WNBA Draft



Chosen in the 3rd Round by the Detroit Shock in 2004 (32nd pick overall)

Jenn is one of five Wolverines to be drafted into the WNBA, joining Stacey Thomas (23rd pick in 2000), Pollyanna Johns (27th pick in 1998), Alayne Ingram (44th pick in 2002), Anne Thorius (58th pick in 2001) and Tabitha Pool (23rd pick in 2005)

Jenn is the second highest pick ever chosen from the Mid-Michigan area, behind Mason's Kristin Haynie, who was selected with the 9th pick in 2005.

Although Jenn didn't make the final Shock roster for 2004, she signed a contract to play professionally for Delta ICP in Slovakia for the 2004-2005 season.

Jenn completed her first season with Delta ICP as the team's leading scorer. She finished as the 12th leading scorer in the Euro League averaging 15.6 points and 6.0 rebounds per game. Delta ICP won the Slovak league title in 2005, and Jenn was chosen as the MVP of the league. She scored 31 points and pulled down 11 rebounds in the decisive Game 5 victory in the league finals.

In late July of 2005, Jenn signed a contract to finish out the season with the New York Liberty in the WNBA.
