14 Questions with Jazmyn:
You finished your high school career and immediately jumped into college life… how has that gone?
High school ended June 6th but I didn’t attend the last few days of school nor did I walk in graduation as I decided to take advantage of the amazing opportunity of summer classes at Mizzou to get me a little bit ahead, allowing myself to not have as much of the pressure it is to be a student-athlete for U of M. I’m really happy to have started a new chapter in my life.
