South Dakota women’s basketball has moved back into the Associated Press Top 25 this week at No. 22.

It marks the highest ranking the Coyotes have earned in the AP Top 25 in four weeks of being ranked the last two seasons.

No. 22 South Dakota (14-2, 3-0) kicked off Summit League action with three wins in eight days by an average scoring margin of 32 points.

South Dakota is ranked in the AP Top 25 for the second time this season, previously clocking in at No. 25 on Dec. 16. Prior to this year, only four other Summit League teams had ever made it into the AP Top 25 with one of those being the 2018-19 Coyotes.

UConn cruised to two more conference wins and remained No. 1 in The Associated Press women’s college basketball poll to start off 2020.
