Jackson Howell '26 Recruiting Profile

My name is Jackson Howell and I am a 2026 graduate of Big Valley Christian High School in Modesto, CA.  Although I have played a variety of other sports over the years, I am currently a two-sport athlete (football and baseball) and maintain a 3.8 GPA.  This fall I enjoyed starting on our Varsity football team both ways as a wide receiver and defensive back as a sophomore.  I was even named First-Team All-League for my position as a defensive back for the second year in a row.  I am putting work in during the off-season to prepare for the upcoming baseball season, both for my high school and summer travel team. 

I have been blessed by a variety of coaches who have poured into me and helped me to become the player I am on and off the field today.  Through their influence, as well as the influence of my parents and my faith, I have developed a strong work ethic, a coachable attitude, and humble leadership skills that I use to challenge myself and my teammates.  I am often described by coaches as dedicated, respectful, positive, and a team player.  My goal is to play for a competitive baseball program at the college level while getting a quality education.
