The Dominican Lacrosse Program is very excited to announce Jackson Gradstein (Temecula Valley High School, '23, California) has Verbally Committed to continue his education and lacrosse career at Dominican University. Jackson is fast, has a strong shot, and he is a hard worker and plays with an edge to his game. Jackson will bring a lot to the Penguins class of 2027. Jackson is having a breakout senior season. Through 7 games Jackson has 11 goals, 9 assists, and 5 hits helping his team be ranked 6th in the D2 Southern Section. Jackson has bay area roots. Jackson also played for Coach Tim Fox in the first summer of the Rockslide Lacrosse Club. Jackson has been playing lacrosse for only 4 years, but his inline hockey background helped him adapt to the game quickly. Coach Sammy stated, "We are very excited to add a player like Jackson to the Penguins for the 2023-2024 season. Jackson is hard working, he never gives up on a play, and during his breakout senior year has developed a strong L/R dodge and a howitzer of an outside shot. Jackson plays with an edge to his game and knows when to give out a hit and make a play. Jackson plays smart, he battles hard, and is an offensive threat every time he touches the ball." Welcome to the Penguins Jackson! Look out for Jackson signing day! Go Penguins!
