SIOUX FALLS, S.D.—South Dakota senior Zack Anderson has been named the Summit League Field Athlete of the Week for the period ended Jan. 26.
 
Anderson snags the honor for the third time of his career after leaping 7 feet, 3 ¼ inches, to win the high jump at SDSU's Jim Emmerich Alumni Invitational in Brookings on Saturday.
 
The height leads the Summit by five inches this season and ranks seventh in the NCAA. The mark is also just a centimeter shy of his indoor best, USD's school record, from last season. Anderson has cleared 7 feet in the high jump 25 times in his career.
 
South Dakota track and field returns to action at the Adidas Classic on Saturday inside the Bob Devaney Sports Center in Lincoln, Nebraska.
