Woods is set to make plenty of noise on the hardwood this winter before heading to play football at South Dakota State. The standout three-sport athlete brings elite athleticism to the floor, the kind that turns games into highlight reels. Woods is a high-flying finisher who can throw down electrifying dunks and soar for alley-oops with ease. Beyond the flash, he’s a relentless rebounder, a rim protector, and a lockdown defender who plays with power, grit, and intensity on every possession. While his football future is bright, don’t be surprised if his final basketball season is just as memorable. Jhace is poised to be one of Class AA’s most exciting breakout players this winter. I think Mr. Woods is going to have a tremendous senior season.

Woods came back from injury in week 3 and he has had an immediate impact on the Warriors. Jhace has three games under his belt this season and has scored a TD in each. He draws a ton of attention from the defense and opens up space for other areas of the offense. Against #1 Lincoln this past week, Washington nearly pulled the upset, but they lost 33-31. Jhace had 5 receptions for 79 yards and a TD. His touchdown was a super athletic 1-handed highlight-reel grab. In hoops, Jhace will make noise with blocked shots and jaw-dropping slam dunks. He has a freakish vertical and will put many opponents on posters this winter.

6’5 with a 44 inch vert- If you haven’t seen this kid play ball, do it this season. Woods is on his way to be a Jackrabbit football star, but his raw athleticism will be on full display for one more season of round ball. Highlight real dunks, stat sheets filled with double doubles, and a bunch of coaches wondering how they will contain the guy.
