Playing career

[edit | edit source]

Collegiate

[edit | edit source]

In their rookie season with the University of Maine, Jackson was named to the Hockey East All-Academic Team, with a .911 SV% and 2.84 GAA in 27 starts. In 2018, they were named a WHEA All-Star Honourable Mention, after setting a single-season record for wins at the University of Maine.[1][2] By the time Jackson graduated, they would set the university's all-time records in wins, goals-against average, save percentage, and shutouts.[3][4]

Professional

[edit | edit source]

In April 2020, Jackson was selected third overall by the Buffalo Beauts in the National Women's Hockey League (NWHL) draft. A few days later, they signed their first professional contract with the team for the 2020–21 season.[5] Jackson made 43 saves in their NWHL debut, a 2–1 shootout loss to the Connecticut Whale.[6] After two seasons in Buffalo, Jackson joined the Toronto Six for the 2022–23 season.[7] They would serve as the backup to Elaine Chuli as the Six went on to win the Isobel Cup.[8]

After going undrafted in the 2023 PWHL draft, Jackson signed with PWHL Toronto following their 2023 training camp.[9] During the 2023–24 season, they were the team's third goaltender and dressed for only one game. On July 9, 2024, Jackson signed a one-year contract extension with Toronto.[10] Jackson debuted for the team on April 29, 2025, making 25 saves in a 2-1 shootout victory over the New York Sirens.[11] During the 2025 PWHL playoffs, Jackson started as the backup to Kristen Campbell against the Minnesota Frost, but after Campbell struggled in games two and three, Jackson made their playoff debut in game four, making 22 saves and losing the game in overtime 4–3, as well as the series. Minnesota would then go on to win the Walter Cup in back-to-back years. On July 9, 2025, Jackson signed a one-year contract with the Seattle Torrent.[12]
