Trading the Great Lakes for the Great Plains, Jaida Hampton is a player of poise. Originally, from Lansing, Michigan, Hampton is known for her swiftness, ball-handling skills, and calm demeanor.
As a freshman last season, she appeared in 26 of Wichita State’s 30 games, starting 13 of them.
She averaged 6.6 pointes a game, and had nine games with 10 or more points. But Hampton is humble and quick to focus on the team aspect of the game.
“The family aspect — the coaches and how they treat us — I feel like that’s why a lot of people choose to come here,” Hampton said.
