Bloomington Jefferson looked strong at the Jefferson Jaguar Jamboree. The Jaguars were led by senior all-state soccer players, and D1 soccer recruits, Alex Koller and Lauren Sommers. 6-0 Sophomore sensation Anna Smith is looking to have a big year in her second year in the Jags starting lineup. A strong group of underclassmen is lead by ninth grade guard Brittney Scherber, an open enrollment student from Prior Lake, and fellow ninth grade guard Cassie Anderson, who was a starting guard on the Bethany Academy varsity team as an 8th grader last season. 8th grader Brooke Fritzlar also looked strong in her varsity debut off the bench for the Jaguars.
