Kuyper College Men's JV Basketball

Another season is on the horizon, and we couldn't be more excited!

Kuyper College Athletics is thrilled to welcome back a familiar face to the court, announcing alumnus Zamire “Z” Jackson as the new Head Coach for the Men’s JV Basketball program.

A proud 2025 graduate, Jackson’s history with Kuyper is deeply rooted in relationship-building, leadership, and service. He originally arrived on campus with a passion to play basketball, but also ultimately formed lasting bonds with teammates, coaches, faculty, and staff as a student-athlete along the way.

Jackson’s leadership experience extends well beyond his playing days. He joins the coaching staff with valuable experience already under his belt, having previously served as the Head JV Coach at Comstock Park High School, where he excelled in developing young talent and managing game strategy.

In addition to his new coaching whistle, Jackson holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Leadership from Kuyper and works full-time on campus as the Bookkeeper in the college's Business Office, managing daily financial operations. Jackson brings a unique blend of campus pride, professional excellence, and tactical coaching experience back to the hard-court this season.
