The Summit League women’s basketball regular season title is on the line as South Dakota hosts South Dakota State Wednesday night.

The Coyotes enter the game with a 13-0 mark in conference games and 23-5 overall. They also own a win over SDSU in their first meeting this season in Brookings. A win in Vermillion clinches the Summit crown.

The Jackrabbits are 22-5 on the year and 11-1 in league play. An SDSU win Wednesday coupled with a win at Fort Wayne Saturday could earn them a share of the title.

Tipoff time is 7 p.m. and the game can be heard on 570 WNAX.
