My Place Hotels Proud to Sponsor Another Summit League Tournament

March means basketball, and in 2026, it also marks three years of the My Place Hotels/Summit League partnership. We are once again a proud sponsor of the Men's and Women's basketball championships.

Hosted in Sioux Falls, SD at the Denny Sanford Premier Center, this annual NCAA Division I tournament brings together 9 midwestern universities to compete for an automatic bid to the national championship, while also marking an exciting close to the season.

With more than 80 locations nationwide, My Place Hotels continues to strengthen its presence in the Midwest through partnerships like this. Events such as the Summit League Championships provide a unique opportunity for our team to connect with communities, engage with fans, and capture the energy of the tournament firsthand. The My Place Hotels' team was on-site to take in the games, document the action, and see the excitement for themselves.

At My Place Hotels, building meaningful relationships with cities where we operate is at the heart of what we do. Partnerships like the Summit League not only allow us to support collegiate athletics, but also reinforce our commitment by showing up, engaging locally, and growing alongside the communities we serve. 

Megan Kukowski, Director of Marketing - My Place Hotels of America

“Each year, the Summit League Basketball Championships remind us why this partnership is so meaningful to My Place Hotels. With a strong presence in the cities and states the teams call home, My Place is able to truly show up for fans, athletes, and communities in an authentic way. And with our roots right here in SD, it’s especially rewarding to see the energy and impact of the tournament come to life in a place that means so much to our brand.”

This year's championships delivered standout performances and unforgettable moments on both sides of the bracket. On the women's side, the South Dakota State Jackrabbits secured the title with an impressive run throughout the tournament. 

On the men's side, the North Dakota State Bison rose to the occasion, battling through the competition to claim the championship and earn their spot on the national stage. 

From buzzer-beaters to dominant stretches on the court, this year's Summit League Championships once again highlighted the high level of talent and competitive spirit that defines the tournament, making it an unforgettable experience for fans, teams, and partners alike. 

As the final buzzer sounds on another unforgettable tournament, My Place Hotels is proud to continue its journey alongside The Summit League. Celebrating not just the champions on the court, but the communities, fans, and stories that make events like this so impactful. We look forward to building on this partnership in the years ahead, bringing our team closer to the moments that matter and continuing to support the spirits of competition, connection, and community across the Midwest and beyond.
