Brooks started her collegiate career at Southern Methodist University prior to coming to Panola College. 

Panola College head coach Alex Furr has had three former players go on to sign with the Trojans. 

"Jayla made a smart decision coming to Panola. She got a lot stronger on and off the floor in her short time here. She was able to gain a lot of experience which led to immense confidence.  She has everything it takes to compete at the NCAA Division I level." Furr said. "She has positively impacted our program and will be missed. We wish her the best!"
