Paris Junior College sophomore Devin Jackson from Houston, Texas, has signed to continue his education and basketball career at Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas. SHSU is in the NCAA Division I Southland Conference.
"It's a good day for Devin," said PJC Men's Basketball Coach Bobby Taylor. "I'm immensely proud for him; he's worked extremely hard to put himself in this position. It's a great look for our program to have a young man go to an established program such as Sam Houston. Couldn't be happier for him."
"I want to thank God for what he's done for me," said Jackson. "I want to thank my family, and the coaching staff at Sam Houston and at PJC."
Jackson said he will miss the brotherhood he had at PJC, "I love this school and how it felt like home."
