Macy Stanage (formerly Macy Miller) returned to Brookings for her second stint on AJ's staff and first as an assistant coach for the 2024-25 season. She is responsible for developing SDSU’s perimeter players, teaching team offense and defense and assisting with recruiting.
Stanage, a Mitchell, South Dakota native, previously spent three seasons at NAIA Northwestern as an assistant coach under Kristin Rotert (SDSU 2011), where she helped the Red Raiders go 62-32 and make three trips to the NAIA National Tournament.
As a graduate assistant with the Jackrabbits for the 2020-21 season, Stanage helped SDSU return to the top of the Summit League and capture its sixth regular season title. State posted a 14-0 conference record, going undefeated in Summit League action for the first time in program history. The squad topped three nationally ranked opponents throughout the season, defeating No. 15 Iowa State, No. 18 Gonzaga and No. 20 Missouri State.
The Jacks earned its 10th NCAA Tournament berth with the program's first ever at-large bid. SDSU finished the season with a 21-4 record, falling to No. 8-seeded Syracuse in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. State spent nine weeks ranked in the AP Top 25 Poll and eight weeks in the USA TODAY/Coaches Poll during the 2020-21 season. The Jacks ranked as high as 21st in the Coaches Poll and No. 22 in the AP Poll.Â
Stanage played basketball professionally for one season in Spain for Baxi Ferrol. She started all 21 games, averaging 11.7 points per game and dishing a team best 3.6 assists per game. Additionally, Stanage averaged 4.4 rebounds and 2 steals per game.
Prior to her time playing overseas, Stanage was the second Jackrabbit women's basketball player to be selected in the WNBA draft. She was a third round pick by the Seattle Storm.
Stanage was honored as the Summit League Player of the Year during both the 2017-18 and 2018-19 seasons. Her 2,355 career points are both SDSU and Summit League records. The three-time All-Summit League First Team selection also graduated as State's all-time field goal (843) and free throw leader (501). As Macy Miller, Stanage started all 144 contests that she appeared in for the Jackrabbits. Throughout her career she tallied 428 assists, 168 steals and 755 rebounds. As a senior, she scored in double figures in 31 of the Jackrabbits' 35 games as they reached the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament for the first time in program history.
Stanage graduated from South Dakota State with a degree in exercise science.
Stanage and her husband, Steven, reside in Brookings.Â
