Syracuse Coming In: Syracuse had an up and down regular season, but finished playing good basketball. Despite not having Tiana Mangakahia (injury), Priscilla Williams (injury) and several other players (violation of team rules), Syracuse beat Florida State and was competitive against Louisville. Mangakahia will be back for the Orange, but Williams is still dealing with her head injury and did not travel with the team. The suspended players (Kiara Fisher, Faith Blackstone, Taleah Washington and Khamya McNeal) also did not make the trip.

South Dakota State Coming In: South Dakota State was the Summit League regular season champion, but was shocked in the conference tournament by Omaha. This was the first at large bid in program history. The Jackrabbits are led by junior forward Myah Selland, who averages 19.2 points and 6.8 rebounds per game. Tylee Erwin is the team's best outside shooter at 40.2% from beyond the arc. She averages 13.3 points per game.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting. EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans. After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years. Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports. Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
