Despite dealing with a knee injury, Jaques was undefeated on the year, culminating in a second straight title at the Class 6A state meet, where she launched a meet-record throw of 47-3. An All-State softball player in the fall for Moore High, she was the 2024-25 Daily Oklahoman Athlete of the Year for all sports.
