SIOUX FALLS – South Dakota State’s Myah Selland has been named to the Academic All-League Team, the league office announced Wednesday.
Selland boasts a 3.97 grade point average in exercise science and community and public health. On the court, she has been named Summit League Player of the Year, an All-Summit League First Team selection and a finalist for the Becky Hammon Mid-Major Player of the Year this season.
The Letcher native led the Jackrabbits and the Summit League with 19.2 points per game, including 19.5 points per game in Summit League play. She scored 15-plus points in 19 games this season, including 20-plus points on six occasions, and registered five double-doubles.
She shot 51.5 percent from the field and 32.8 percent from beyond the arc. The redshirt junior added 6.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.3 steals per game. Additionally, Selland was a six-time Summit League Player of the Week and two-time Female Athlete of the Month honoree this season.
