Referring to her time at Wheaton, Jordan writes, "There were many matches and tournaments that were meaningful, but some of my favorite memories were off the court with the tennis team, connecting and bonding. We became a family, and it was a truly special time."  Regarding lessons learned competing at Wheaton, Jordan mentions sportsmanship and confidence. "Always treat your opponent with respect, be a good loser and a good winner. Learn to handle both success and failure with grace and believe in yourself and your ability."  Finally, Jordan writes, "Tennis has always been more to me than just the game. It has helped me to form some pretty special friendships from childhood to even now, well into adulthood, and I am grateful for that."  Jordan graduated with a bachelor's degree in communications. She is the mom to Grace (age 7) and Trey (age 5), is working in interior design, and is in the process of getting her real estate license.
