South Dakota women’s basketball head coach Dawn Plitzuweit has announced the addition of Jason Jeschke to her staff.
Jeschke replaces Russ Rose, who accepted an assistant coaching position in his home state of Michigan.
“We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Jason and his wife, Courtney, to our USD women’s basketball program,” said Plitzuweit. “Jason has a fantastic basketball mind, has been successful as both an assistant coach and head coach, and most importantly is a great person with a passion for creating positive experiences and caring for student-athletes.”
Jeschke comes to South Dakota after spending the past three seasons as the head coach at Oklahoma Wesleyan University. In that time, the Eagles posted a 58-38 overall record and a 31-24 record in conference play. Jeschke recruited and coached 11 all-conference players and one NAIA All-American at OKWU. His 2015-16 team finished fifth nationally in scoring offense with 83.5 points per game.
