OREM—Utah Valley head coach
Mark Madsen has announced that Timpanogos High School guard Jackson Holcombe has signed a national letter of intent to play for the Wolverines.
"Jackson Holcombe is a force to be reckoned with on the court," said Madsen. "As a first team all-state selection, his game exploded this past season. Jackson was No. 1 in the state of Utah in total made free throws and No. 24 in the nation in made free throws. I love players who attack the rim and draw fouls. At 6-foot-6, 200 pounds, he played point guard at Timpanogos High School while putting up excellent assist numbers under the mentorship of his high school coach Izzy Ingle. Jackson has the height and the vision to see over the top of defenses. He can knock down the three or dunk at the rim. Jackson Holcombe is the swiss army knife of basketball. His versatility allows him to contribute to the team in a vast number of ways. I could not be more excited to welcome Jackson Holcombe and his family to UVU."
Holcombe, a 6-foot-6, 200-pound guard, was a first team all-state this past season at Timpanogos High School. He earned multiple all-state and all-region honors during his time at THS, leading the Timberwolves to a pair of regional championships. Holcombe led the state in both free throws made, and free throws attempted last season. He wrapped up his senior season by breaking the THS single season points record. Holcombe also spent time playing for the Salt Lake Rebels and the Utah Prospects.
Holcombe will serve a two-year mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints before returning to begin his career with UVU during the 2023-24 season.
