Jackson Tomlin brings steady guard play and timely shooting for Howard Payne
In the 2025-26 season, freshman guard Jackson Tomlin has been a compact, efficient backcourt piece for Howard Payne, averaging 4.5 points and 2.0 assists per game while shooting 50.0% from the field and 40.0% from three, which hints at a poised role player rather than a volume scorer. He’s shown flashes as a stabilizer—like a 7-point, 4-assist outing against Texas A&M-Corpus Christi and a 15-point game vs. Buena Vista—while his small-frame guard profile suggests speed, touch, and connective passing are his calling cards.
