KIARA JACKSON '17 Recruiting Profile

Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile. My goal is to attend college, complete my degree in journalism and one day play basketball in the WNBA. While playing in the WNBA, I would like to later return to college and complete a law degree.

As a potential recruit, I can promise you that I will work extremely hard in the classroom, on the court, and in the community. Not only am I a consistent honor roll student, but on the court I am the leading scorer for my high school JV basketball team and I strive hard to be a leader that makes every player around me better. I also do lots of work within my community like delivering toys to families during the Toys for Tots campaign, I have volunteered at Safeway grocery store during their Feed the Hungry Campaign and I volunteered at a local Boys and Girls Club to support the national "Lights On" program just to name a few.

I continue to work hard during my personal time to improve my overall game. My strengths would include my rebounding, on and off-the-ball defense which allowed me to average 3.0 blocks per game, my mid-range jump shot, my overall intensity, and I'm coachable. My areas of improvement would include increasing my range on my jump shot, explosiveness and add to my ball handling skills. I believe one should never settle for mediocrity with anything, and I'm a hard worker who strives for success, so I do not plan on settling in the classroom nor on the court. If I do make it at your respected college or university, just know that you'll be getting a dedicated, motivated and hard-working young lady who looks to do her part to enhance the team and herself. Thank you for your time and reviewing my profile page.
