South Dakota State senior Mike Daum and Summit League history have been linked together a lot throughout his collegiate career and Thursday’s release of the 2018-19 men’s basketball postseason awards only strengthened that bond.

Daum’s name is scattered throughout the league’s record book and his latest accolades – a third Player of the Year honor and fourth All-Summit League First Team selection – have only been achieved by one league player before him, Oral Roberts’ Caleb Green (2003-07).

A second Jackrabbit and a USD Coyote joined Daum on the all league first team.

First Team
Mike Daum, South Dakota State (Sr., F)****
Mitch Hahn, Omaha (Sr., F)
Zach Jackson, Omaha (Sr., G)**
David Jenkins, South Dakota State (So., G)**
John Konchar, Purdue Fort Wayne (Sr., G)****
Stanley Umude, South Dakota (So., F)
