The Dakota State University women’s basketball team is experiencing something new. A losing streak. After a pair of losses to ranked opponents this weekend, the Trojans find themselves with a four game losing streak for the first time since the 2019-2020 campaign. The early struggles leave the Trojans looking to regroup as they prepare for another top team tonight.

The Trojans opened the season with a 97-24 victory over Walla Walla before losing to Oregon Tech, 91-87. Since then, Dakota State has suffered three more losses.

There was an 83-75 setback against Grand View on October 31. The Trojans then dropped both games at the Cattle Classic in Nebraska, falling 71-56 to #2 Dakota Wesleyan on Friday before losing 64-54 to #10 Concordia on Saturday.

Against Concordia, Dakota State struggled offensively in the second half, scoring just 19 points after halftime. The Trojans were led by Bria Wasmund with 14 points.

Dakota State will look to snap the losing streak Tuesday when it faces seventh-ranked Dordt at the Sanford Sports Complex in Sioux Falls. Tipoff is scheduled for 5:30 p.m, followed by the men’s game.

The Trojans will be at home for the first time on November 21st, to take on Bellevue.
