She began work on her master's degree this spring. In the classroom, Lamb graduated in December with her bachelor's degree in kinesiology and sport management and a 3.78 cumulative grade-point average. She also ranks third in career scoring (1,884), second for career 3-pointers made (253) and seventh for career steals (196) in USD history. Lamb set South Dakota program records for career games played (162) and consecutive games played (162), never missing a single game in five seasons. USD boasted a 135-27 (.833) record during her career. South Dakota won three Summit League regular season titles (2018, 2020, 2022) and three Summit tournament titles (2020, 2021, 2022) in her career. Lamb was a three-time all-Summit League pick, thrice named to the Summit's all-tournament team and made the league's inaugural all-defensive team this season.Ī native of Onida, South Dakota, Lamb played in four-straight NCAA Tournaments for the Coyotes and was a member of two squads that finished in the final national Top 25 poll of the season. She was the 2022 Summit League Player of the Year and the Summit League Tournament MVP for the second-straight season. Lamb led the Coyotes on a historic run to the NCAA Tournament's Sweet 16. The NCAA Woman of the Year program was established in 1991 to recognize graduating female college athletes who have exhausted their NCAA eligibility and distinguished themselves in academics, athletics, service and leadership throughout their collegiate careers. There were a total of 577 institutional-level nominees this year across the three divisions. Lamb is one of 151 college athletes who have advanced as conference-level nominees and one of 53 at the NCAA Division I level. Here's a look at Michigan's entire scholarship chart (with Houstan and Diabate on it) as offseason developments continue into the month of May.VERMILLION, S.D.-Women's basketball standout Chloe Lamb has been selected as The Summit League's nominee for the 2022 NCAA Woman of the Year. would hit the transfer portal hard with scholarships available, but we'll have to wait and see what the rising sophomore duo does. If one or both of Diabate and Houstan leave, that would obviously open up some roster space for Juwan Howard to think about. We'll see how much guys like Jace Howard, Isaiah Barnes and Will Tschetter contribute this season, but they seem like depth bodies at best right now. There's obviously some veteran experience and production from guys like Dickinson and Llewellyn, with some lower-level experience from Terrence Williams, Houstan and Diabate (again, contingent upon the latter two returning) that could morph into high-level play this season, accompanied by high-upside potential from a guy like Kobe Bufkin and then plenty of unknown from a talented, four-man freshman class. If Diabate stays in the draft, that would all but guarantee that we'll see Reed often during his freshman campaign. It's going to be interesting to see how much he plays given Michigan's current roster make up.įinally, Tarris Reed, a 6-10, 260-pound center out of Branson (Mo.) Link Academy, will be Michigan's only other true center on the roster behind Dickinson, so he'll likely earn minutes as a rookie this season. He could be a bit of a liability on defense at the Big Ten level because of his lack size, but definitely not because of his lack of tenacity and effort. At just 5-11 and 167 pounds, McDaniel is diminutive, but he's an absolute blur with the ball, can finish in transition with the best of them and has improved as an outside shooter. Llewellyn can definitely play the spot, but he's not a true 1 like McDaniel is. How much he plays might also depend on Houstan's final decision, but we'll likely see him regardless.ĭug McDaniel is another intriguing players because Michigan is very thin at point guard. He can defend, shoot from the outside, get to the basket and he's a heady, smart player. At 6-7, 220 pounds, he too is physically ready for the next level and has a complete game that will likely result in minutes. The 6-7, 215-pounder out of Fort Lauderdale (Fla.) Calvary Christian Academy is physically ready for the college game, but he needs polish and figures to be behind guys like Jace Howard, Terrence Williams, Jett Howard and Caleb Houstan (if he returns) as a versatile, wing player who can play multiple positions. Gregg Glenn III is the one player who may not be needed in year one.
