Last but not least I was able to get some spare time from senior guard Chad Jackson a few weeks ago. Jackson is averaging 8.1 points, 5.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game this season. The Lexington native plays big for his size as he is their second leading rebounder and has slapped up a few double double’s this season.
CJ= Chad Jackson
JS= Jesse Smith
JS= What player or players past or present do you try to mold your game after?
CJ= I don’t know if I try to mold my game after anybody, but Tracy McGrady is my favorite player of all time. I don’t know if I play like him, but he’s somebody I look up to.
JS= What is the strongest aspect of your game?
CJ= Getting people involved, driving ability and rebounding.
JS= Are you excited about conference play?
CJ= Oh yeah, I’m defiantly excited, that’s the best part. We finally get to play in the conference tournament and being able to win it.
JS= What does Chad do for fun?
CJ= I watch Netflix (Currently catching up on Prison Break).
The Norse have one regular season game left and that’s this Saturday, Good luck to Chad and the Norse the rest of the season. Hopefully they can land a home Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament game.
