Houston junior Sterling Jackson was named Saturday to the Class 3 all-state baseball team. Jackson received honorable mention as a DH/utility player.
Jackson, left-handed hitting first baseman, led the Tigers in batting (.405), on-base percentage (.516) and runs batted in (28). He tied for the team lead with 30 hits and a pair of home runs. Jackson struck out just six times in 93 plate appearances.
Jackson delivered a crushing blow in the Class 3 District 10 championship game with a grand slam against Mountain Grove. The Tigers won 15-5 in five innings for their first title since 2007.
In late April, Jackson had a walk-off two-run single to beat the Panthers.
