The Lady Dragons won 10 games last season, but won the ones that mattered the most. With a largely talented yet young team, coach Greg Brown did what he always does – gets the most out of his team. Jefferson rode to a surprising Region Championship and playoff appearance. Now, with everyone back (and still young with no seniors), the girls will look to build off that momentum to a hopeful deep run in 2023-24.
