Jackson inherits the mantle looking to build on the foundations for success set forth by former coaching greats at The College in former Tennessee Director of Women’s Athletics Joan Cronan (1974-76), Nancy Wilson (two tenures from 1976-84 and 2003-12), Scooter Barnette (1984-94), Kathy McCaskill-Rhein (1994-98), Melissa Slone (1998-2003) and Natasha Adair (2012-14). Over her first three years with the College, Jackson mentored star guard Breanna Bolden to three consecutive CAA Defensive Player of the Year honors, as well as three All-CAA nods.

She secured her first-ever CAA Tournament victory by way of a 71-62 win over the UNCW Seahawks, and came within 67 seconds of shocking the No. 1 seeded James Madison Dukes in the second round. Prior to the end of the season, Coach Jackson led the Cougars to a 68-24 win over UNCW, which set
