A 6-foot-2 forward from Johnston, Iowa, ESPN lists her as the No. 82 overall prospect in the country. She’s the second pledge in the Hokies’ 2025 class, joining Watauga, N.C., guard Kate Sears, whom ESPN ranks 85th.
Jenkins originally committed to Marquette last October when Duffy was the head coach but reopened her recruitment after the coaching change. Less than three months later, she committed to Tech after visiting.

With the addition of Jenkins, the Hokies have 11 scholarship players for the 2025-26 season. Here’s the program’s future scholarship breakdown:
