letters to students

HATTIE SETEN SA President

Students’ Association President, Hattie Seten, shares advice from the student persepective

Greetings, new Jacks! I am excited to welcome you to the Jackrabbit family! Although the unprecedented times have created uncertainty and stress, I hope that you find confidence in the support of the members of the South Dakota State University community. Your fellow students, professors, faculty, staff, administrators and Brookings community members are thrilled that you have chosen to attend SDSU, and we cannot wait to cheer you on as you navigate your new journey.

Through your time here at State, you will be challenged, and prepared, so that when you walk across the stage in the Frost Arena, you will be the next class of SDSU alumni and world changers. During the next few years, I encourage you to take chances, try something new and explore exciting opportunities. Become part of a team and join intramurals. Step into the spotlight and be a part of a theatre production. Discover your passions and join a student organization. Use your voice and serve in student government. Research in a lab with faculty at the top of their field. Present your scholarly work at academic conferences. Make a new friend in your residential hall or the University Student Union.

The possibilities and successes that you can achieve are simply endless at SDSU. By joining the Jackrabbit family, you are becoming part of something that is bigger than yourself. You will partake in Jackrabbit traditions such as climbing all 180 steps of the Campanile, eating way too much SDSU ice cream at the SDSU Dairy Bar, taking photos with Jack the Jackrabbit, attending the biggest one-day event in the Dakotas, cheering on Jackrabbit athletics and ringing the bells for South Dakota.

Know that your Jackrabbit chapter is only beginning. It is up to you to fill the pages with memories and experiences that you will remember and cherish for the rest of your life. Go Big, Go Blue, Go Jacks!

With a loyal heart so true, Hattie Seten Students’ Association President

@sdsucollegian

BARRY DUNN SDSU President

The Collegian

Hear from the president of SDSU, Barry Dunn, and his advice for incoming students

Welcome to South Dakota State University! A new year is upon us, bringing with it new opportunities and new challenges. Each year, I look forward to the incredible accomplishments of our University, as well as the successes and achievements of our students. I am grateful you have selected SDSU, and I am excited to join you on this critical stretch of your life’s journey.

Founded in 1881, your university is the largest in the state, and for over a century it has been evolving to meet the needs of those seeking a post-secondary degree. South Dakota State University is an innovative, student-centered public university committed to improving life in the state, the region, the nation and the world through research, public service and education.

As president of the university, I have the privilege of providing you a rich, inclusive academic experience that prepares you for the life you imagine. Providing you a premier university experience is at front of mind as I make decisions to prepare SDSU to meet the needs of all students.

In return, I humbly make this request—please make your mark on SDSU. This may seem daunting at an institution of some 11,000 students, but I know you have the potential, and it’s not as difficult as you might think.

I encourage you to become active and involved on campus. With more than 200 clubs and organizations, we have something for every interest, and each group would be enriched by your involvement.

There are opportunities to volunteer your time to others who could benefit from your time and talents.

You will find the more you serve others, the more worthwhile your own college experience becomes.

By embracing and becoming involved in a multitude of opportunities, you create context for discovery and creativity beyond what you imagined was possible. And that is at the heart of the SDSU experience.

You see, your time here will provide you countless opportunities to create a legacy that lasts well beyond your enrollment, and each of these opportunities begins with the single step you took onto campus today.

I know your last few months of high school were not all you had hoped for. I also know your summer may not have included all of the events and fun you’ve come to enjoy. The University will look different this fall than it has in the past; however, we are prepared to provide you with a premier academic experience filled with opportunities to expand your horizons. The experiences we will share together will make each of us better than we were before.

Once again, welcome to the Jackrabbit family. I look forward to meeting you soon and discussing how you are making your mark on South Dakota State University.

Sincerely, Barry H. Dunn President, South Dakota State University

terms to know

JORDAN RUSCHE Copy Editor

Starting a new chapter of your life at South Dakota State University also means having to learn the names of dozens of new places, people and organizations.

While navigating your new surroundings can be difficult, this list of definitions for some of the common names and phrases you will hear on campus can help you get started.

The Campanile The Coughlin Campanile, more commonly shortened to The Campanile, is the chimes tower at the far southwest corner of campus. It was completed in 1929 as a gift from Charles Coughlin, a 1909 graduate of SDSU and president of the Briggs and Stratton Company. The

Campanile rings on the hour, as well as plays music during the ten-minute interval between classes.

Many new freshmen climb the 180 steps to the top at the beginning of the semester.

Hobo Day Hobo Day is SDSU’s homecoming tradition, typically taking place in October. The largest one-day celebration in the Dakotas, the event includes a parade featuring SDSU students, faculty and organizations, plus an annual football game.

Main Street Main Street is the walking corridor connecting the east and west entrances of the Student

Union. Student organizations, SDSU resources and Brookings area businesses will often set up booths along Main Street for students to visit between classes.

The Rotunda The Bailey Rotunda is the circular building close to the middle of campus and connected to Wagner Hall.

Many freshman lectures are held in its seven amphitheater-style classrooms.

Desire2Learn Desire2Learn, known by the acronym D2L, is an online resource that gives students access to their course material. Professors can use D2L for quizzes, assignments, documents, grades and discussion

boards.

MyState MyState is another online resource that gives students access to information such as parking tickets, class schedules, campus events, meal plans, textbooks and Hobo Dough.

Hobo Dough Hobo Dough is money added to your account via MyState to pay for services such as printing, vending machines and laundry machines on campus. It can also be used to purchase food at certain restaurants off campus in the Brookings community. Hobo Dough has to be personally added to your account and isn’t included in your meal plan.

@sdsucollegian Jackrabbit Village Jackrabbit Village is where Abbott, Spencer and Thorne Hall are located.

These newer dorms are co-ed and house only firstand second-year students.

Students’ Association Students’ Association, or SA, is the representing organization for the student body. They allocate funds to student organizations and often speak on behalf of SDSU students.

This also includes the SA Senate, which is made up of senators from each academic college, a student body president and a vice president.

The Collegian Performing Arts Center The PAC is located north of the Southeast Parking Lot and houses SDSU’s music and theater department. Its recent expansion was completed in 2018 to include two new performance spaces and additional classrooms. Most of the college’s concerts and stage performances are held in the PAC, and the center also features practice rooms for band, chorus, dance and theater.

Weary Wil and Dirty Lil The faces of SDSU’s Hobo Day are located to the north of the Student Union in the form of two statues.

Weary Wil and Dirty Lil are represented at Hobo Day each year by two alumni of the Hobo Day Committee, and their identities are kept secret until halftime of the Hobo Day football game.

Larson Commons The Commons serves as one of the many locations on campus to eat at and connects Young and Binnewies Hall. It offers a variety of options for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Students can use their block plan to eat at this location.

Wellness Center Located near the Student Union, the Wellness Center

7 hosts a variety of gym equipment, three climbing walls and two hardwood courts for activities like basketball, volleyball and more. Since membership fees are included in tuition, students can access these features at any time.

Sanford Jackrabbit Athletic Complex The SJAC is an indoor training and competition facility located on the northeast end of campus.

It features an indoor track and practice field and often houses athletic training, conditioning and various kinds of physical therapy.

welcome to academia

NOAH MINCHEFF Opinion Editor Congratulations, you’ll never hear “the bell doesn’t dismiss you, I do” ever again! With a few exceptions, you’ll never have a class before 8 a.m., you’ll never miss the big yellow bus and your mom won’t drag you out of bed. The other good news is that those 12 years of school did actually prepare you quite well for these next four; however, there are some things you will need to adapt to.

Pace Now, you get to choose your subjects of study, so you’ll more often be dealing with topics that interest you. The depth of all subjects increases sharply as you move into the academic world though, meaning college courses are far more targeted and accelerated programs. A semester-long ( a p p rox i m a t e l y f o u r

months) course will cover just as much if not more content than your yearlong high school courses did. This pace places a high demand on students to keep up, but don’t despair, as South Dakota State University and other organizations offer a multitude of helpful programs to keep students rolling along, such as the Writing Center or Supplemental Instruction.

Remember, if you do find yourself falling behind, your professor is also a resource; they are here to help you and want to see you succeed. Reaching out to a professor demonstrates a willingness to succeed and make up for previous mistakes.

Grading Most college courses do away with the kinds of routine busy work you may have encountered in high

school. College demands fewer assignments, with significantly higher standards for quality. Your professors will ask you to invest serious time and effort in each of your assignments, so put some passion into your work. College assignments are generally significantly more involved processes, so use all the time you are given if possible. Keep in mind, all of this work is in the interest of your own development, so invest in yourself and do your best every time.

Attendance As I mentioned above, your mom will not drag you out of bed for class — no one will. Although some classes still mandate attendance, that is not legally binding as it was with public school, and some don’t even track attendance at all. Don’t get too excited,

you still have to go. Not attending your classes is a waste of your own time and money, and displays apathy towards the course your professor worked hard to design and dedicates their time to leading. If you are having trouble getting to classes, reach out to your professor and try speaking with a counselor at the Wellness Center. You came here to learn, so be consistent and attend each of your classes.

College is a new playing field, and it can be quite intimidating. Just remember that you’re here for you, by choice, to further your education in a subject of your passion.

College is a playground for thinkers and learners to soak up information and develop themselves as up-and-coming adults.

Enjoy it, because you only do it once.

freshman campus resources JORDAN RUSCHE Copy Editor

Starting your first semester of college can be exciting, but at times it can also be confusing. With new classes, schedules and surroundings, navigating your first semester on your own can be difficult. Luckily, South Dakota State University offers plenty of resources for students to help make their transition from high school to college as smooth as possible.

Wintrode Student Success Center The Wintrode Student Success Center is located at the south end of campus and offers a variety of services for first-year students to help them thrive academically. One of these is the First Year Advising Center, which helps students register for classes, add and drop majors or minors as well as alert and aid students who are struggling with poor attendance, low test scores, behavioral concerns or other issues affecting classroom performance.

Additionally, the Success Center features both a tutoring program and supplemental instruction (SI)

programs. The tutoring program provides smallgroup tutoring for a variety of classes, such as physics, microbiology and economics. The SI programs are a weekly review in larger groups for commonly challenging courses, like many biology and chemistry courses.

hold various career fairs throughout the year for the different academic colleges in SDSU, like engineering, nursing and agriculture.

Writing Center The Writing Center, located on the first floor of the Briggs Library, can provide additional help in writing assignments for a variety of courses. English instructors, graduate and undergraduate students all serve as writing tutors to actively engage students in improving their writing.

Student Health and Counseling Located within the Wellness Center, the Student Health Clinic is staffed by medical personnel like certified nurse practitioners and registered nurses. Students can also visit Jackrabbit Pharmacy for prescriptions and other necessary supplies. Along with physical medical treatment, counseling services are available for individuals, groups and couples who may desire additional support.

Office of Career Development The Office of Career Development is located inside the Student Union along Main Street. Some of the services they offer include resume and cover letter reviews, drop-in hours and walk-ins to discuss career-related concerns, interview preparation and internship information. They also

American Indian Student Center The AISC serves as a place for American Indian and Alaskan Native students to study, socialize and engage in tutoring, mentoring, leadership activities and other related academic services. While currently located in the Enrollment Services Center on the northeast side of campus, a new center is currently

being constructed south of the Rotunda.

Multicultural Center The Multicultural Center, which just relocated to the upper level of the Student Union in 2019, offers its own tutoring services, resources, study space and activities for any students interested in partaking. It also encompasses student organizations such as the Black Student Alliance, Latin American Student Association, and Gender and Sexualities Alliance.

Office of Disability Services Disability Services provides SDSU students with academic assistance and accommodation for a variety of disabilities and is in the upper level of the Union in the Multicultural Center. Some of the offered services include notetakers, sign language interpreters, alternative options for exams and assistive technology. Students can also work with Disability Services and professors for additional accommodations if necessary.

show school spirit Barnyard Cadets

The Barnyard Cadets is a student-run organization that’s goal is to encourage school spirit among students, whether it’s at sporting events or events during Hobo Week.

Stand up and clap

It’s simple: stand up and clap along with our fight song “Ring the Bells.” You’ll be ahead of other Jacks if you’re able to sing the lyrics to the fight song. Some upperclassmen may teach you alternative versions.

Cowbells

The cowbell dates back to the 1920s when students from the University of South Dakota referred to South Dakota State College (now South Dakota State University) as a “cow college.” SDSC students then decided that if they were going to be the cow college they might as well bring cowbells to football games. It’s been a tradition and school symbol ever since, but cowbells are not allowed at any athletic events.

sdsucollegian.com

Ring the Bell

Ring the bells for South Dakota The Yellow and the Blue Cheer the team from South Dakota With loyal hearts so true Win the game for South Dakota The school that serves us well; We will fight for South Dakota So let’s ring, ring, ring those bells.

Yellow and Blue We come from the Sioux and Missouri, The Cheyenne and the Jim, From pine clad peaks of the Black Hills, Brimful of vigor and vim, We sing the song of the prairie, The home of the Yellow and Blue.

The gleaming gold of the corn field, The flax of azure hue.

Oh SDSU hurrah for the Yellow and Blue; Old SDSU all honor and glory to you; Forever raise the song in praise both loud and long With loyal hearts so true (so true).

8 ways to live sustainably JENNIFER McLAUGHLIN

SDSU Sustainability Specialist Join in the growing sustainability culture at South Dakota State University. Being sustainable not only is better for the environment and society, but it is also beneficial to you.

1. Recycle.

Trash and recycling bins are located across campus with a color coding system where yellow bins are for trash and blue bins are for recycling. Recycling (and trash) bins are also available in each residence hall room. A recycling guide is available on the SDSU Sustainability Website.

2. Watch the water.

Turn the water off when you brush your teeth. Running the water as you brush your teeth wastes around four gallons of water. Over the course of one year, that adds up to 1,460 gallons, which is about the volume of 18 standard-sized bathtubs.

3. Unplug.

Unplug electronics when not in use. Many electronics still use energy even when they are turned off, but still plugged in. Unplugging electronics when they are not in use is an easy way to save energy.

4. Ditch driving.

Ride your bike or walk. Doing so not only reduces pollution, but it also makes you healthier and feel happier.

5. Keep clothes cold.

Wash your clothes in cold water. According to an article in The Christian Science Monitor, washing your clothes in cold water uses 15 times less energy than washing your clothes in hot water.

6. No more bottled water.

Besides the environmental benefits, using a reusable water bottle has economic benefits, too. According to an article written by Sustainability at Wake Forest University, “The average American is likely to spend $588 on 168 bottles of water” in one year. A Nalgene water bottle at Walmart costs $12. Water from SDSU water fountains and bottle refill stations is free.

7. Use reusable ware.

Did you know that Aramark sells reusable cups, coffee-mugs, to-go containers, and bags? To-go boxes cost $4.99, but when you use this box you don’t have to pay the $0.50 for a disposable container. Thus, it only takes 10 uses for the to-go box to pay for itself.

Using reusable ware helps reduce the amount of waste we generate on campus.

8. Print double-sided.

This cuts your paper usage in half. Briggs Library printers are set up to automatically print double-sided.

dorm room necessities GRACIE TERRALL Copy Editor Preparing for college can be a stressful time and trying to figure out what to pack can be even harder. Here is a list of some things you should and shouldn’t bring.

Do Bring:

Command hooks Drilling holes or hammering nails in the walls is definitely a no go, but you still need a place to hang your coat or that super cute Bob Ross painting you attempted to do.

Twin XL mattress pad Getting a good night’s sleep is imperative for you to focus and do well during your classes, but let’s face it, those stiff dorm mattresses aren’t cutting it anymore. Pick up a soft, squishy mattress pad to help make sleeping in your new room a little cozier.

Comfortable shoes The walk from Young Hall to the Animal Science Complex can be a long one. Bringing a good, comfortable pair of shoes will really come in handy when you’re running to class.

Mini-fridge A mini-fridge is an absolute must. You can stock up on drinks and food for those lazy days where you don’t want to leave your room. Plus, you’ll need a place to store your leftover Weary Wil’s.

Don’t Bring:

Your entire wardrobe I know, having options is nice. But there isn’t enough space in the dorms for you to pack up every pair of jeans you own and bring them to Brookings.

Pots and pans Every dorm has a kitchen, or a few, equipped with pots, pans, and other cooking necessities. Bringing them from home will just take up extra space you probably won’t have in your room.

Printer Save your money. I know printing from your dorm may seem convenient, but there are multiple places on campus where you can use your Hobo Dough to print! A clunking printer also takes up a lot of space in your room.

Extra room decor I know it may be tempting to bring your extra throw pillows and candles, but truth be told, they won’t be necessary. Burning candles aren’t allowed in the dorms and those throw pillows will just become a nuisance when you have to constantly move them.

how to start a student org 1. generate an idea SDSU has more than 240 student orgs, but we have room for more. Pick your passion and consider sharing it with others through a student org.

2. get members You’ll need at least six students and an advisor who is an employee at SDSU.

3. apply The Office of Student Activities (OSA) in room SSU (Student Union) 136 has an application packet and helpful staff waiting to help you get your club off the ground. For more information, email them at: sdsu.studentactivities@sdstate.edu

4. meet OrgSub This committee of staff and students provides an initial review of your club and helpful direction on creating an engaging constitution for your organization.

5. present to SA Elected members of Students’ Association will review your constitution and ask questions to help get your group moving forward. With their final approval, OSA will assist you in getting set up in Jacks Club Hub.

The Students’ Association is the representative student government at South Dakota State University.

There are 26 senators in the Students’ Association, with 18 representing specific academic colleges (the College of Nursing and the College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences

what is SA? for example) and 8 at-large senators.

The job of SA is to represent the student body on issues that face the school, including the annual budget, general activity fee increases and the approval of new student organizations.

SA utilizes Mason’s

Manual of Legislative Procedure, a 752-page manual of parliamentary procedure used by many state and local governments.

Meetings of the Students’ Association are open to the public and take place at 7 p.m. every Monday in the Lewis and Clark Room of the Student Union.

The Students’ Association election for the 2021-22 academic year will take place during the spring semester of 2021.

More information about the current SA senate can be found on their website: https://www.sdstate.edu/ students-association

Last year, the Students’ Association voted on 22 resolutions, two ordinances and eight amendments. What does any of that mean?

Senator-at-large: A senator who, instead of being elected to represent an academic college, applied for the position to represent the student body as a whole and was interviewed and approved by the SA executive board.

define the jargon

Resolution: “Requesting or commending action by organizations or persons outside the authority of the [SDSU Students’ Association].”

Amendment: A change or addition to improve a previously submitted resolution or ordinance.

Ordinances: “An Ordinance, until altered by subsequent acts of the Senate, is a legislative act that binds both current and future legislative action.”

faculty honors J. MICHAEL BERTSCH Managing Editor South Dakota State University has a long history of award-winning faculty, and the 2020 roster is no different.

Dr. Timothy Hansen, Assistant professor of electrical engineering Hansen, currently in his fourth year at SDSU, was recently awarded the 2019 C. Holmes MacDonald Outstanding Teaching Award by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers’ honor society Eta Kappa Nu. According to IEEE, the award recognizes young engineering professors who show dedication to their

teaching while balancing the pressure for research and publication. “(Tenure and promotion) is pretty much 80% to 90% research,” Hansen said.

“But you can tell when a faculty member doesn’t care about teaching. If you assign me a class I’m going to make sure it’s the best I can do.”

H a n s e n’s current research focuses on optimization and electric power systems.

As a young faculty member, Hansen is constantly working to improve his classes through assistance from the Center

for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning as well as other faculty in the department.

“One of the biggest things I’ve learned is, it might seem like an eternity standing there in silence but if you don’t do it, nobody’s ever going to speak up,” Hansen said.

“So be willing to stand in awkwardness.”

Hansen also encourages partner discussion as a way to improve students’ understanding.

“I make sure to get people to talk to each other in class,” Hansen said. “If I’m getting people to talk and

work together, everybody’s involved, and even though one person might answer, the whole class made that mental connection.”

Currently, Hansen is teaching three electrical engineering courses: EE 245 Digital Systems, EE 492/592 Advanced Power Systems Analysis and CSC/EE 592 Fundamentals of High-Performance Computing.

“I enjoy working with the students. I’m glad that I get to teach. And I like the research-teaching balance,” Hansen said.

J. MICHAEL BERTSCH Managing Editor Dr. Cody Wright, professor of animal sciences Wright was recently awarded the North Central Regional Award for Excellence in College and University Teaching in Food and Agricultural Sciences by the United States Department of Agriculture’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture.

Wright has been teaching at SDSU since Jan. 2001 and has been nominated for this award by the animal science department a total of three times.

“It’s pretty rare that you get it your first time because it’s a pretty strong pool of candidates,” Wright said. “I’ve been nominated two times previously, and I was lucky enough to get it this time.”

According to the USDA, there are five regions for the National Award for Excellence in College

and University Teaching in the Food and Agricultural Sciences, including the North Central region where SDSU resides. The program recognizes outstanding faculty in agriculture, natural resources, veterinary and human sciences.

Wright has built upon his 20 years of teaching at SDSU to develop a threepart teaching philosophy and reach the status of “outstanding” in the eyes of the USDA. Part one of his philosophy is to create a sense of relevance.

“Make sure that the information that we present or discuss in class is something that the students understand,” Wright said. “How does this fit with what I’m going to do in my career? Or what I might do at my home farmer ranch?

How do we draw linkages

or build bridges between what a student learned in a previous course.”

The second part of Wright’s philosophy is rigor.

“First and foremost, they’re paying for this, you as a student, you’re paying for this,” Wright said. “And so it’s a return on investment. And I think my job is to make sure that you get as much return on your investment. And so the rigor is high, but I think it’s important that you challenge students. How far can we push your knowledge and your understanding of what we’re talking about?”

Finally, part three of Wright’s philosophy is creating a relationship and a positive learning environment for the students.

“I want them to feel comfortable there,” Wright said. “I want them to feel comfortable with me, so

that we can get into the classroom environment and at any time they can ask questions.”

Currently, Wright is teaching several courses in the animal science department: AS 264 Ruminant Livestock Production, AS 319 Livestock Feeds and Feeding, AS 389 Current Issues in Animal Science, AS 474 Cow-Calf Management, AS 492 Beef Seeds to c k Me rc h a n d i s i n g and AS 733 Vitamins and Minerals.

In response to his award for excellent teaching, Wright’s best advice to teachers is to utilize their resources.

“To be quite honest, one of the best things you can do is steal other people’s ideas,” Wright said.

“Asking each other how did you make that work? Just sharing ideas. It works. It works great.”

sports in review Landon Dierks Outgoing Sports Editor The outbreak of COVID-19 may have caused winter sport postseason cancelations and the abandonment of spring sports early in their respective seasons, but the 2019-20 athletic seasons provided their fair share of highlights and storylines nonetheless.

Here are the top stories from South Dakota State University’s year in sports: Men’s cross country Not only did the SDSU men four-peat as Summit League champions in 2019, they did so in dominant fashion. Joseph Minor-Williams, Micah Mather, Lukas Nelson, Chase Cayo, Thomas Breuckman and Gabe Peters swept the top six individual places (in list order) at the conference championships as the Jackrabbits earned a perfect score of 15. Minor-Williams, a sophomore, was named the Summit League’s Men’s Cross Country Athlete of the Year, and head coach Rod DeHaven earned the conference’s Men’s Cross Country Coach of the Year honor.

Football The SDSU football program made the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs for the eighth consecutive year in 2019, earning a top-eight national seed in the bracket for the fourth year in a row. Other highlights included the Dakota Marker rivalry game drawing ESPN’s College GameDay to Brookings for the first time on Oct. 26, 2019, and three members of the 2019 roster signing undrafted free agent contracts with NFL franchises (Mikey Daniel, Falcons; Christian Rozeboom, Rams; Luke Sellers, Lions).

Soccer SDSU’s soccer program won its first Summit League Tournament title since 2016 after defeating the University of Denver 5-4 on penalty kicks in the championship contest. The Jacks went 15-5-2 on the season with a 12-game win streak stretching from Sept. 10-Oct. 24. Seven Jackrabbits earned all-league honors, headlined by Maggie Smither (Goalkeeper of the Year), Leah Manuleleua (Offensive Player of the Year) and Maya Hansen (Freshman of the Year). Darien Poelstra and Kaitlin Zabel joined Smither and Manuleleua on the conference’s first team, with Karlee Manding and Gabby Vivier-Hannay joining Hansen on the second team.

Men’s basketball Losing four starters and a head coach didn’t slow down the Jackrabbit men’s basketball program, which won 22 games (including a perfect 16-0 home record) and a share of the Summit League regular season title in the first year under Eric Henderson. Three Jackrabbits — Douglas Wilson, Matt Dentlinger and Noah Freidel (all of whom return in 2020-21) — earned All-Summit League honors, and Henderson was named Coach of the Year.

Wrestling Four SDSU wrestlers — Tanner Sloan, Henry Pohlmeyer, Zach Carlson and Tanner Cook — earned seeds in their respective weight classes at the national tournament (canceled due to COVID-19) and one more (Danny Vega) was chosen as an alternate. As a team, the Jackrabbits went 12-6 in duals, a nine-win improvement in Damion Hahn’s second year as the head coach.

Women’s basketball Eight months after making history by advancing to the Sweet 16 for the first time in program history, the SDSU women’s basketball program reached another milestone.

Nov. 29, 2019, SDSU became just the 14th Division I women’s program to notch 1,000 all-time wins by taking down Notre Dame. The Jackrabbits finished the season with 23 wins and reached their tenth Summit League Tournament title game in 12 years.
