Coach Hopkins’ Take
“We recruited Jaxson heavily out of high school and were disappointed when he chose another school. However, in limited minutes he showed what a dangerous striker he can be scoring against national champion Washington and NCAA quarterfinalist Portland. His work rate, mentality, and ability to get his shot off in the box all will allow him to take a step forward in which should be a breakout sophomore campaign.”
