Summary:[Jackson] ranks among the Big 12's best in six categories. Her 5.2 assists and 2.6 steals a game are third in the league. [Caton Hill], healthy and back in the lineup, is the team's top rebounder (6.1), but Jackson (5.8) isn't far behind. Jackson helped Oklahoma, which appears to be a lock for the NCAA Tournament, to a sixth-place finish in the Big 12. The Sooners open the Phillips 66 Big 12 tournament against Texas A&M on Tuesday. This season, Jackson showed she is more comfortable in any role for the Sooners. That wasn't the case a year ago. But the injury to Hill left Jackson, a reserve on Oklahoma's Final Four team in 2002, as the only Sooner with significant experience.
