- 2024
Jackson became one of the most decorated athletes in Pitt history regardless of sport. She was a four-year All-American, becoming at that time just the fourth Pitt athlete to accomplish the feat (joining football's Tony Dorsett and fellow women's swimmers Kathy Stetler and Suzanne Pulley). Jackson earned All-America citations in an incredible 20 events: the 50-yard butterfly (twice); 100-yard butterfly (four); 200-yard butterfly (once); 100-yard freestyle (twice); 200-yard freestyle (twice); 200-yard free relay (once); 400-yard free relay (four); 800-yard free relay (three); and 400-yard medley relay (once). She also captured Eastern championships in the 50 butterfly, 100 butterfly, 200 freestyle and 400 free relay. Her name is inscribed on the Varsity Walk as a recipient of the prestigious Blue-Gold Award.
