With state bragging rights and a Showdown Series point on the line, the South Dakota State women's basketball team plays in-state rival South Dakota Sunday. Tipoff for the South Dakota Showdown Series game, presented by South Dakota Corn, is at 1 p.m. at the Sanford Coyote Sports Center.
Â
Tabbed "the South Dakota Derby" by espnW's Graham Hays, Sunday's game is the earliest in the season the teams have met since 2012-13 when the Jackrabbits won 72-60 in Frost Jan. 6.
Â
SDSU is 10-5 overall and tied for first in The Summit League standings with a 2-0 record. USD is fourth in the league standings at 1-1 and sports a 13-3 overall record.
Â
South Dakota State continued its five-game road trip that took it to four states with an 85-52 win at Purdue Fort Wayne Thursday. Madison Guebert led three Jackrabbits in double digits with a game-high 16 points.
Â
South Dakota has lost two of its last three games, including a 104-99 loss at Denver Thursday.
Â
Sunday's game will be the 86th meeting between the Jackrabbits and the Yotes. SDSU leads the series 56-29.

Showdown Series, Presented by SD Corn
The South Dakota Showdown Series, presented by South Dakota Corn, tracks head-to-head match-ups and conference championship results between South Dakota State and South Dakota in 17 sports, with each school accumulating points toward the overall series championship.
Â
The Jackrabbits currently lead, 4-3, in the 2018-19 series, and will look to regain the year-end crown after USD claimed it in 2017-18. Two points are on the line Sunday between the men's and women's basketball matchups.
Â
The Series also recognizes outstanding academic achievement by the schools' student-athletes and aims to raise awareness, funds and donations for Feeding South Dakota, a statewide not-for-profit with the goal of eliminating hunger in South Dakota. More information can be found at SDCornShowdown.com.Â
Â
As part of the SD Corn Showdown Series, Feeding South Dakota and both teams have come together for orange, the color that represents awareness for hunger.
At the conclusion of last year's Showdown Series, Feeding South Dakota was able to provide 280,000 meals for adults and children throughout the state because of a generous $70,000 donation from South Dakota Corn.
With the "Get off the Bench" campaign, fans are encouraged to donate in support of hunger awareness and the fight to end hunger by texting SHOWDOWN to 80077 to donate $10 to Feed South Dakota.
