Featured Inductee
Jean Jackson
When it comes to Klawock basketball, Jackson is in a class by herself. She led the Chieftains to eight state title games – four as a player and four as a coach – and helped Klawock become the first school to win five Class 1A state championships before making the jump to Class 2A and winning another state title at that level.
A decorated player who earned all-conference and all-state honors, her fingerprints were all over Klawock’s success during her four seasons as a player as the team won three straight state championships in 1987, 1988 and 1989. Jackson was a four-time all-conference selection and a four-time all-tournament pick at state. Those that were fortunate enough to see her play easily saw her passion, grit, and purpose when she was on the floor,” said Jim Holien. “She was a true champion.”
