INDIANAPOLIS -- South Dakota State's Douglas Wilson was selected to the United States Basketball Writers Association (USBWA) All-District VI team, announced this week by the organization.Â
Wilson paced the Jackrabbits all season with 18.6 points and 6.4 rebounds per game, posting double figure scoring performances in 27 of 29 appearances with 20 or more points in 12 contests. The Des Moines, Iowa product shot 64.1 percent from the field in league play (second in the Summit League behind teammate Matt Dentlinger) and twice dropped 31 points on a league opponent. The 2019-20 Summit League Player of the Year and All-Summit League First Team pick shot above 60 percent in all but three league contests, and immediately made his mark on the Jackrabbits after earning 2018-19 NJCAA Player of the Year honors a year ago.
South Dakota State joins Creighton, Iowa State and Kansas as the only programs in District VI to have a selection in each of the past four years. The USBWA will release its 2019-20 Men's All-America team on March 16.
