“Jada arrives with excellent sprint and hurdle performances, but we believe she has tremendous upside and that she can continue the tradition of great hurdlers we’ve had over the years. She captained her team to a state title and had earned All-American honors and won several national Jr Olympic titles -- because of this, we believe she can compete at a relatively high level immediately. We envision Jada challenging for Ivy titles and advancing to the NCAA first round as a rookie.”  -Coach Tolbert
