She us not listed on Hoopgurlz or Blue Star, but is 133rd on Prospects Nation.

The following passage from the article linked below seems germane:

"Beyond that, Jefferson has the kind of size (6 feet) and athleticism and skill set that adds up to enormous, multi-position upside at the college level.

Villanova has offered. So have St. Joseph’s, Penn State, Seton Hall, Rutgers, Colorado, Boston College, James Madison and West Virginia. Notre Dame and Vanderbilt, among many others, have been involved.

Even UConn, the NCAA women’s gold standard, has made contact.

Last summer, Jefferson made it to the final 32 from 133 players trying out for the U.S. Under-16 national team. She figures to get another shot, at the Under-17 team, this summer."

I do not believe that the Irish are presently recruiting her.

On top of what FA reported, she was named Penn Player of the Year by USA Today (see below for first team). Alli Campbell was named Gatorade Player of the Year.

She also plays with Alli Campbell, Maddie Burke and Kylee Watson on the Philly Belles AAU Team...see a link below.

Like FA, I'm not aware that she's currently on ND's radar right now, but it seems like she's got a host of D1 opportunities.
