Ayon sa SBP, blessing si Jack para sa women’s basketball dito sa Pilipinas. Masaya aniya sila sa pagkakatalaga sa kanya para sa Women in Basketball program.

 “Aside from winning five straight championships in the UAAP, what really sets Jack apart was that she was always available when the country needed her services on the international stage may it be for 3×3 or five on five.”

“We know how passionate she is about elevating Filipina basketball players by giving them a bigger stage and that’s why she’s perfect for the role,” sabi ni SBP President Al Panlilio.
