Jakieya Thompson gives North Carolina A&T a young, active backcourt piece
Jakieya Thompson is a **freshman guard** for North Carolina A&T who is already active at the Division I level, making her a player to watch for upside and development. ESPN lists her as **#1** on the Aggies with a **5'7"** frame and active status, which suggests a compact guard profile built for pace, pressure, and growth rather than finished-production dominance yet.[1] The main reason to care is her projection: if she translates college speed and decision-making quickly, she could become a reliable two-way fit for a team that values energy, guard depth, and long-term upside.[1][3]
