Tayla Jackson brings size, rebounding, and steady frontcourt production to UC Irvine
Jackson is a 6-foot-1 forward who gives UC Irvine a dependable interior presence: in her freshman season she started 14 of 31 games, averaged 4.0 points and 3.6 rebounds, and posted a career-high 17 points in one game, showing she can step up when needed.[1][3][5] ESPN’s season line also shows efficient scoring touch for a role player, with 44.4% field-goal shooting.[4] The key differentiator is her size-plus-rebounding profile, which makes her useful for a team that needs physicality, second-chance opportunities, and a low-drama, blue-collar frontcourt fit.[1][4]
