According to Crane
“Jordon is one of the better players to come out of the state of Kansas. She is a great scorer, shooter and team leader. She is a competitor from start to finish and is a player who wants the ball when the game is on the line. Not only will she fit into our program, but she will make it more exciting to watch.”
