasons. The Summit League produced its most successful NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships to date when its student-athletes won three titles. Southern Utah’s Cameron Levins, one of three nalists for the prestigious Bowerman Award, won the 10,000-meter and 5,000-meter races and became The Summit League’s rst student-athlete to nish rst in multiple events at a single championship. Oral Roberts’ Jack Whitt gave the league its third title when he won the pole vault competition. Two additional student-athletes collected NCAA statistical championships as Oakland’s Reggie Hamilton became The Summit League’s rst men’s basketball national scoring leader and Western Illinois’ Sammy Marshall was softball’s national leader in stolen bases per game. The Summit League’s growth and success is most evident at the annual Basketball Championships. Its 2012 event set a record for total attendance, including the all-time highest women’s tournament gure and the third-best overall men’s draw. The last four tournaments occupy each of the top four all-time tournament attendance totals in league history. Popularity of The Summit League’s marquee event reaches beyond the arena. The 2012 Basketball Championships marked the rst time in league history that all 14 men’s and women’s tournament games

appeared on national cable television. Since 2009, every tournament game has been televised, including the men’s championship on ESPN2 and the women’s title game on ESPNU. Men’s Basketball enjoyed a stellar season on and off the court. The Summit League nished 2011-12 with its highest RPI ranking in history, placing 16th among Division I conferences after peaking as high as No. 11 earlier in the season. A record ve teams played in national postseason tournaments with one, Oakland, making the deepest run in league history with three wins and a semi nal appearance in the CollegeInsider.com Tournament. The league-wide success translated to unprecedented fan support and an all-time best home attendance gure. Throughout the 2011-12 season, The Summit League measured up well against men’s basketball leagues across the country and nished with a .500 or better record against 15 of the 17 mid-major conferences. Against both Division I and overall non-league competition, The Summit League amassed its highest victory total and posted its best winning percentage on record. Under the national spotlight, The Summit League was one of only two conferences with multiple participating teams to post perfect records in nationally-televised BracketBuster games. In women’s athletics, The Summit League sent a record four teams to compete in national women’s basketball postseason tournaments, including an all-time high three in the WNIT. The volleyball season saw The Summit League ranked as high as No. 13 among the 33 Division I leagues in the Pablo Ranking system. With three national champions and the two-highest placing teams in league history at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships, The Summit League solidi ed itself as one of the national leaders in the sport. During the Indoor season, The Summit League nished ninth among men’s Division I leagues in the nal USTFCCCA conference index. A combined 12 men’s and women’s Indoor and Outdoor All-America honors went to Summit League student-athletes. The Summit League emphasizes a balance of outstanding athletics and academics. The NCAA honored a record 15 Summit League teams for APR success that included nishing among the top 10 percent for their sport. Individually, North Dakota State’s Amy Anderson continued to garner recognition as one of the NCAA’s top student-athletes by earning the National Golf Coaches Association’s Dinah Shore Trophy recognizing achievement in athletic performance, grade point average and community service. Similar honors went to IUPUI’s men’s soccer standout Perez Agaba, who earned selection to the Lowe’s Senior CLASS All-America team. A total of seven Summit League student-athletes were named to their sport’s Capital One Academic All-America teams, includes three rst team honorees.

Origins and Evolution

In 1982, the present-day Summit League was formed by commissioner F.L. “Frosty” Ferzacca as the Association of Mid-Continent Universities with eight schools competing in ve championship sports at the Division I level. Later known as the

THE SUMMIT LEAGUE #thesummitleague

IUPUI’s Chen Ni became the rst female in Summit League history to win two NCAA Championships, after winning the platform dive in 2010 and 2012.


Mid-Continent Conference, The Summit League has grown to a combined enrollment of over 144,000 students at nine universities, four of which are based in top-58 U.S. metro populations (Detroit, Indianapolis, Kansas City and Omaha). The Summit League’s two newest members, South Dakota and Nebraska Omaha, compete together for the rst time in 2012-13. Admitted to the league in 2009, USD completed its initial year of league competition in 2011-12 and is eligible for all championships this season. UNO joined the league in 2011 and is in its rst year of Summit League competition before becoming fully eligible for all sport championships in 2015-16. Current Summit League member institutions include: IPFW (Indiana-Purdue-Fort Wayne), IUPUI (Indiana University-Purdue University-Indianapolis), UMKC (University of Missouri-Kansas City), the University of Nebraska Omaha, North Dakota State University, Oakland University, the University of South Dakota, South Dakota State University, and Western Illinois University. Eastern Illinois University competes as an associate member in swimming and diving and men’s soccer and Oral Roberts University is an associate member for men’s soccer. These member institutions pride themselves on providing quality athletic, academic and social experiences for their student-athletes. The Summit League sponsors 19 championship sports: baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s golf, men’s and women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s swimming and diving, men’s and women’s indoor track and eld, men’s and women’s outdoor track and eld, men’s and women’s tennis, and volleyball. The league champion receives an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament in all applicable sports. Since its inception in 1982, The Summit League has had several transcendent moments on the national stage. In 1986, Cleveland State upset third-seeded Indiana in the rst round of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament on its way to a berth in the Sweet 16. A decade later, Valparaiso captured the nation’s attention when Bryce Drew hit “the shot” to topple No. 4 seed Mississippi in an NCAA rst-round game that sparked its 1998 Sweet 16 run. More recently, Oral Roberts’ baseball program nished the 2004 campaign with a national-ranking and became the rst Summit League school to reach an NCAA Super Regional in 2006. Three years later in 2009, North Dakota State became the league’s rst softball team to win an NCAA regional and advance to the Super Regional round. During the 2008-09 basketball season, South Dakota State’s women’s team was nationally-ranked throughout the year and capped its season with an NCAA Tournament rst round victory. The League has produced nine NCAA champions, four Olympic medalists and numerous All-Americans in the sports of track and eld, swimming and diving and cross country. Several professional athletes and draft choices have come directly from The Summit League, including three Major League Baseball rst round picks, a pair of NBA rst round choices, and one WNBA selection. Former Summit Leaguer Kevin Duckworth (NBA) was a two-time all-star during his professional career. To coincide with The Summit League’s 30th Anniversary Season, the league released a list of its Top 30 Distinguished Contributors from the Division I era as selected by a panel of voters from member schools and media. Four individual NCAA champions and three Olympic medalists along with four NBA players and two World Series Champions headlined The Summit League’s list of top student-athletes, coaches and administrators that was the jewel of the anniversary celebration.

South Dakota State UniversityFounded 1881 • Brookings, S.D.


With a record enrollment of 12,816 students in the fall of 2012, South Dakota State remains the state’s largest institution of higher learning.

SDSU Early History Located in Brookings, the Territorial Legislative Assembly authorized SDSU in 1881 to serve as the state’s land grant institution. Territorial Council member John O’Brien Scobey managed to secure Dakota Agricultural College for his city. Although allocations fell short of the actual cost, the school did open in the fall of 1884 because the president, George Lilley, advanced $500 — one-third of his salary — to finish three rooms in the new Central Building. “Old Central” was soon joined by South (1885) and North (1887), forming the nucleus of campus for a decade and a half. During the first year of operation, the college only held preparatory classes. College classes started in 1885 with five teachers, 17 freshman and 61 preparatory students. Growth stayed slow and erratic for many years, but by the turn of the 20th century, 242 students enrolled and by 1990, SDSU enrollment grew to more than 9,000 students.

Colleges Established SDSU granted nearly 70,000 degrees since its charter in 1881. The structure of the college became more complex as enrollments increased. The first nine chairs of instruction established in 1884 included agriculture, science, mathematics, English, modern languages, military tactics, veterinary science, practical business, political & domestic economy and music. By 1907, the year the name of the institution changed to South Dakota State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts, there were 22 departments on campus. Reorganization into the five divisions that formed the basis for the designation of colleges was completed under President Charles W. Pugsley in 1923. In 1964, when “State College” became South Dakota State University, the school included six colleges. Now, students can earn degrees offered through eight colleges. Students can choose from more than 200 majors, minors and options at SDSU with more than 2,500 different course offerings. Master’s degrees can be earned in more than 30 areas, with doctorates available in eight fields. SDSU also offers degree programs through the South Dakota Public Universities and Research Center in Sioux Falls. The Office of Academic Affairs and Outreach coordinates evening, RDTN, Internet and off-campus courses. The North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools accredits SDSU, while numerous departments on campus hold accreditation from various other agencies. SDSU celebrated its 125th anniversary in 2006, a yearlong event that culminated with the 2006 Hobo Day football game. Over those 125 years, SDSU grew from a campus of 80 acres in 1881 to a 271-acre campus with facilities worth more than $220 million. The university owns or leases another 15,000 acres for research throughout the state. The Printing and Journalism Building — now named Anson and Ada May Yeager Hall — underwent a $2.1 million expansion and renovation project. Other recent campus construction projects include a $7 million expansion to Crothers Engineering Hall, the renovation of Solberg Hall and the building of a $9 million performing arts center, which opened in the fall of 2002. A new residence hall (Caldwell Hall) and the University

Student Union expansion and renovation opened in the fall of 2005, and the Enterprise Institute, located on the southwest corner of campus opened in 2004. In 2005, SDSU spent more than $3 million to install new state of the art scoreboards in Frost Arena and at Coughlin Alumni Stadium.

Agricultural Research The university reaches all corners of the state through the Cooperative Extension Service and the Agricultural Experiment Station, offering service to improve the quality of rural life. SDSU also sponsors the Center for Innovation, Technology and Entrepreneurship; Engineering Experiment Station, Office of Remote Sensing; Water Resources Institute; Engineering and Environmental Research Center; Animal Disease Research and Diagnostic Laboratory; and Northern Grain Insect Research Laboratory. These units help strengthen the university’s growing commitment to research and support of state and local economic development efforts. The Northern Great Plains Biostress Laboratory, dedicated in 1993, houses scientists who focus on research aimed at developing new technologies to protect crops and livestock. SDSU is also one of just five universities to serve as a

regional center for the Sun Grant Initiative, which is a concept to solve America’s energy needs and revitalize rural communities with Land-Grant university research, education and Extension programs on renewable energy and bio-based non-food industries. The Harding Distinguished Lecture Series, the F.O. Butler Lectures, the Lusk Lecture and the Amdahl, Schultz-Werth and Griffiths endowments all supplement classroom instruction. Students can also choose from more than 100 clubs and organizations on campus.

Museums & Attractions The educational opportunities do not end in the classroom or laboratory, as South Dakota State University houses several facilities, including museums and gardens. Dedicated in 1970, and expanded in 2000, the South Dakota Federation of Women’s Club first envisioned the South Dakota Art Museum in 1949. The museum’s collections include early Sioux Indian tribal art, the famed Harvey Dunn paintings of pioneer life and the exclusive Vera Way Marghab linens. The State Agricultural Heritage Museum transformed the former Stock Judging Pavilion into a home for exhibits that record and preserve the agrarian heritage of South Dakota. The 70-acre McCrory Gardens and South Dakota Arboretum, located south and east of campus, provide a beautiful setting for area residents and tourists to enjoy a stroll through the radiant colors and fragrances of one of the top 10 small ornamental gardens in the nation. It is also recognized as an All-American Display Garden, one of only 13 in the nation. In 1993 McCrory Gardens was designated an All-American Judging Garden to conduct research on annual flowers. Since 1985, private contributions made many new gardens possible including the Rose, Rock, Centennial Prairie, Iris, True Lily, Mum, Native Prairie Collection, Oak Tree Memorial Garden, All-Red Specialty Garden, Peony Garden, Shrub Rose Collection, and Children’s Maze. In August 1994, McCrory Gardens dedicated

the Mickelson Grove Memorial in honor of former governor and Brookings resident George S. Mickelson. In 1982, they dedicated the area north of the formal garden to the planting and testing of ornamental trees and shrubs. The 45-acre site was designated the South Dakota State Arboretum in 1988. The arboretum’s purpose is to test woody plants needed to protect agricultural fields and livestock from the region’s harsh environment, to provide hardy trees to shade our towns and cities, and to test ornamental shrubs for both durability and beauty. SDSU Horticulture, Forestry, Landscape and Parks Department manage the arboretum and gardens. McCrory Gardens continues to develop more gardens, tree and shrub collections.

The Coughlin CampanileSouth Dakota State’s most recognizable landmark may be the 165-foot Coughlin Campanile, the state’s largest chimes tower. A climb of 179 steps leads to a panoramic view of the city. 1909 Engineering graduate Charles Coughlin, who later went on to become head of the Briggs & Stratton Corporation, donated the statuesque structure on the west end of campus at a cost of $65,000. Coughlin laid the campanile’s cornerstone on June 10, 1929. Since then, its chimes call students to classes with the famous Westminster peals. An alumni-sponsored project to restore the campanile was completed in the summer of 2001. Named after a former SDSU President, The Hilton M. Briggs Library, the state’s largest, opened in 1977 and joined South Dakota’s statewide automated library network in 1988.Through the library, users can access holdings from all 10 of the state’s libraries, including official documents and more than 1 million other holdings at Briggs. Adjacent to the campanile, Coolidge-Sylvan Theatre provides a restful, green haven for students since its dedication by President Calvin Coolidge in September 1927. Over the years the outdoor amphitheater hosted concerts, graduations and inaugurations for university presidents. Woodbine Cottage, the home of the university president, is a charming example of Queen Anne architecture. Built in 1887 by South Dakota Agricultural College’s second president, Dr. Lewis McLouth, the home is crowned by multiple rooflines. The house also served as a women’s dormitory, music hall and infirmary.

COOLIDGE-SYLVAN THEATRE—The Sylvan Theatre, located on the southwest corner of campus, is an outdoor amphitheater that has been the site of concerts, graduations and inaugurations of university presidents since its dedication by President Calvin Coolidge in September 1927.

SOUTH DAKOTA ART MUSEUM—The museum is home to several collections, including early Sioux Indian tribal art, the famed Harvey Dunn paintings of pioneer life, and the exclusive Vera Way Marghab linens. The South Dakota Art Museum also has a variety of other exhibits throughout the year.

RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES—SDSU has the highest involvement of undergraduates in research of any South Dakota public university. The university is large enough to offer the opportunities, yet small enough to foster student-faculty learning opportunities.



The Jackrabbits Two theories exist as to how and why SDSU’s athletic teams became known as the “Jackrabbits.” Most believe that the name “Jackrabbits” came from a story and cartoon sketch that appeared in a Minneapolis newspaper following a 1905 football game between the University of Minnesota and South Dakota State College. Many believe that a reporter for the newspaper, knowing of the preponderance of jackrabbits in the Brookings area, wrote that the SDSC team was as quick as jackrabbits. Many people believe that the school adopted the Jackrabbits as its official nickname from that beginning. The other theory about the origin of the nickname came in The Jackrabbit, SDSU’s yearbook. A poem in the 1907 yearbook puts forth the idea that the yearbook is called The Jackrabbit because a group of juniors wished to immortalize themselves by changing the name of the yearbook. Athletic teams followed suit, adopting the nickname. Prior to the adoption of the Jackrabbit nickname, fans knew the school athletic teams as the Barn Yard Cadets as SDSU was known as South Dakota State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts in 1907. The Jackrabbit can run at speeds of 30-to-35 miles per hour, with bursts up to 45, making it the second fastest animal in North America, second only to the pronghorn antelope, which can run at speeds up to 60 miles per hour. Jackrabbits are, properly speaking, not rabbits but hares, with longer feet and longer ears than rabbits. Most hares live in open country, whereas rabbits - like cottontails - live in brushy habitats. Jackrabbits can grow up to two feet long, weigh froms six to nine pounds, with ears up to eight inches long. Hares are vegetarians, eating tender herbs in summer, and woody twigs and bark in the winter.

Brookings, South Dakota Named after W.W. Brookings, who came to the area in 1857. That winter, his legs froze badly enough to force doctors to amputate them. Undaunted, Brookings stayed and eventually became president of the territorial council and a judge in the state supreme court. In honor of his support of railroad construction, and possibly because of his stalwart nature, South Dakota’s first locomotive was named the “Judge Brookings.” Situated at the intersection of U.S. Highway 14 and Interstate 29, about 20 miles west of the Minnesota border and 50 miles north of Sioux Falls, the Brookings community of about 18,500 people continues to grow. The community also houses several recognizable companies including Rainbow Play Systems, Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing (3M medical products), Larson Manufacturing (doors and windows), and Daktronics, a leading manufacturer of scoreboards and display systems.


HILTON M. BRIGGS LIBRARY—Shown above is the entrance to South Dakota’s largest library, which was opened in 1977 and later joined the state’s automated library network in 1988. Through the library, users have access to holdings from all 10 of South Dakota’s libraries, including official documents and more than 1 million other holdings in Briggs.

SOUTH DAKOTA AGRICULTURAL HERITAGE MUSEUM—Originally constructed as the Stock Judging Pavilion, the South Dakota Agricultural Heritage Museum is now home to exhibits that record and preserve the agrarian heritage of the state.

MEMORIAL PARK—Memorial Park, located between DuPuy Military Hall and Briggs Library in the center of campus, honors SDSU students who have served in the armed forces, including Congressional Medal of Honor recipients Capt. Willibald Bianchi and Col. Leo Thorsness. The park was dedicated in the fall of 2000.

WOODBINE COTTAGE—Built in 1887 by SDSU’s second president, Dr. Lewis McLouth, Woodbine Cottage serves as the home of the university president. Over the years, the house has also served as a women’s dormitory, music hall and infirmary.

McCRORY GARDENS—The 70-acre McCrory Gardens and South Dakota Arboretum are located south and east of SDSU’s campus. The gardens provide a beautiful setting for area residents and tourists to enjoy a stroll through the radian colors and fragrances of one of the top 10 small ornamental gardens in the nation.

Justin SellAthletic Director, South Dakota State UniversityBowling Green University, ‘91

Justin Sell joined the Jackrabbit staff on May 7, 2009 as the 12th director of athletics at South Dakota State University.

Sell oversees the Jackrabbits’ 21-sport Division I varsity athletics program. Eighteen SDSU teams compete in The Summit League, while football competes in the Missouri Valley Football Conference of the Football Championship Subdivision and wrestling competes as a member of the Western Wrestling Conference. Women’s equestrian competes under the umbrella of the National Collegiate Equestrian Association.

Under Sell’s leadership, SDSU athletics continues to make strides in athletic competition, in the classroom, in fundraising and in reconnecting with alumni.

Athletically, the Jackrabbits claimed a total of 10 regular and postseason league championships in five different sports since 2009-10. That success earned SDSU The Summit League Commissioner’s Cup all-sports trophy following the 2010-11 season, after a runner-up finish the year before. Also in 2010-11, SDSU earned the league’s Sportsmanship Award, an award voted upon by their peers.

In the classroom, Jackrabbit student-athletes continually post a grade-point average of 3.2 or higher in more than 70 different majors, which led SDSU to winning The Summit League’s Institutional Academic Achievement Award for the 2009-10 academic year and the Missouri Valley Football Conference Academic Award in all four years in the league (2008-11).

In January of 2011, Sell announced a partnership with Learfield Sports, signing a 10-year deal worth $13 million for SDSU athletics. Learfield Sports quickly established a Brookings-based entity known as “Jackrabbit Sports Properties” that directs all aspects of the partnership, including managing and selling multimedia

and sponsorship rights for South Dakota State Athletics.

In addition to the deal with Learfield Sports, Sell directed the implementation of the Letterwinners Club, which provides opportunities for Jackrabbit Athletics to reconnect and stay connected with former student-athletes, while supporting current student-athletes at South Dakota State.

In the years to come, Sell wants to continue reconnecting with former Jackrabbit student-athletes and enhancing the athletic facilities while still maintaining success, both in competition, but more importantly, in the classroom.

On the facilities front, Sell oversaw the completion of the Dykhouse Student-Athlete Center in 2010, and developed the 2025 SDSU Athletic Facilities Master Plan. Additionally, Sell spearheaded efforts to add permanent seating and a press box at Erv Huether Field, chairback seating in both Frost Arena and Coughlin-Alumni Stadium and continues working towards the building of an indoor practice facility and football stadium.

Born in Salem, Ore., and raised in Columbus, Ohio, Sell came to South Dakota State from the University of Northern Iowa, where he worked in various roles, both at the university and in the community for 10 years. He also worked at Villanova University, Syracuse University, Ohio State University and Bowling Green State University. Sell gained further experience working in the private sector for various sports teams and events.

In the Brookings community, where Sell lives with his wife, Jennie, and their four children: Abbie, Zach, Josh and Eric, he serves as Vice President of the Brookings Chamber of Commerce, Vice President for the Brookings Friends of Baseball and on the Brookings Health System Board of Trustees.

Sell earned his bachelor’s degree in sport management from Bowling Green State University (Ohio) in 1991 and completed a master’s degree in physical education/sport administration at The Ohio State University in 1992.
