Arlington’s Jaelyn Huntimer headlines the 2025-26 Class B girls basketball all-state team, as selected by the South Dakota Basketball Coaches Association. Huntimer received the most all-state votes and was selected as the Class B player of the year. 

She was joined on the first team by Colman-Egan’s Brynlee Landis, Bennett County’s Peyson O’Neill, Centerville’s Izzie Eide and Lyman’s Jordyn and Mak Scott.

Huntimer was a first-team selection last season, and a third-team honoree in 2024. A 5-foot-9 guard, Huntimer averaged 28.8 points and 10.3 rebounds a game this season totaling 77 steals. The future Dordt University Defender ended her career with 1,891 points.

Landis, another Dordt women’s basketball commit, was selected to her second-straight all-state team averaging 20.5 points, 8.2 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game this season, including 65 steals. She was a second-team honoree last season. She guided Colman-Egan to its first state tournament since 2009, taking eighth-place.

O’Neill, a 6-foot freshman, was a second-team selection last season after leading the Warriors to the state championship. She’s the first Warrior girls basketball player to earn first-team honors since her mother Abby accomplished the feat in 2006.

O’Neill guided the Warriors back to the state tournament with a consolation championship this season. She averaged 21 points, 10 rebounds and six assists per game with 70 steals this season.

Eide, a 5-foot-9 sophomore guard, was an all-state second-team selection last season. She averaged 20 points and seven rebounds per game this season with 73 steals, helping the Tornadoes to a seventh-place finish at the state tournament. Eide scored her 1,000th career point earlier this season, and holds offers to Black Hills State and Augustana.

Jordyn Scott, a 5-foot-11 sophomore, earned her first all-state selection this season after averaging 18.3 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3.3 assists with 73 steals. Jordyn holds offers to Southwest Minnesota State as well as Black Hills State. She currently has 1,041 points, 396 rebounds, 279 assists, 265 steals and 122 blocks through her sophomore season.

Mak Scott, a 6-foot senior forward, ends her illustrious career with a third-consecutive selection to the Class B all-state team. She was a first-team selection in 2025 and a second-team honoree in 2024. 

She averaged 15.2 points, 9.5 rebounds and three assists per game this season and holds school records in career points (2,073), rebounds (970), assists (377), steals (302) and blocks (272). Scott’s point total puts her 29th on South Dakota’s all-time girls basketball scoring list.

Mak and Jordyn Scott guided Lyman to the state tournament, taking sixth place.
