Jackson began her playing career at NC State. After four games at NC, she spent two years as a substitute player due to a fractured foot.[4][6] She later transferred to LSU for three years and then to Baylor.[7] Returning to play, coach Kim Mulkey made her a point guard despite having played as a shooting guard her entire career.[6] Regardless, she became a standout player on the team,[8] helping the team win the 2019 National Championship and becoming the NCAA Division I basketball tournament Most Outstanding Player.[9][7] In 2019, she was named Newcomer of the Year by the Waco Tribune-Herald.[10] By the end of her college career, she had more than fifty graduate transfer offers.[11] In 2019, she was ranked the 15th best shooting guard nationally,[5] falling to 19th by 2021.[4] She was named girl basketball player of the year by The Washington Post.[4]
