The former Washington Post All-Met Player of the Year finally found her fit in her third school in five years.
Jackson averages 11.4 points per game for the Bears. By Ava Wallace Ava Wallace Reporter covering local colleges and universities Email Bio Follow April 5 at 10:49 AM TAMPA — After one fractured foot and two years on the sidelines, Chloe Jackson was on her third basketball program in five seasons when Baylor Coach Kim Mulkey spelled it out for her.
“I couldn’t have written my story any better,” said Jackson, the 2014 Washington Post All-Met Player of the Year in high school at Riverdale Baptist. But both years, LSU lost in the first round of the NCAA tournament. Jackson clenches her first and bounces it on her knee at the memory. When Morris was dismissed from the program in September for violating team rules, Jackson had to switch positions.
The Associated Press coach of the year is a former point guard herself, and she is famously demanding of the position. Mulkey trusted Jackson to handle the transition because she knew all those years it took finding the right fit in college made Jackson patient and mature.
