JODY SCHAEFFER
Assumption High School
Louisville, Kentucky
Schaeffer led Assumption to the 2024 Kentucky State Championship and a final ranking of #6 in the West/Mid-West Region. The Rockets finished the season 19-6-3 with their only in-state loss coming to the defending state champions CAL. The two would tie their second meeting, and Assumption ultimately got a win late in the season to win the third matchup. Schaeffer challenged her team this season with a highly competitive schedule playing top teams from 9 different states over their 28 games, including matches at the High School National Invitational, Virginia Beach, and competition against top Illinois, Ohio, and Missouri teams. Assumption’s 2024 State Championship, a 3-2 win over rival Sacred Heart Academy, is their 3rd title in Schaeffer’s 7 years as Head Coach.
