PORTLAND, Ore. — The Portland State women's basketball team just got stronger in the post as Jordyn Smith, a 6-2 incoming sophomore forward, signed with the Vikings Thursday.
 
Smith, a Tigard, Ore., native who won a 2025 OSAA 6A state title with Tualatin High School, comes to the Vikings after a successful freshman year at NCAA Division II Cal Poly Humboldt. She earned Freshman of the Year and First-Team All-Conference honors this past season while leading the California Collegiate Athletic Association in field goal percentage (.497), rebounds per game (10.8), blocks per game (3.1) and double-doubles (15).
 
"Jordyn is a double-double machine. She will be our anchor on the low block with her size and athleticism. She gives us an inside presence, paint touches on the offensive end, and a rim protector on defense. Jordyn is an elite rebounder on both sides of the ball. We are thrilled to bring her back home," head coach Karlie Burris said of Smith.
 
Smith averaged a double-double as a freshman at Cal Poly Humboldt, adding 14.0 points to her 10.8 rebounds per game. She twice scored a season-high 24 points – against Central Washington on Nov. 15, 2025, and at Stanislaus State on Feb. 7, 2026. She grabbed a season-high 17 rebounds to go with 14 points at home against Stanislaus State on Dec. 4, 2025.
 
In high school, Smith made the all-state second team as a senior when she helped Tualatin to the 6A state title. Smith averaged a tournament-best 11.0 rebounds per game during that run. That included a game-high 15 rebounds (seven offensive) in the championship game as she and Tualatin beat a Clackamas team that featured Jazzy Davidson – the 2026 Big Ten Freshman of the Year at USC – as well as fellow incoming transfer and future PSU teammate Sara Barhoum, 63-58.
 
Smith represents the second player from that Tualatin championship team to sign with the Vikings. Alex Padilla, an incoming freshman, signed with the Vikings in the fall.
