Jackson batted .330 with 34 hits, 10 of which were doubles. He had 19 runs batted in, scored 30 runs and stole 17 bases. Jackson’s on-base percentage was .489.
Jackson makes the 18th Hewitt-Trussville baseball player to commit/sign to play baseball at the collegiate level since Jeff Mauldin became the head coach after the 2012 season.
Mauldin has led the Huskies to a 65-23 record in his two seasons. He’s 459-136 overall since becoming a varsity head coach in 2000.
