Princeville High School

Biography: 

When she graduated from Princeville High School, Jackie did not foresee that she would become a scorekeeper and timer for the Princeville boys’ and girls’ basketball teams from 1981 through 2019–38 years total. She filled the roles along with her sister in-law, Ginny Gilles, and their dedication and commitment to the basketball programs was exceptional.

Jackie and Ginny saw a lot of good basketball and, in some cases, bad basketball during their years of service. They helped out year after year without asking for any type of compensation.
