The NCAA Division II high jump champion in 2012, Jackson collected four All-American honors in the event, earning both indoor and outdoor awards in the 2011-12 and 2013-14 seasons.

It wasn't just the vertical jump she excelled at as Jackson accumulated seven All-RMAC honors from the high jump, long jump and triple jump events.

A 10th-place finisher in the high jump at the 2016 U.S. Olympic Trials, Jackson continues to own the third-best height in D-II history for the outdoor event at 1.91-meters (6 feet-3.25 inches). And her indoor best of 1.85m (6-0.75) is sixth all time in D-II.

On the Western program's all-time women's top-10 lists she ranks tied for first in the outdoor high jump, second in the indoor event (6-00.75), fourth in the outdoor long (5.86m, 19-2.75) and triple (12.31m, 40-4.75) jumps, and eighth in the indoor triple jump (11.65m, 38-2.75).
