AUSTIN, Texas (Nov. 18, 2021) - Washington State EDGE Brennan Jackson was named to the 2021 Academic All-District Team selected by CoSIDA Thursday afternoon.
Jackson recorded a 3.31 grade-point-average while earning his bachelor's degree in business administration and currently owns a 4.00 GPA while working towards his MBA. The redshirt-junior is the first Cougar to earn academic all-district honors since wide receiver Brandon Arconado and defensive lineman Dallas Hobbs each earned first-team accolades in 2019.
Jackson has appeared in all 10 games including nine as a starter and recorded 35 tackles with 4.5 for loss including 3.5 sacks, tied for 10th-most in the Pac-12 Conference. Earlier this season, Jackson was named the Pac-12 Defensive Lineman of the Week after recording a season-high six tackles including one sack and recovered the game-ending fumble in the win against Stanford.
