South Dakota State women’s basketball player Macy Miller will officially have two more years to play the Jackrabbits, competing as a junior in 2017-18.

The Mitchell native was granted an additional year of eligibility by The Summit League after playing just nine games in 2016-17 due to a season-ending injury.

“This is great news for Macy and her family. Her rehab is going very well and I know she is anxious to get back on the court,” 17th-year head coach Aaron Johnston said. “A big thanks to our compliance staff and sports medicine staff for working so hard on the necessary paperwork.”

Miller is a two-time All-Summit League honoree and was the 2016 Summit League Tournament Most Valuable Player and a two-time member of the all-tournament team. She ranks 32nd on the Jackrabbits’ 1,000-point scoring list, entering the 2017-18 season with 1,114 points.
