UTRGV’s do-it-all guard and the Southland’s breakout engine
In the 2025-26 season, Jalayah Ingram has been UTRGV’s tone-setter, leading the Vaqueros in scoring while also piling up assists and steals, which says a lot about her two-way impact and pace control[1][11][12]. She’s a high-usage guard who can create her own shot, get to the line, and stuff the stat sheet, highlighted by a 31-point, eight-rebound, five-assist outburst and Southland Newcomer of the Year honors in 2026[5][10]. If you want a competitive, versatile backcourt catalyst with proven production and a ready-made feel for winning games, she’s a fit.
