History of the Jefferson Girls' Soccer Program
The Jefferson Girls Soccer program began in 1977. The first three seasons were not affiliated with the MSHSL, but records are included on this page as this is an important part of our program's history.
1980 was the first official season for Jefferson and JHS won the State Championship that year. This was followed by State Championships in 1982 and 1984. The Jaguars have been to the State Tournament eight times in the program's history.
