Black Hills State men's basketball and Head Coach Ryan Thompson have announced the signing of Jackson Edman for the 2023 season.

Edman is currently playing in his senior season at T.F. Riggs High School in Pierre while also sitting atop his class with a 4.0 GPA.

"I am thrilled to announce the addition of Jackson Edman," said Thompson. "Jackson competed at a high level in three sports throughout his high school career while maintaining a 4.0 GPA. He is extremely versatile on the basketball court with his ability to play inside and outside. Jackson's combination of strength, athleticism, toughness and skill at his size is very rare to find and should excite Yellow Jacket fans about the future of our program."
