01 Feb 2025 Jordan Rodgers – Mount Vernon-Enola (501 Basketball Team 2025)

Jordan Rodgers will never forget winning her first state championship ring. Taking down a talented Mansfield team in the finals, the versatile senior created a basketball memory with her teammates that will last a lifetime.

“Our girls had a lot of fun moments during the whole tournament,” she said. “By learning to love one another, we came together when it was the most important.”

“Jordan was a great teammate for us last year,” Mt. Vernon-Enola Head Coach Adam Carlton said. “She always worked hard, cheered on our older kids and never complained.”

Off to a hot start this season, Rodgers and the Warhawks continue to prove why they’re the team to beat in Class 2A.

“This season, our goal is to make it back to state by overcoming our weaknesses,” she said. “I want to be remembered as a role player who did the little things so that my teammates can do what they do best.”

The daughter of a basketball coach, Rodgers understands that competing for the crown means doing the little things right.

“Jordan is always willing to do the little things and never wants recognition for it,” Carlton said. “She plays tough and is one of our most consistent players.”

Off the court, Rodgers runs cross country and track and field and is involved with Future Business Leaders of America, Family, Career and Community Leaders of America, Beta Club and Student Council. 

She plans to pursue a Bachelor’s in psychology from the University of Central Arkansas with dreams of becoming a psychiatrist.
