STOCKTON u2015 Jahlil Tripp arrived to Pacific with a promise.
He pledged to turn the Tigers’ basketball program around. For three years he poured every ounce of heart and sweat into his team. And now he is at the center of Pacific’s best season in a decade.
It was only fitting his last game in Stockton showcased every improvement he’s brought to the Tigers. Tripp scored a team-high 29 points in Pacific’s 87-74 win over Santa Clara.
Tripp was one of four seniors, along with Austin Vereen, Gary Chivichyan and Shaquillo Fritz honored on senior night.
