Baldwin Park defensive back Demetrius Jackson, an All-Area selection this past season, has committed to Portland St.

Jackson originally gave a verbal commitment to UTEP, but looked elsewhere when the Miners wanted to gray shirt him.

Aram’s take: Congrats to Demetrius, who was one of the most electrifying players around last season. And it will be good to have him on hand for our Signing Day special coming up this week.
