Scouting the Coyotes
South Dakota dropped their second straight Summit League game on Thursday as they fell 80-59 to IUPUI. The Coyotes got a game-high 18 points from Polly Harrington, who was only Coyote to reach double figures. Lisa Loeffler and Margaret McCloud scored nine points each. Leading scorer Nicole Seekamp took three shots and was held scoreless for the first time in her collegiate career. Seekamp played 22 minutes in her second game back from an ankle injury that forced her to miss two games.
The Coyotes are just 3-7 this season on the road, having lost three of their last four games away from Vermillion, with one of those loses came at the hands of No. 19 Nebraska, 87-53. South Dakota also went on the road earlier in the season to Iowa State, where they fell to the 18th ranked Cyclones 88-72.
