The 5-foot-9 senior earned first-team All-Ivy League honors after averaging 17.1 points and 4.7 rebounds in her final season in Providence, Rhode Island. Jones amassed 20 double-digit scoring outputs across 26 games played and she exceeded 20 points on nine separate occasions.

In three seasons with the Bears, Jones scored 1097 points, making her the 23rd player in the program’s history to surpass the 1000-point threshold. 

A Chicago-native, Jones previously played at Whitney M. Young Magnet before attending Worcester Academy in Massachusetts for a prep year prior to her freshman season in Providence, Rhode Island. 

Jones will provide coach Joe McKeown’s squad with a new offensive weapon and potential starter following the graduation of Maggie Pina.
