Hometown Hero – Jackson Colton, Lincoln
PROVIDENCE, RI (WPRI) — This week's Cardi's Furniture & Mattresses Hometown Sports Hero is Jackson Colton. The Lincoln Senior recorded 11 kills in the Division II Volleyball State Championship game, helping Lincoln sweep the Pawtucket Co-Op Team, and complete a perfect season. It was the Lions second Division II Title in three seasons and the second in school history and it helped validate Colton's decision to give up Basketball to pursue Volleyball full-time. 'I started out as a basketball player too and Jackson, like me, just found his passion more here,' said Lions Head Coach Lyndsey Larson. 'But he's a great athlete in general, and this year he's just led our team not only on the court, but emotionally. He's a monumental player in the growth and progress of Lincoln Volleyball.' His second Championship, in his Senior season, just a little sweeter. 'I mean Coach said it before we got here today, winning this one would be special because this is with my guys, this is my class,' Colton said. 'I feel a tight bond with them, so I mean I have to go with this one. It might also be recency bias, but you know being the underdog in my Sophomore year was also awesome, but this was definitely the one.' Jackson will continue his career at Wheaton College. The Lyons will open their first Varsity season under Head Coach Scott Reslow next Winter. Reslow was one of the winningest coaches in College Volleyball at Johnson and Wales before the Wildcats decided to drop their program in 2020. Continued focus on Volleyball should bring Colton more success at the next level. 'I mean I'm so excited getting the privilege to play at the college level. Forever I thought I was going to do it with Basketball but making the transition over to Volleyball. getting to play with a great Coach in Coach Reslow, a new program I truly believe in as well as getting to play with my Setter, he's coming with me to Wheaton. Reuniting with him, keeping the dynamic duo together, it's just amazing, the best feeling.' 'He's gotten so much better in just a year playing Club Volleyball, I mean the skies the limit for Jackson,' Larson said. 'He's going places.'
