Sophie Haydon brings veteran size, rebounding grit, and low-mistake frontcourt minutes for South Dakota
In the 2024-25 season, Sophie Haydon was a senior forward for South Dakota at 6'1" and gave the Coyotes steady frontcourt depth rather than headline scoring, with ESPN listing her as active and the roster noting her senior status. Her earlier Coyotes stretch showed the kind of connective, team-first game coaches love: in 2022-23 she played 10 games, totaled 9 points and 15 rebounds, and also chipped in assists, steals, and blocks. If you want a physical, experienced role player who can rebound, defend, and keep the ball moving, she’s the kind of glue piece worth caring about.
