South Dakota State men’s basketball edges out South Dakota in rivalry matchup

The South Dakota State men’s basketball team (13-11, 6-3) overcame a poor shooting performance in the second half to beat South Dakota (9-15, 2-7) 70-67 and sweep this year’s Interstate Series.

SDSU made just 32% of their shots in the second half while USD shot 41%.

The win elevates the Jackrabbits back to tied for first in the Summit League with North Dakota.

SDSU had four players in double figures: William Kyle III with a team-high 16, Luke Appel scored 15, and Zeke Mayo and Charlie Easley each had 12.

South Dakota was led by Kaleb Stewart who ended the night with a game-high 27 points.

State Sen. Anthony Kern making his way back to Phoenix after icy crash in South Dakota

State Sen. Anthony Kern, R-Glendale, announced on the social media platform X on Sunday that he had left the hospital, about a week after breaking bones and suffering other injuries in a single-car crash in South Dakota.

Kern, who was visiting family, was riding with a friend through a snowstorm when the car hit ice and the driver lost control.

He posted that he was out of the critical stage and making his way back to Phoenix, but he couldn’t fly due to a collapsed lung.

Kern is finishing his first state Senate term after three terms in the state House. This fall, he opted to run for a congressional seat rather than seek a return to the state Capitol but lost the GOP race for Congressional District 8 to Abe Hamadeh.

RAPID CITY, S.D. (KOTA) – Partly cloudy skies are expected. A stray shower or two will be possible, but chances aren’t great. Highs will be in the 40s and 50s for much of KOTA Territory.

Wind gusts could range from 30 to 40 mph at times – especially across western South Dakota.

We’ll remain mild all Christmas week with highs in the 40s to near 50°. Mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies will be likely all week long. It could get a little breezy on Christmas Day, but nothing too crazy.
