Coyotes drop second game to No. 23 Jacks 80-75

BROOKINGS, S.D.—No. 23 South Dakota State ended the game on a 13-point run to defeat South Dakota 80-75 inside Frost Arena on Saturday night.
 
The Jackrabbits (15-2, 8-0 Summit) completed the regular season sweep of the Coyotes (10-2, 6-2 Summit) for the first time since 2014, which is the last time SDSU won a game in Vermillion. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and altered Summit League scheduling, both rivalry games were played in Brookings for the first time ever.
 
Senior guard Chloe Lamb led the Coyotes with 18 points while limited to 23 minutes with foul trouble. Lamb was 6-of-7 from the field with her only miss coming in the final seconds on a contested 3-pointer as she attempted to tie the game.
 
Senior center Hannah Sjerven had 16 points on 7-of-11 shooting. She added nine boards, three blocks, three assists and two steals to her stat line. Senior guard Liv Korngable was the third Coyote in double-figures with 15 points.
 
South Dakota State was led by Myah Selland's 26 points and Paiton Burckhard's 22. Burckhard, who entered the night with three made 3-pointers on the season, knocked down 4-of-5 behind the arc. Tylee Irwin (12) and Tori Nelson (11) also reached double-figures for the Jacks.
 
The game featured 10 lead changes and nine tie-ups. The Jacks flipped an eight-point Coyote lead with three minutes left into a five-point advantage.
 
South Dakota made 28-of-53 (52.8 percent) from the field and SDSU shot 26-of-53 (49.1 percent) on the night. The scoring differential came from the free-throw line as the Jacks hit 21-of-22 from the stripe compared to the Coyotes' 13-of-16 finish at the line.
 
Freshman point guard Maddie Krull added nine points and five boards in the game. Sophomore forward Jeniah Ugofsky tallied seven points and six boards and freshman forward Morgan Hansen had seven points off the bench.
 
South Dakota wraps up its eight-game road stretch in league play next weekend. The Coyotes travel to North Dakota with tip-off for the first game at noon Saturday, Feb. 13, in Grand Forks, N.D.
