South Dakota State snapped its five game losing streak with its first-ever Summit League road win last Saturday at Western Illinois, and then started its second winning streak of the season wit a 95-70 win over Southwest Minnesota State on Tuesday at Frost Arena.

Garrett Callahan scored a personal and team season-high 27 points in the win over SMSU on 8-of-10 shooting to lead four Jackrabbits in double figures. Kai Williams added 16 points, Tony Fiegen added 11 points and Clint Sargent 10.

SMSU scored the first two points of the game, but SDSU answered with a 10-0 run and then continued to build its lead to as high as 19 points in the first half before taking a 13 point, 41-28 lead into the lockerroom.

The Jacks increased their lead a game-high 28 points in the second half before eventually reaching the final 25-point margin.

The Jacks now turn their attention to Nevada, who also played and won at home on Tuesday against a lower level team, as the Wolf Pack downed Fresno-Pacific 89-67.
