The 5’10” lead guard is a leader on the floor that understands the game and gets his teammates involved. Also is a solid mid-range jump shooter. Jackson spoke with us about his final run on the circuit with the Illinois Wolves 17U.
“I started off slow during the spring, but picked it up in the summer and produced a lot for my team.”
Where did he see his game develop this summer?
“Playing with more poise, shooting with more confidence, and picking it up on defense.”
Riverside Brookfield will have a great perimeter quartet with Jackson, Skyler Nash, Jalen Clanton, and Henry Trelenberg that should carry them throughout the season. He spoke with us about how open gyms and fall leagues are going leading up to the season.
“They have been going good. It’s been very competitive.”
Jackson doesn’t hold any offers, but has spoken with Illinois Springfield, University of Mary, and Western Illinois.
